Jack's Back

My favorite current TV show "24" starts this weekend. Even though The Realm of Possibility may not be the place for it, I thought I'd plug it anyway. Sunday night, there's the 2-hour premiere, and another show follows on Monday, Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. Look it up in your local listings for date and time.

But this isn't a show you want to jump on in Week 8 since it supposedly goes in real time, although some liberty is taken with that. For my money, it's the best show out there.

And for hilarious show reviews (although if you are offended by some profanity it might not be the place for you) of "24" and other popular shows, you might want to check this snarky site out.

Watch "24." Ditch the Housewives.

What do Rich and Dave Barry have in common?

I'll give you a hint: It ain't being published authors.

The haircut would be a good guess, but since most of don't know what Dave Barry's hair looks like probably not where you were going.

Give up: It's apparently the show 24, I know, I know you're kicking yourself for not remembering that this was in fact a comment to a post Rich did about 24.

Well, here's Dave's post about the same thing.

Alright, anybody see the first two hours? Did I lead anyone astray? Jam-packed with action from Minute 1 to Minute 120, and there's more coming tonight.

It's too good to miss.

Scot,

In business, that's called a high-classed problem. Why not tape/DVR/TiVo it?

By "it", of course, I mean you could tape yourself lovingly tucking in your kids, reading them a goodnight story, and kissing their cheeks. Then, on "24" night, you send them to bed and tell them to watch the tape of all that good stuff until they drift off to sleep. It's just like being there.

[I'm just kidding, in case anyone should think me so callous. Obviously, I mean tape "24" and watch it later. At least, I think I mean that.]

No, but like with a football game or college b-ball, I always record the show after something I really want to watch as well, just in case there's some time slippage.

But if you're sticking up bunny ears on your TV, I get you. Just live with your confliction and watch "24".

Scot,

You're welcome.

Scot,

Just playing around with my comment above (although you are very welcome). Awesome story. Perfect for the post. Stories like that make The Realm what it is.

And I have no earthly idea what that is.

But I like it!
