So the History Channel, which I have long lamented as being entirely unwatchable, is making me like it again.  As a history major from college, I want to love it - like CourtTV, which I want to love, but seriously hate - but with it’s emphasis on Nazis, Hitler, and blowin’ stuff up, I haven’t been able to.  But starting with Ice Road Truckers this past year, and continuing with random things that I’ve stumbled upon while flipping channels like Star Wars: Secrets Revealed, suddenly I love the History Channel.  The upcoming previews for the new year I saw while watching The States look exciting and non-war related too so I can’t wait!

argh - word press ate my post! anyway, the power’s out in miraloma park, but I’m thumbing away on here treo and thanks to our gas stove we can make dinner, we’ve got a couple battery backups so we’ve got a lamp and mp3 player going, and I can surf the net on my treo, but deep down I just want to watch tv.
