My Idiot Brother
Lisa and I watched "My Idiot Brother" starring Paul Rudd. I rented it because Lisa was down and asked for a comedy to lighten her mood, but this didn't fit the bill. It was a nice movie, and there were a few laughs, but all in all this as dry as the Mojave. Grade: B
Shawn Spencer: Good morning detectives, collecting money for the Policeman's ball?
Carlton Lassiter: We don't have balls.
Shawn Spencer: I honestly have no response to that.
Mind Altering Murder by William Rabkin
I finished reading "Mind Altering Murder" a Psych tie-in novel by William Rabkin. This was easily the weakest of the bunch. It was poorly constructed and relied on wild happenstance to link the plot.
Blech. The only plus was that he captures the Gus' voice to a T. Grade: C (book #65 of the year)

Melissa and Joey
I'm watching "Melissa and Joey" on Netflix and they showed a building exterior as an establishing shot for a scene set in modeling agency - only thing is, I'd stake $ on the building being the Texas School Book Depository. If so - eww

Deep Down - a story by Lee Child
I finished reading "Deep Down" a Jack Reacher story by Lee Child. It was written exclusively for the Kindle, but I Calibre'd it and read it on my Nook. Good story, nothing jaw dropping. Grade: B

Stargate SG1: Trial by Fire by Sabine C Bauer
I've finished reading "Stargate SG1: Trial by Fire" by Sabine C. Bauer, a readable but forgettable tie-in novel from the TV series. Grade: C (book #64 of 2012)
Doctor Who Quotes
Amy Pond: You do have a plan, don't you?
The Doctor: No, I have a thing. It's like a plan, but with more greatness.
Greatest Doctor Who quote Ever, although I admit it loses a bit of pizazz in print:
Amy: So you were right. . . We didn't make a difference at all.
The Doctor: I wouldn't say that. The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and bad things. The good things don't always soften the bad things, but vice versa, the bad things don't necessarily spoil the good things or make them unimportant - and we definitely added to his pile of good things.
