Sturgeon’s Law

Ninety per­cent of every­thing is crap.


Derived from a quote by sci­ence fic­tion author Theodore Stur­geon, who once said, “Sure, 90% of sci­ence fic­tion is crud. That’s because 90% of every­thing is crud.” Oddly, when Sturgeon’s Law is cited, the final word is almost invari­ably changed to ‘crap’.

New Year’s Resolution

I’ve started work on what my New Year’s Res­o­lu­tion for 2005 is going to be. My first instinct is to pick some­thing doable, but that got me in about 15 pounds of trou­ble a cou­ple years back when I vowed to eat more and exer­cise less. So I think maybe I’ll shoot for some­thing hard to do, like watch more tele­vi­sion. How can that be hard you ask? Easy, I will not watch any real­ity shows (as much as I am intrigued by the Gilligan’s Island one.) I’m not inter­ested in and CSI show. Ditto it’s imi­ta­tors. No Law & Orders. The only sport I’m remotely inter­ested in is base­ball, so there won’t be any of that until April. I’d watch MTV if there was any M in it. VH1 is as bad, as it has become the net­work of “The 100 Most Insipid Music Related Count­down Shows.” About the only thing left is MXC on Spike and it isn’t on but a few times a week. But con­sid­er­ing I only watch West Wing on Wednes­day nights now…

  • MXC RULZ!! Jenne and I love that show. Well she loves it more than I do. I can watch two, maybe three episodes in a row and then I need a break. She can watch hours of MXC. She is an MXC junkie. Right you are Ken!

  • MXC is like a thick wedge of New York Cheese­cake, oh so good, but after one I’m done. Now on the other hand, West Wing is like a hot McDon­alds French Fry, I can eat as many as there are in front of me.
