  In the chains of practical constraints

  Wow, my last blog is from 2 months ago! I just wanted to let everybody know that I'm not gone, I just have a very hectic life at the moment, which basically leaves me with around 0 hours of free time per day. I'll try to be around more in the future than I have been lately, but I'm not sure I'll make it

  Oh, and two pink fluffy points go to the first one who names the source of the blog title

  Go East!

  Ok, I'm trying to write a blog since Monday, but I didn't get too far... So I'll try to keep it short, so that I'll finish it

  On Tuesday the week before we had our topping out ceremony, which was a great party. But on Wednesday a had a bad hangover, even though I thought that I hadn't drunk that much... I still had the hangover on Thursday and on Friday and on Saturday, ... So it seems it was no hangover after all, but some kind of virus

  On this Wednesday I had a few important meetings which didn't went as good as I wanted with me not be to concentrate or articulate a whole sentence SO before I knew it, I was set for a business trip to Russia the whole next week. But instead of seeing an airport, a hotel and a company, I won't even see that much, because our meeting will take place in the hotel, great... Oh and I was chosen to present some products I have never heard about, so this will be one wasted week... It also meant that I had to prepare the trip and the presentations for this meeting over the last couple of days (of course in addition to normal work... I have to learn to say 'no' to my bosses once in a while ) which is the reason I haven't written a blog in that time.

  I also met with my electrician to perform all the planning for the house, and after we were nearly done, he mentioned that it seems that I forgot two important things in my plans - Computer network and TV! Yes, I know, as a member of tv.com, these should be the first things to think about, not the ones I completely forget

  Nevertheless, I managed to finally read noahcrash's Serial part 4! Great, wicked, freaky stuff!

  Oh, and I somehow managed to get to a new level for the first time in a long while So I should re-start submitting to finally get to my favourite level, #22...

  Oh, and I watched some TV, as always. Here a few tidbits:

  Moonlight (Pilot):

  

  Worst opening exposition ever! It was obviously tagged on after the episode was already finished and it was so sloppy, it even managed to ruin scenes half an hour later. The rest of the episode was some standard nothing out of the ordinary vampire PI stuff. Oh, and hello writers, if you do a murder mystery, please include more then 3 guest stars, it keeps the who done it rather easy to guess...

  Still: 4/10

  Life:

  

  A police officer who was incarcerated for 10 years for a murder he didn't commit, gets a big settlement, including him being promoted to Detective. He is just a bit off, what makes this kind of a different procedural, a bit like Raines was last year. Add to that an ongoing storyline about him trying to figure out what really happened 10 years ago, some great actors (Damian Lewis, Adam Arkin, Robin Weigert) and you have quite an interesting series.

  7.5/10, will keep watching, witch means another procedural has to go... buy-buy Numb3rs.
  

  The second episodes of Reaper and Chuck both did not live up to their pilots, with Reaper still being better than the similar Chuck.

  I liked the second episode of Journeyman, even though the connections of his time travels to the desired end effect is very far fetched...

  Stargate Atlantis started its 4th season, without anything spectacular. I don't see how Samantha Carter will fit into this, SGA already has 2 geniuses with Rodney and Zelenka...

  What if:

  Life: A friend/colleague of yours was in prison for a long time for murder (and you were convinced he did it). Now he is released and his name cleared. How do you react towards him?

  This happened today in the past: 1985: The Achille Lauro was hijacked by terrorists and 1000 people held hostage.
