| Elais | hey matt |
| Elais | new lost, new alias, and a new tv show called 'eyes' |
| MattH | Hiya CM. |
| MattH | Eyes? |
| Elais | I think in the sense of 'private eyes' |
| MattH | Just checked out Tvtome. Doesn't seem that interesting - http://www.tvtome.com/tvtome/servlet/ShowMainServlet/showid-22366/ |
| MattH | On the other, it has excellent lead ins. |
| MattH | But up against Law & Order and one of the CSIs... |
| Elais | oh yeah |
| Elais | new L&O |
| Elais | I watch L&O:SVU sometimes |
| Elais | haven't watched either the miami or ny versions of CSI |
| Elais | rarely watch the original CSI these days |
| MattH | I watched about 2 episodes of CSI...had no interest in it whatsover. |
| Elais | when did you see those episodes? |
| MattH | Couple of years ago |
| MattH | Just not into crime shows anymore... |
| Elais | there is a glut of them |
| Elais | CSI and L&O have three variations each |
| MattH | Yeah...after a while they all start to look alike. |
| Elais | I watched the new tv show Kojak |
| Elais | it was alright, but didn't grab me |
| MattH | New Kojak? Ugh...there can be only one Kojak (Telly Savalas) |
| Elais | Ving Rhames is the new Kojak |
| Elais | I didn't have a problem with it because I never saw the original tv show |
| MattH | I only saw the show a couple of times, but I did meet Savalas once, when I worked as a Universal Studios Toll Booth Attendant. |
| Elais | did he love ya? |
| MattH | As he didn't have a pass, I didn't let him through the booth. This was about 2 months before he died...after he did people joked that I killed Telly. |
| MattH | So no, I doubt he loved me ;-) |
| Elais | LOL |
| Elais | any other famous people who didn't have a pass? |
| MattH | Van Damm...he would run the toll booth |
| Elais | Van Damm was once a Universal Studioes Toll Booth Attendant? |
| MattH | No...but he would come to the movies (to see his trailers, so he said) and wouldn't pay for parking. He then ran the booth,i.e. drove through without paying. There were no gatearms in the lanes, so it was doable. |
| Elais | gotcha |
| Elais | how long were you an attendant? |
| MattH | Six months or so as a parking attendant,1 year as a tollbooth attendant, 2 years as a tollbooth lead, then I was promoted into managment. |
| Elais | tollbooth lead? |
| MattH | Basically, you were in charge of a specific tollbooth and a couple of attendants, handling breaks, money-drops,etc. No disciplinary powers, though. |
| Elais | bummer |
| Elais | did you have power as management? |
| MattH | Hmm...looks like Christopher Eccleston is leaving the new Dr. Who...fears being typecast |
| Elais | too bad... |
| MattH | Some....I was the training supervisor and did a lot of HR work. |
| Elais | good thing people are used to having different actors play Dr Who |
| Elais | thought they already had their next guy lined up |
| MattH | Yeah...most last a little longer, though. |
| Elais | can't really blame Eccleston |
| MattH | Not yet. |
| Elais | it is entirely possible he might have been typecast |
| MattH | Well, actually I can. ;-) |
| MattH | If that is the case, he shouldn't have taken the job to start with. |
| MattH | It's not like he didn't know what Dr. Who entailed. |
| Elais | maybe he didnt' think it wouldn't do as well as it did |
| MattH | Yeah...still seems kind of tacky to me...but I don't think he signed any contract, so he is free to go. |
| MattH | BBC did renew the show for another 13 episodes though. |
| MattH | Hmmm....maybe they could get James Marsters..... |
| MattH | Or Anthony Stewart Head |
| Elais | ASH would be interesting |
| Elais | hope they are not going to kill off Boone on Lost |
| MattH | Boone the doctor? |
| Elais | Jack is the doctor |
| Elais | Boone is the guy who is with his stepsister Shannon |
| Elais | there has been strong hints that a main character will be killed off |
| MattH | How Joss of them... |
| Elais | oh boy, doesn't look good for our man Boone |
| Elais | boy, the guy who plays Locke is goooood tonight |
| Elais | now..onto Alias!! |
| MattH | So, did Boone bite the big one, or is it a cliffhanger? |
| Elais | cliffhanger |
| MattH | Hmmm...my guess is that he lives and someone else dies, then. |
| Elais | maybe |
| Elais | think this was ep 19 |
| Elais | only a few more to go |
| Elais | ooo, Sidney in a box |
| MattH | What is that? A new fast food chain /rimshot |
| Elais | ha |
| Elais | Sidney is trapped in some kind of coffin |
| MattH | Hmmm...was she dead and just been brought back to life? |
| Elais | nope |
| Elais | I doubt she will be punching her way out |
| MattH | Then what is she doing in a coffin? |
| Elais | think she was knocked out by some bad guys and put there |
| Elais | I'll be heading off to Houston on Saturday |
| MattH | Oh...did you get your ticket mess straightened out? |
| Elais | ticket mess? |
| Elais | yes |
| Elais | I'm having someone else pick up the ticket for me |
| MattH | I'm glad you were able to get it straightened out. |
| Elais | yeah, scared myself for a bit |
| Elais | now I just have to worry about the plane being on time |
| MattH | What airline? |
| Elais | according to the itinerary, the flight from Minneapolis to houston is on time 60% of the time |
| MattH | Well, your chances are good then. |
| Elais | I would have preferred 70 or 80 percent |
| Elais | how is work going? |
| MattH | Well, yeah.... |
| MattH | Could you do me a slight favor? Go to this picture, and tell me the hair color of the two girls at the bottom... http://www.the-leaky-cauldron.org/images/2005/03/scholstanduphbphuge.jpg |
| MattH | My color discernment is a little bad.... |
| Elais | can't see the girls at the bottom |
| Elais | lemme try a different browser |
| MattH | You have to scroll down... |
| Elais | it's not that |
| Elais | for some reason the picture is big for one second and then gets small |
| MattH | Ah, IE's shrink to fit feature. |

| MattH | Right-clicking on the picture brings up a box to expand it in IE. |
| Elais | okay, two kids on one side |
| Elais | one kid on the other side |
| Elais | the one kid looks like she has red hair |
| MattH | Ok...darn...I just can't see it. That is what everyone else says. |
| Elais | with the two kids on the other side |
| Elais | one looks to have red hair (a boy?), the other brown |
| Elais | i guess the hair color on the one kid looks too bright for it to be brown? |
| Elais | red is the only alternative |
| MattH | Yeah....Ron, Hermione and Ginny is most peoples guess. |
| Elais | that might have influenced things as well |
| MattH | Well, thanks....A lot of shippers are trying to figure what this means...if anything ;-) |
| Elais | LOL |
| MattH | A lot of the Harry/Hermione shippers are either depressed or somehow trying to convince themselves that the girl on the right is Lily, due to her somewhat more ethereal appearance. |
| Elais | wow |
| Elais | all that speculation just because of the cover |
| MattH | Reminds me of the B/A and B/S shipper wars. |
| MattH | Yep. |
| Elais | I am totally unfamiliar with that kind thing *g* |
| MattH | Riiiigggghhhhttttt.......... |
| Elais | *bap* |
| Elais | got to go matt |
| MattH | Ok...have fun in Texas. |
| Elais | see you next week |
| MattH | Yep. |
| Elais | and i'll let you know how it went |
