So much for Battlestar Galactica

WTF is wrong with SciFi channel? In yet another boneheaded move, they have left the series with a 10 month gap. That channel is clearly run by morons. I swear, I’ve never seen such stupid shit. First they move it to Sundays with commercials that are straight from Dawsons Creek. Now they leave it hanging until NEXT YEAR.

Do they really, honestly, expect the series to recover from that? How stupid can one bunch of suits be? The company that runs this channel (and USA and some others) defies any sort of logic when it comes to managing their series. They totally ruin the continuity of a show then cancel it when it “fails to bring in the numbers”. Well, HELL, if viewers can’t find the frelling thing because you’ve moved it then you take it off the frelling AIR for almost a year, DUH, ya think you might lose people?

Just DAMN.

They canceled Farscape. They canceled Stargate SG-1. They’ve ruined Battlestar. Atlantis will be next, but that’s no great loss. I think they should just rename the channel Bad Movies R Us and be done with it. Sci-Fi my ASS.

Guess we’re left to watch our last episodes of Stargate SG-1 and move on. Fucking assholes. I think I shall switch to BBC America. They have some good stuff and although they have funky seasons, at least the content is there.

FRELL. I liked Battlestar. I know I’ve said it before, but I really do detest Sci-Fi. They are run by suits who are clueless. Anytime they touch a sci-fi show, you can be sure they’ll trash it.

FRELL.

BMI numbers – FEH!

Ok, so to have a “healthy” BMI, a 5’4″ female should weigh no more than 145#.

I’ll wait for the hysterical laughter to subside…

WTF?

I’ve not seen 145 since I was around 21 years old!! So, this means that I’m doomed to an unhealthy BMI for the rest of my life. Good thing I think BMI is a totally unreasonable way to judge health. :-) The insurance companies wield it as a way to charge higher rates, which invalidates it completely for me.

If get down to the weight I’m going for (more than 150, I can tell you!), my BMI will still be in the “overweight” range, which is totally moronic. Hell, if I lost down to 150, that’s in the “overweight” range!! BULLSHIT!!

Excuse me while I go take a phenteramine… :->

Tree Sex!! BLARGH!

Yah, the hoarse voice of Sunday quickly became the nasty bout of allergies that I’m still sick with today! I’ve not been sick like this in years!

I’m not the only one – Ben has been sick as shit since last week and a girl at the Moon was also croaking like a frog from it the other day. I don’t know what the difference is this year, but it’s kicking my ass!

Nick is fine this year. He was the sick one last year. Weird.

So, I’ll get back to you when I am not coughing up a lung, k?
