current tv

sunday after midnight i found myself, very briefly, in a housing project that i'd heard of (on the more dismal portions of the news) but never knew the location of. i have no commentary on this odd fact just yet. instead, some fluff... i had finally learned where all my favorite channels were a few months ago, then i spent that month in new york, and re-learned the same ones up there on TWC. got home, confused, re-learned the originals, and now comcast decides they need to change the lineup. now i can't find my 3 am murphy brown episode... or maybe it's not on on sundays. who knows. i'm sure i can find something equally mindless... but looky! i get current tv! i've been following their progress in the press a bit halfheartedly, not at all expecting it would be carried here. i know it isn't geared toward my demographic, but i've been thinking of several people i know who i can imagine getting aired on it, based only on what i've read about it thus far. now that it's actually on, i'll see if those imaginings are accurate, and if so, i'll start badgering those people to get involved. i'm a tad worried that it might be way too fluffy. we'll see. hey, here now's a "sketch" (i'm sure they have a better term for what they do) about egg donation! dammit! ... oh. they're called pods. sure. and now here's one about X parties in iran. (yes, that kind of X.)
