Twenty Freaking Four

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Warning! 24 Season 5 spoilers~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ok what in the stinking world! First off Palmer gets popped in the throat, then Michelle gets blown up in a car bomb and Tony is on his death bed, and now that Jack has saved the day we have Samwise Gamgee running the show in CTU! This is ridiculous! It's not like I was standing on my couch during the rescue scene tonight or yelling "WHAT IN THE FREAKING WORLD!" at the top of my lungs when Jack gave himself up to save Derek. I mean, come on! Who do they think they're entertaining? Like I really wanted to wait another week to find out what happens next. Yeah, let's see if you can kill off someone else with as much character as David Palmer while leaving Logan alive and well with his idiotic self-centered agendas and with a stinking mole thwarting everything. This is show drives me crazy. Oh and how I love it...

Question of the Minute

Coke or Dr. Pepper?

Google Earth

If you haven't checked out Google Earth yet you should. It is official and no longer in beta which makes it cooler than ever. So if you downloaded it before you need to do it again to get the official version. If Amy McRee knew I had this I would probably have received more than just an email from her!!

Response from Amy McRee

I've finally made it! Amy responded to my email. Who said celebreties are out of touch with their fan base?! Try to contain your jealousy.....

Hi Matt,
Thanks for taking the time to pass along such a kind email!
There are some wonderful people running the Oklahoma City Hispanic Chamber.. I am truly proud to be a part of it.
The Chamber has grown so much.. and the members are so diverse.. it is really nice to see!

I hope you continue watching!
I truly appreciate your words of encouragement.. it means a lot.

God bless,

Death Penalty

Regardless of your stand on the death penalty, you need to read this post by JD. As he states, it obviously isn't light reading but is most definitely something we all need to hear. This is one of the most touching blog posts I've personally ever read.

Letter to Amy McRee

So I guess I'm stealing a page out of my friend Blakewell's book (and I obviously can't live up to his high standards), but I was sitting here tonight with Holly, Lindsy, and Jamie when we got on a discussion of Amy McRee, who works for News 9 here in OKC. Actually they were a little more interested in Jed Castles but that's another story.... So anyway we were looking at Ms. McRee's profile on NewsOK.com and we were quite touched by her well-rounded life so I decided to type up a quick word of encouragement for our fine anchor. I can't wait for her reply!

Ms. McRee,

I was just browsing the NewsOK website while doing a little research on Zach Daniel with 3 of my friends Lindsy, Holly and Jamie (who think he's hot by the way but not as hot as his partner in crime, Jed Castles) when we stumbled across your profile. I know this is coming out of left field but I'd just like to say that we all think you do a spectacular job on Channel 9 and it's really inspiring to know that you are a true Oklahoman, through and through. Holly said, "I knew I liked her!" when we read the part about you being on the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce. I think it really touched us all to realize that despite your busy schedule, you still make time to look out for the best interest of other Hispanics such as yourself. You are to be commended for this! In closing, I would like to say that we are all honored to be able to watch you on News 9, and although the slogan has long passed, you really are "The Spirit of Oklahoma!"

Your Loyal Viewer,
Matt
