24

If you haven't turned on the TV in maybe 2 weeks, you probably didn't know that Jack Bauer and his silly antics resumed Sunday for Season 7 aka Day 7. Those witty writers. I started asking myself a few questions during the build up of previews. One, should I watch? I remembered enjoying season 1. Got excited for Season 2 and was a little blown away by the outlandish plots( something that FOX does extremely well) and just missed shows due to practice/games most likely. Second, what is Jack Bauer's salary? He's got to have a wealth of overtime.

Answer to the first question is Yes, I watched it. I actually liked the first 2 hour block on Sunday. But then, FOX throws another 2hrs at you Monday night. Who the hell as that many hours to devote to 24 besides maybe this fat dog who can do nothing but move away from the TV.

So, I missed this Monday and I will further debate whether it is worth my time.

But in honor of Jack Bauer and to actually propose my single day is crazier than his...I will document my Wednesday, January 14, 2009.
