I hate football because it delayed the return of the X-Files.

Which is awesome! God I missed that show.

How was it? I actually ended up missing it getting some chores done.

I thought it was a pretty good re-start. Seeing the old characters and their actors was fun and the story moved along pretty quick.

And it doesn't look like the Bills will be winning any Superbowls for a while (old X-Files fans know why!).

The first semifinal shown here was pretty good, quite enjoyed it last night. Not the best performance by new England and the final score did not really show how much Denver dominated. But at least the final minutes had been quite exciting.

In case somebody missed it, like most of the world...

RIP Jimmy Bain

He was bassist for Rainbow and Dio, and had been involved in some of the best Heavy Metal Albums ever.

Wait a damn minute...X-Files is back?!

Dude, what channel, what channel?:cheers:

Fox, of course. IIRC this was the show that put Fox in the big leagues with the Big 3.

Learned something surprising about Bain: he played bass on the Scorpions' Love At First Sting album and turned down (or was denied by management) a full membership in the band.

When I was growing up I always assumed I was hearing Francis Buccholz playing bass on that record!

85 people died in Taiwan this month because temperatures dropped to -1°C ... mostly in their own houses. :huh:

Hard to imagine here.

-1 C is a typical February morning where I live--it wouldn't be any fun, especially in your house, but I don't see how it kills you unless you are over 75.

That may be the demographic that is dying. The elderly often don't have great ability to regulate their temperature, and thermal extremes are extremely stressful. Hours at -1 C when you have no place or means to get warm is a recipe for hypothermia, even for young healthy people. How many in Taiwan have proper winter clothing?

Those are some good points.

But...damn...people in Southeast Asia make the coats we use in North America:blink:
