I have a 7" Fire tablet and I bought the protective housing

the case protects it. I've been watching the Andromeda TV series on
the little 7" tablet when I visit the toilet to drop a load of
Readymix. I used to take a magazine or newspaper(remember them) with
me to the bathroom when I needed to rid myself of toxic solid waste.
Ain't technology amazing? ^_^

I was watching Andromeda. Netflix had the first season but not
the rest.
I got up to Season 2, Episode 8 on Amazon and it wouldn't play.
A popup
said I needed a ComicCon subscription, $4.99 a month after a 7
day free
trial. I think Season 3 is still available.

A guy was bitching about another scifi show he had been
watching that
suddenly required a subscription. Apparently ComicCon bought
the rights
to some of the old shows and are trying to capitalize.

What ****es me is I'm guessing the buck stops at Lionsgate; I
doubt Lexi
Doig and the others are getting big royalty checks.

My friend The Penguin has a dog named Lexi who's a psychotic
beagle. She's also a cutie. From watching all of the SciFi shows, I
find it a bit amusing that most of the humans and aliens in outer
space are Canadians. ^_^

I thought most actors in American shows were Canadians because
Americans are too thick to act.

Not exactly. It's cheaper to produce TV shows in Vancouver which is
up the coast from Californiastan. I imagine it's still close enough
for American actors to travel without too much trouble to make it to
acting jobs. ^_^

You call everything "istan" on the end, but claim not to be racist?
--

You mean like Englandistan? WTF does "istan" have to do with racism?
Can you define the word "racist" or do you just start barking it when
you encounter things you don't grok? You seem to be afflicted with
HISSY,"Humor Irony Sarcasm impairment SYndrome". Those afflicted often
have HISSY fits when they encounter humor they don't understand. o_O

[8~{} Uncle Humorous Monster

You suffix placenames with istan because you hate the influx of Muslims.

'Muslim' is not a race...

Why do people say that ****? They all look the same so clearly they're
a race. Maybe the race name is different, but most Muslims are the same
race.


So Indonesians look like Arabs? Chechens look like Uyghurs? Persians
look like Pakistanis? Is Christian a race?
