My neurotic fear of being spoiled for the upcoming season is getting out of hand. Today my coworker asked me “So, what did you think about Obama…”, but I heard, “So, what did you think about Adama…”, and I panicked. I did the whole fingers in my ears, “LALALALALALANONONONONOAHHHHHHHSTOPTALKINGIDON’TWANTTOKNOW” thing, and she looked at me [...]

John Paul Stevens will turn 88 in less than a month.
I get that it will be difficult [...]

In honor of the countdown to season four of Battlestar Galactica(less than a week away!), I have changed my header. I’m so ridiculously excited about a new episode, I can barely contain myself.
