3pm to 4pm on "24", and, Dr. Bonnie to the kitchen sink, STAT!

Time for some catching up before I head off to get a decent night's sleep (I hope)...

1) "24"---As mentioned in the last post, it was a bad hour for Edgar (I still have a hard time watching people lose their mom, even on TV shows....), but he makes the right decision (and the one mom would have him make) by working to save the world, or at least the large percentage about to get fried.

In the meantime, the actress who plays Dina Araz, Shohreh Aghdashloo, proves she can be as stone cold as any human, with that final line that, if her son cannot be saved, she would be more than happy to watch the nuclear plants meltdown. Her facial expression topped off the surprisingly cold, quiet, yet powerful ending.

Of course, cool Jack got in his suave line...."did you get that?"

Well, the Araz watch still stands, no one dead yet (at least from the list of two weeks ago, who knew we'd meet Dina's brother and say goodbye to him in, what, 25 minutes?) but I suspect one or more go in the 4pm hour.

Oh, and, attention all actors and actresses: If you see an opening for "bit part" in any future "24", be advised, your character will die. Just didn't want you to get your hopes up....

...and where's Chloe????

NOW..............MEDICAL CENTER..............(remember that ol' show??)

Bonnie stops by Patient First Tuesday morning after taking the kids to school. The line to see the doc is 14 deep. Too long to wait, she decides, comes home, boils some water, gets those tweezers sterilized, and voila!!! Goodbye 8 stitches.

Next week, she'll be opening her tonsilectomy shop and hopes to be performing organ transplants by late 2007.

I knew I married an incredible woman with an independent spirit, but, well, she just keeps topping herself. She's a looney nut! And I love her just like that. :)
