Well the Olympics are over so television will start getting back to normal I hope. I do realize that NBC has moved some stuff around and so I may have to change a few things that I watch.

I think my biggest disappointment though is with FOX and American Idol. I love watching House and Bones, but now that American Idol is getting such huge ratings it is on all the time. Pretty soon I expect FOX to become the 24 hours American Idol network the way things are going. I guess since it is second in ratings behind only the Super Bowl, I can only expect to see the shows I like on when Idol has finished it's season.

The Naval Station had started something I think is great. They will be ticketing people who drive on base while talking on cell phones. I am glad to see that someone is doing something about cell phones and driving and would like to see the City and State follow suit.

Today we are supposed to get a huge winter storm with lots of rain and flash flood warnings. We can really use the rain, but I don't know if we need it all at once like this storm is supposed to do. I am glad I do not live in an area that floods, as I live on a hill and the ground is stable. I just hope the rain holds off until I get home from work, as people here just cannot drive in the rain. It is lunchtime now and when I went out to look the clouds are rolling in. I hope it can hold off for a few more hours. I know that driving on the freeways will be a nightmare if it starts drizzling before I get home.

Also the dogs will be upset as they do not like the rain and will have to be penned up in the family room. They don't like the rain, and especially hate lightning and thunder if we get some of that. Anyway time to get ready to get back to work. Lunchtime is over and I must get back to my classroom.
