Every week as I write these, I want to also write a post about what’s new with me and what’s going on in the House of Garrett (formerly the House of FNUR, FNUR, a saying that I still use on a daily basis). But then I think, I can’t write that post now because I have to write the 24 post. If the personal post appears above the 24 post, no one will see the 24 post. If the 24 post appears above the personal post, no one will see the personal post. If I combine the 2, that’s a really long post.
But today, I AM going to combine the two because I believe my life is more interesting than this week’s episode. Let’s begin!
This week in 24, Morris generally sucked at his job and at life. Chloe discovered that he did not call his sponsor and confronted him in the bathroom while he was totally doing Number 2! And he jumped up – and didn’t even wipe! He told her he called his OTHER sponsor, and lame Chloe (yes, I said it) believed him. Then he poured out his whiskey bottle to his trash can homey.
This week, I went to the bathroom every 5 minutes or so, but it was really just to blow my nose. I had a cold last week and it made moving very hard. The cold turned into a sinus infection, but a round of antibiotics and some rest got me back in shape. But I am still blowing my nose a lot (and at least I wipe).
We learned the delivery system for the nuclear bobms are some kind of US drone planes, and Gredenko has those.
I learned how to make buttons, and made one of myself with a picture of me as a pirate! YARRR!
Keifer says goodbye to Marilyn, and they give each other a super dumb look that says “Oh Jack, hold me like you did by the lake in Naboo!**”. He visits President Logan, who is super religious now and insists that he be let out of his deluxe presidential ranch exile to talk to some Russian ambassador to get to Gredenko. Then they took the next 40 minutes to get changed into suits.
We moved last weekend, and the new place is great! It take me 40 minutes to get ready in the new place, but 15 of those are because Erik kicks me out of the bathroom so he can poop.
Chad Lowe kept Larry FLEINhart tied up while Random Mysterious Dude smuggled in explosives – in his HIGHLIGHTERS. He spent most of the episode creating a bomb in his tape recorder, then Chad Lowe snuck it into where President Brother and Assad went to practice their speech. But they don’t make highlighter-tape recorder bombs like they used to, because it starts leaking just enough to give Assad & Co. a second’s notice before the bomb blows up. Potential Presidential Parts everywhere!
Ok, I can’t beat that. But since it’s about lame characters, I really don’t care.
**For the record, Erik doesn’t find that joke funny and thinks I am being disrespectful to Star Wars for telling it. I say that I am making a punchline out of a lame scene/piece of dialogue in what is otherwise a spectacular movie franchise which I enjoy very much. Commenters – you be the judge.
I was going to make a picture of Jack and Marilyn in Episode 3 saying that line, but I thought that might be pushing it. So instead I present this:
