“In other news, While America Burns it’s citizens watch video’s of cute kittens”

Well, I for one needed some kind of antidote regarding the news coming out about Obama’s presser, otherwise I was going to vomit. This helped quell the nausea quite a bit.

though not entirely acceptable for some children

WBill Jr. and I like watching them make stuff blow up.

And Cannons. He particularly likes the cannons.

(I skip the beheadings. :-) )

I let my kids watch it — even the decapitations. My 5yo daughter thought it was funny (I’m not sure if I should be disturbed by that or not). My 2yo son likes the explosions. I just didn’t want someone to plop their kid down in front of the TV for a semi-educational science show, only to be met with a surprise decapitation.

Some parents are more sensitive to that kind of thing than I am. Then again ... my daughter watched 24 with us some also, so violence doesn’t really bother me much.

Instructions in Swedish?

Yes but it has to be in the Swedish meatball dialect.

With them all being white or very light it must have been purposeful for some reason like as you said, advertising purposes.

But for a minute there, I though they left the Xerox machine running.

It’s an awesome show. Highly recommend it. The only *new* programming that I watch besides sports.

“IKEA is full of junk.’
Actually, we bought the best stainless steel thermos we’ve ever had at an IKEA.” Also bought nifty stainless shields for area around range in motor home to prevent icky grease splashes. :)
