Your Guaranteed Invitation to the Lint Ball

All my ideas are balled up in my sweaty palm dangled before the cart. I keep on moving, pretending they'll be used in a future art project or story, until found wasting away in the corner like dust bunnies with carrot breath, consumed but ultimately useless.
Attempting to concieve a child through science with my partner, both working 40 hrs+ a week, bombarded by holidays. Pardon the construction as I turn up the heat, the lint tray should pluck out some good sh*t that's been pillaging my brain.

Triple Threat


L Word is the new Little House on the Prairie. This is not a joke. The two programs have many things in common. For instance, They are both produced by an egomaniac. Both are unrealistic, fun to mock, and sappy. The L Word is sexier, but Charles does run around with his shirt off.
The season finale for season 4 of LWord was classic Little House. Produced, directed, and written by Ilene Chaiken, Ilene has become the new triple threat producer to not only jump sharks, but also ruin good things, which not only ticks Martha Stewart off but also screws up the show, A La good ol' Landon. It was annoying when Landon tried to do it all by directing, producing and writing an episode because he always messed it up- juggling too many balls in the air.
Why oh god why does Chaiken think she can do better? Why does she insist on putting her stamp all over everything? You always know when these two wrote an episode- most of the time it sucks. At least Landon could act, and very good at that. Chaiken created the big L, but it's best when she stays away.
We finally made it to the final episode for season 4, and believe me, it's got Chaiken's mark all over it. Depressing lame plotlines, ruining great characters, and giving actors who don't suck the boot. (Hello? Chaiken? Guess What? Hot characters like Paige played by actresses who can actually act should not get the boot.) Chaiken gives all the good characters people actually like the screw job, meanwhile shining the camera on the ones we hate (hello? Nobody likes Tina. Really. And Chaiken's tainting Kit as well with this Bogus/Angus).
Her writing sucks for characters like Max, Paige, Alice, and 'Brit'. It's the twilight zone and Landon's at it again! Watch out! The TRIPLE THREAT!!!
