As the 2011 Women's World Cup draws to a close tomorrow, I will be watching Team USA take on Team Japan. I've loved watching this year, perhaps because, with a smaller field, it's taken a whole lot less time than the men's cup last year. Or maybe it's because Team USA is not only still in the running but favored to win. We've had many exciting ( Read more... )

Happy July! I hope the summer is being good to all of you!

This post is a relatively small one; I've had these sitting on my hard drive for a few weeks now and wanted to get them up. First, we have the brilliant Italian singer Elisa Toffoli. With her is the Croatian sensation, actor (and former ER star) Goran Višnjić, who is in the upcoming ( Read more... )

I am so glad that Covert Affairs is back for season 2. More than that, I was excited upon seeing the preview for next week's episode that everyone's favorite Mossad agent (with the possible exception of Eli David - but that's another show entirely), Eyal Lavin, will be back. I thought he was a great counterpoint to Annie in season 1's "No Quarter ( Read more... )

Oh Bones, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways. You have great characters. You have talented guest-stars. You have wonderful story arcs. You can find the balance between the heart-breaking and the hilarious all in one hour. Case in point: the sixth season's penultimate episide, "The Hole in the Heart". We had everything from Vincent Nigel- ( Read more... )

I'm not quite sure what happened to the original entry with these icons, other than the fact that it seems to have disappeared. In all likelihood, I accidentally deleted it when editing something, but I'm reposting it if anyone wants the icons.

There are some season 1 episodes of Bones that are very serious. Then there are those that always manage to make me laugh. "The Man in the Wall" is of the latter variety. I love seeing Brennan in the urban music scene, from her "knowledge" of rap music ("I've done my googling!") to the suspects' reactions to her ("Where'd you find her?").

Summer is finally here and with it comes the return of USA Network's Covert Affairs. I fell in love with this show when season 1 aired last year, and I can't wait for season 2 to start in June!

Happy End-of-April! To those of you who have "enjoyed" a wet few weeks, hang in there! Tomorrow brings a new month and hopefully some relief. There's not a whole lot in this post, and what is here is fairly haphazard, but hopefully you can find something to enjoy!

Hello everyone! Short post this time, mainly to let you all know that, yes, I am indeed alive. It's difficult to believe that it's nearly April already (where has this year gone?) and summer will be just around the corner ( Read more... )

Happy President's Day! I hope everyone is managing to stay warm during this crazy winter!

This is a fairly short icon dump; I've got some of The Office (US) from the episode 2.01 "The Dundies" (one of my favorites), Laura Pausini's video to Vivimi/Viveme (catch it here), as well as Tiziano Ferro, who celebrates his 31st birthday today. With the ( Read more... )
