I can't tell you a series that I watch religiously. I used to be a <i>Law & Order</i> junkie, but I can't tell you the last time I saw a new show.<br /><br />Back in the TV-less days, I used to grab news clips off the net and go to Tressider to watch a game or two. The Super Bowl that year was in the CoHo for me.<br /><br />A long way home, of course, for this breaking news... CoHo? <i>C'est fini,</i> per the <i>Daily</i>. They moved the coffee houses and other stuff into Old Union, apparently, while Tressider becomes the monolithic administrative space that it, well, always was designed to be.<br /><br />Still, it was one of the pre-fab cute things about Stanford, with its nicknames. CoHo, CoPo, ProFro, FroSoCo, etc. But life changes. Fail and harewell, then.tomnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3134668.post-26322184384141015822007-09-24T16:40:07.000-07:002007-09-24T16:40:07.000-07:00regarding the facts of life singalong: yes, it has...regarding the <i>facts of life</i> singalong: yes, it has happened my office! it wasn't in a staff meeting, but it did involve people singing over cube walls, and also trying to remember all the words to the theme song for <i>growing pains</i>.<br /><br />on a slightly related note, and in the spirit of the upcoming season, i offer <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndXWPxhfYYw" rel="nofollow">this</a>.valyanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3134668.post-33024711122168773952007-09-25T14:28:11.000-07:002007-09-25T14:28:11.000-07:00S: i can't even talk about the way alias ended...S: i can't even talk about the way <i>alias</i> ended. it - no, too painful.<br /><br />T: i mock the <i>battlestar</i> purists, but that's how i feel about the my beloved stanford coffeehouse - that thing was coho in name only by the time we left (actually, by the time i got back from england in '99 - it figures that they didn't have the balls to rehab it on my watch). to me, <i>coho</i> means those big old lumpy railroad tie tables, the awkward tchotchke-covered beams above the counter, no starbucks coffee (o prescient gaieties!), and NO DAMN TV. i have no tears for the 2007 version. <br /><br />V: we don't even <i>have</i> a halloween party! unjust!laurennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3134668.post-61759648926404592242007-09-26T12:14:41.000-07:002007-09-26T12:14:41.000-07:00On real live tv: Weeds, Big Love, Entourage, and S...On real live tv: Weeds, Big Love, Entourage, and SADLY The Hills (ironically, but that's no excuse, but such good mocking fun after a long day of work). Hum, I'm not a network person, huh?<br />Of course we L-O-V-E our BBC, but we have to get that netflix style. Prime Suspect (best! so sad it's over), Foyles War (mmmmmm.... great....), and sometimes a Midsommer Murders to relax.<br />My british taste is clearly much more pithy then my american taste.Megnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3134668.post-91765510018846055222007-09-27T14:11:02.000-07:002007-09-27T14:11:02.000-07:00this week, I'm watching Ken Burn's documen...this week, I'm watching Ken Burn's documentary The War on PBS. <br /><br />I watch Prison Break, but late [thank goodness for iTunes] and Lost [c'mon, January!]<br /><br />i like The Daily Show and The Colbert Report but i can't stay up to watch 'em so i catch up via Comedy Central dot com. i'm also an occasional view of Big Love.sharonnoreply@blogger.com
