Yes, We've Got a Video
 by Fëanor

I finally watched my tape of last week's "Battlestar Galactica" last night. Damn, that's a fantastic show. I hope people are watching it so Sci Fi will keep airing it. This episode made me cry two non-consecutive times (just like Grover Cleveland). And in both cases it involved Adama, the gruff, emotionless Commander who in the last two episodes has suddenly found some things to get passionate about. We also learned, thanks to Starbuck, that the Cylon ships are organic, and full of meaty tubes and fluids and organs, which, besides being very interesting, is also totally gross.

Last night I also defeated the Lord of the Nazgul once and for all (with a little help from Eowyn--but only a very little), kicked some Mumakil ass, and totally wiped out a squad of trolls and orcs with the help of Aragorn and his jaw-droppingly powerful "Raise the Dead" maneuver. However, I still haven't beat Third Age, due mainly to the fact that the area I'm in (the Pelennor Fields) is really horribly and confusingly designed. As usual, you get a small auto-map in the top corner of the screen, but every few steps you take, the screen fades out and fades back in, you find yourself in a completely new area, and the map changes completely, making it pretty much utterly useless.

Needless to say, I'm lost. Hopefully I'll make my way out soon, because I need to finish Knights of the Old Republic so I can buy and start playing Knights of the Old Republic 2, which comes out tomorrow. And I still haven't even installed Age of Mythology. And then there's all those other GameCube games I never finished. And, for that matter, there're those Netflix DVDs I haven't watched yet, and three more Best Picture Oscar nominees still to see...

But I did catch up on my "BG," anyway.
