quick fire telly recommendations

Hello people,

I have not been a regular poster on this blog for a long time due to the fact that i forgot all about it and only recently had an idea to serialise the translation of the whole Qu'ran into english with 10 verses a day.

For anyone interested in reading this - feel free to visit:

Unfortunately i have not posted on there for the best part of a week but intend to pick it up again soon.

Since I last posted (with the exception of the retraction to the 'stupidity' post) - i have come across a lot of good television programs which i would like to share with you all.

so very quickly

i) smallville - for all you superman fans out there - i suggest you download this fantastic show from the first episode of the first series and work your way through. It is truly awesome telly and worth making the effort to watch in chronological order.

ii) Killpoint - for all you fans of dramas or films involving hostage situations - this is a stupendous 8 part drama which will have you glued firmly to your seat for a weekend except while you are dumping or showering.. and some people - even then!

iii) Tru Calling - this is a brilliant sci fi show - unfortunately they only made 26 eps and it was canned in the midst of the second series... still 26 maginificent shows for those with time to burn!

You are all very welcome.

Peace

change of heart

Hello people,

a long time ago i posted a youtube video of miss south carolina making a fool of herself at a beauty pageant and since then i recently came across a video in which she redeems herself.

In the interests of justice, i feel it right to revoke my harsh comments (which in my defence were only made for a few cheap laughs) - and also share the video of her doing herself proud.
