Hello World!

I can't believe 45 people have been killed over a caricature. A caricature.

Human beings will never cease to amaze me. We're basically the same grunting, single-minded, rampageous Cro Magnons we were 35,000 years ago, but with iPods.

This Week On TV

  • Last night at 10:00pm, CSI: Miami's "Nailed" aired again on CBS. Here's how the network described it:

    "A woman, who was just about to sign her divorce papers, is found shot to death with a nail gun in her soon-to-be ex-husband's new home. Suspicion falls on her ex-husband and his new fiancée; however, when Det. Ryan Wolfe begins to follow the evidence, he is shot in the eye with a nail gun. Now, as one of their own lies wounded, the team must find out who killed the woman and who may have ended Wolfe's career as a CSI."

  • CSI: New York returns this week after a brief hiatus with a rerun of "City Of The Dolls". This is what you can expect from it:

    "When the body of a man is discovered buried among a pile of detached doll parts, Mac, Lindsay, Det. Maka and Danny are called to one of their most bizarre crime scenes yet. The team must piece together the clues and doll parts to discover who murdered the store's owner. Meanwhile, a beautiful waitress is found dead in a studio apartment recently bestowed to her by one of her patrons."

  • And on Thursday night at 9/8c, the CSI episode "Still Life" will air. If you missed it the first time, here's what you can expect from it:

    "Without substantial evidence, the CSIs begin to wonder if a kidnapping actually took place at all. But when the child turns up unharmed at a local convenience store with a couple claiming to be his parents, Grissom and his team must use what little forensic evidence is available to solve the mystery of what actually happened to the first mother's son."

In addition to the above episodes on CBS, cable channel SpikeTV will of course continue its daily CSI repeats.
