ksmithSchizy weather this week. 60s on Monday. 90F on Tuesday. Back to the 60s on Wednesday. 80s today. 60s expected for the weekend. If you have a sinus condition, I would say you're feeling it.
Roofers dropped off the primed fascia and took down the old rotted boards. I assume they will finish tomorrow, if rain isn't an issue.
Houses know when you have money. But sometimes they don't care whether you have it or not.
I had wanted to see the New Look Hawaii 5-0 because James Marsters was the bad guy. I missed it the night it premiered, so I watched it tonight via On Demand. Good dialogue at times, and James Caan's son--I assume it's his son because there is a resemblance but I forgot names--is a good actor. But the story moved so quickly and the camera work was such that I barely recognized Marsters. They lost me with the "no rules" approach--no reason to finesse and investigate when you can just beat the answers out of people. The old series--cue creaky rocking chair here--had its flaws, but there was often a chess-like give and take between McGarrett and the villain--especially Wo Fat--and I'm seeing the violence here but not so much with the chess. I think it's going to try to take up where 24 left off. Could be wrong, but I doubt I will watch it again...unless they bring back Wo Fat.

PS I like "Bones" for the dialogue as they talk about topics not usually found on tv shows and love Masterpiece Mystery. Come to think of it, Inspector Lewis is a spinoff of Morse and the creators are very respectful of the source material unlike Kurtzman & co.
