Assad What a guy

He probably saved the president's life.

And on the previews... Reed is SOOOO in love with Tom. It is a tender love story!

Hubby said...

The bomb in the podium that Reed is about to try didn't work on Hitler, unfortunately. Not that I'm comparing Hitler to the 28-year old president.

Doesn't Anyone Wonder Where Tom Is?

And won't the Dry Erase Marker also kill Reed? I'm having a hard time with this whole thing.

The love fest between Principal Wood and Assad is interesting...Assad must have resolved his street cred issues. What happened to the Ambassador?

Aha, finally, someone asks after Tom! Principal Wood may only be 28, but he wasn't born yesterday.

And neither was Tom -- he is about to die a painful steamy death trying to warn the President!

"M", "M", "M"...

Adults don't use the "potty"!

But you're right about Chloe. Mom always said to just try.

Watch Out for the Rogue Office Supplies

Wait, they are going to kill the president with a red dry erase marker?

I don't get it!

Morris...


He is the only person that needs to go potty!!! I was so excited to see them using the potty. And why does it say MEN on the inside of the men's room? Chloe should just go try. I think that she will feel better.

Finally, Chloe is Back to Her Old Self

Only stupid! How could she have just believed Morris??????

Once this day is over, she had better get herself to an Al-Anon meeting. She needs to review all of the ways that an addict will snow you!

Ugh! He 's gonna shave isn't he

I don't want to watch that! And WHERE did Jack get a suit!!! I understand where he got the tshirt and jeans, but the suit??

And where is the exprez's wife???

Nadia, Stupid or Evil?

You're right, it is extremely slow. Doesn't Nadia have any real work to do, other than just watching every little thing that Morris does?

And Logan,maybe he really has found his faith. Was that the presidential tie clip he just pulled out of his manly jewelry box?

And where did Jack get the suit? Are he and Logan the same size? Or did they stock the helicopter with a suit for him?

And now, Chloe finds out that Morris lied. (And his sponsor left the program? What does that mean?)

Chloe's scowl

The Hubby thinks that she is constipated and needs an enema. I think if she keeps that scowl up, her face is going to stick that way, no matter what is causing the scowl!

I miss Eggar!

This is getting way slow again. We have had only one perimeter and I don't think that we have had any Dammits! I"m starting to multitask, thus why I missed the phone number that Chloe gave as her call back #

Bill is Like a Wet Noodle

Is someone with some backbone gonna get there and take over?

Shouldn't Karen be ariving around now, in time to get blowed up with Bill?

I Noticed it was a Real Phone Number

So this is DH pretending not to watch?

Chloe's Call back number!

If you call 310-597-3781, you can actually speak with crew members from the cast of 24. I wasn't paying attention to that, but the Hubby googled the number and found this bloggers site, January 20th update (Scroll down ). So if you have questions about the story line, call it up.

He's Not Just Moral

President Logan has reconnected with his Faith!

Back Channels

Jack, you have nothing to lose, You don't really have a job with CTU so I think that you could do some illegal stuff with the ex-Prez, the more moral and mature ex-prez

Day at the races

This is no time to place bets at the race track with the former prez!

Morris is Lying!

Morris didn't call his sponsor. Can't Chloe see that he isn't up to his job?

And now she's checking up on him!

Split screen montage! And now, President Logan. Is Mrs. President there? She was the best thing about last season.

Where did Logan get this intel? (He doesn't look like he's been eating well, or exercising regularly.) And he's still connected with the Russians!!!

Can you say head injury

They did a great job in the make up on Morris. Maybe he has a subdural hematoma that could affect your reasoning and personality.

Tom.. no he is in the little boys room

That would be the perfect excuse for Reed to use with melinda! He had to go potty! For the first time on 24 they could use the bathroom!

1002 Uses for Duct Tape!

"M" was right; duct tape is involved.

And now these toadies are going to try to sell Tom into suicide by duct tape?

And by "sparing" Tom's life and duct taping him to another pole, guess what, another bad guy confessing in front of just anyone!

More Duct tape

We are going to need more duct tape to restrain a mathematician from Numb3rs.

I think that Reed is in love with Tom Lennox!

Perimeter *AND* and debriefing

Find Dad. He'll explain it in the helicopter.

Rena oops Marily and Josh... Josh I'll explain everything and that I'll be a really good daddy to you. No, Jack he reminds me of you Jack LOL!!!! Smoldery looks.

He really is tender yet ruthless!

Eew!

Gross! Jack, stop hitting on Marilyn!

Set up a perimeter around your libido!!!!

Perimeter!

I will say no more!

Show a little more emotion

Some how I think that there would be a lot of hollering between Assad and the Ambassador. Or is Assad going to totally turn his speech around and tell the other terrorist to fight and no put down their arms.

Maybe Gradenko Isn't Hot Enough

to be a successful 24 terrorist.

"M", you may be right. I might have to take that bet.

And what's up with Gradenko anyways, sartorially speaking? He's definitely got the bad facial hair of both Jack and President Logan...and the floppy hairdo of the Evil Phil Bauer.

(People, can you say, "hair gel", stat!!!! Maybe Jack has some in his man bag.)

Ooo, A mysterious payload

Could that be a biological toxin?
Gradenko is going to get done in by Fayed I predict.

Who's in Charge?

Gradenko or Fayed?

And, another Balding terrorist Babe! Gradenko breaks the rule that all terrorists have to be hot smoldery guys.

And the Ambassador is back? I don't trust that guy. (Maybe he's the guy the Evil Veep is sending in?)

Bloop, Bloop!

"M", "M"! It's time for 24!

Previously in the Last 10 Days of "A"'s Life

Recently, I visited a new doctor, and was asked to sign Mount Sinai Hospital's privacy form. The form states that I have:
a right to an "accounting of disclosures", which is a list with information about how the institution has shared your information with others outside Mount Sinai...
One thing that the accounting list will not include? "Disclosures made to federal officials for national security and intelligence activities."

On the train home, I listened to the announcement that the NYC transit police might inspect my bags.

Um, why would federal officials want to hear the results of, say, my pap smear?

Could it something to do with a medical interrogation?

This kind of crap, which I assume comes from the so-called Patriot Act (um, if I weren't hiding anything in my uterus,I guess I wouldn't be concerned?) is absolutely affected by the fact that we watch this stuff on TV and think it is okay.

As a New Yorker I hold Law & Order as one of our civic treasures. In fact, as I left the doctor's, I was stopped on the sidewalk on the way to the train so that Eric Bogosian could be filmed getting into an SUV.

But New York's TV finest routinely violate the civil rights of perps and skels every week. (And if you multiply this by all of the Law & Orders that still seem to be on the air, and the reruns on TNT or whichever channel seems to play L&O 24 X 7, it is probably happening thousands of times a week!)

And finally, the NY Times is finally allowing permalinks! Therefore, no matter when you read this, you can read about the movement towards using x-rays to search people at airports. (Total Recall, anyone?)

"Hey Stan, d'you think that looks like Tampax, or C-4?"

But I digress.

Apparantly written by women bloggers (Karen Heller and Susan Young?), 24-Jack Bauer has a recent post about 24's torture methods, and whether some (no doubt rogue) agents of the US government might have copied the methods in real (not TV) life.

People, TV is both our mirror and our leader. As much as I am oddly attracted by 24, I'm also concerned.
