U2 and 24

Someone sent me this article today. What U2 Is Looking For It's about the philosophical underpinnings of U2 and their journey from pessimistic Christianity to existential despair to relational redemption. Pretty interesting stuff. It just goes to show that there's a lot more depth in the world of pop music than it normally gets credit for. (Britney Spears kind of ruins it for everyone else.)

I've been so excited to read that The Anti-Drama Queen and Drama-Rama Sara are both into 24 now! I had always thought they would enjoy it, because I do, and they are at least as smart as I am. In my opinion, this is one of the best shows on TV, ever. Eric and I haven't missed a week since the beginning of season 3. I can't wait for my girls to live closer to me so we can have 24 parties and obsess together! Apparently they have both developed quite a penchant for Jack Bauer and his whispery growl. I'm more of a Tony admirer myself, but I'm sure we can overcome our differences.

  1. Glad to hear I'm at least as smart as you! :)

    I will be so excited to having 24 parties with you!! And you can have Tony. That leaves less competition for Jack. Why didn't you tell us about this sooner??

    I'm going to read the U2 thing right now.

  2. I ADORE Tony. Oh, he's so brooding. And I'm really happy Michelle came back, I always really liked that relationship.

    Oh man, it is going to be SO GREAT being near each other again!
