Evil Overlord List
I saw this link: http://www.eviloverlord.com/lists/overlord.html over in an article at io9 this evening. It is quite amusing, and an absolute must if you're planning to be an evil overlord and don't want those pesky hero types to show up and ruin your plans... -

Bemused...
Okay, so CX posted this picture over at Facebook that said, "Pick up the book nearest to you. Turn to page 45. The first sentence describes your sex life in 2012."

Tonight's Doctor Who
I'm really not sure about tonight's episode. I can't really say that it's going to be one of my favorites, even if it did involve a distant relation to an old series monster. But I didn't really care about any of the people trapped in the hotel (other than the Doctor, Amy & Rory, of course), so I didn't really feel sorry for their assorted fates ( ( Read more... ) -
