Seriously. Who the fuck does the president think he is, pushing back CSI for a dumb "press conference"? Because, you know, he answers questions off the cuff all the time. Yep. Constantly.
Interesting insider random bit o' knowledge: When Georgie deviates from his scripted speech, his press/speechwriter people call it "going off the ranch." My public speaking teacher has a friend who works for the press corps, and her job- this is incredible, it's her main reason for working there- is to yell "YOU'RE OFF THE RANCH!" at him when he practices his speeches and starts to ramble.
Obviously she's doing a good job. He didn't go off the ranch last night, although no one laughed at his jokes.
...Eh. The point is, I wound up staying up to watch CSI even though my parents were going to tape it. It was good that I did, because the tape stopped halfway through the episode.
You know, when CSI does an episode that deals with a sexual sub-culture (BDSM, baby play, whatever) everyone makes a huge deal out of it; the episode itself is usually not that bad or shocking when it actually airs. Then there's the occasional episode that has doesn't particularly deal with a deviant sub-culture, and it's extremely squickish. Committed= creepy. Good, but creepy. It kind of scares me that there are people like that in the world.
And of course, Grissom just stood there like a dope. *eyeroll* At this point I don't expect anything else, but... gah. Hello. Sara's got a very sharp object to her throat, so let's just stand here with the good old "mildly concerned" look on our faces, right?
Overall, I really liked it. I can't wait to see the icons people are going to come up with for this one.
Unfortunately, staying up that extra hour means that I'm really, really tired. So tired I have a headache. I hate when that happens. I usually manage to get enough sleep to keep the headaches off, but sometimes I push it too far, and it all goes to hell. Maybe I can grab some sleep after chemistry class.
Gah. Chemistry. DOOOOOOOOM.
