HOLY SHIT. TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES IS THE BEST SHOW ON TELEVISION.

For those of you who follow the show (and haven't seen this episode), don't read any further.

THE CONCLUSION OF THE SEASON FINALE CHANGES EVERYTHING.

Just today during lunch, a bunch of my friends and I were complaining about Taub getting too much screen time. "They're taking turns," we said. "Kutner needs some next."

Well, Kutner got it today. His character committed suicide.

The Fox Web site set up a special memorial page for Kutner.

This is so depressing. Why the hell did he do it? Why the hell did Fox do it?

As part of my ongoing investigations into the mystery that is my current dream college, I came across several videos. Apparently, several college students at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) filmed these amusing spoofs on the popular American TV show The Office, creatively titled The Dorm.

Pilot — Part 1

Pilot — Part 2

Not bad for a tech school.

In other news, I have an announcement that may be of greater interest to my readers. BoA's new U.S. album is doing surprisingly well! It's gained some coveted positions on the U.S. Billboard, including the top 10 for multiple charts!

After finally catching up on the four or five episodes of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles that I missed¹, I snuck² a few peeks at the previews of the next episode "To the Lighthouse," which will be aired on Friday, March 27. Unfortunately, since I'll be attending a college open house in Rochester, New York, it is probable that I will not have access to a TV at that time. In all, I'm looking forward to the road trip… but I'm looking forward even more to Friday's explosive Terminator action.

A few YouTube videos are in order.

For those of you who don't know, the man playing with the Legos is a cyborg. I believe his "brain" and power supply are hosted externally.

And to point out to my nonviewers again, the young, petite brunette who says "You can't kill me" is a Terminator.

Lastly, this preview is a summary of the final six episodes of the season, which includes footage has not yet been aired. There seems to be a climactic Terminator showdown involving a few major characters. If you'd like to avoid spoilers, I suggest you avert your eyes.

On an unrelated note, I'd like to point out the recent updates to my compendium of budget Web hosting providers. One of the newest additions is a unique host that offers "pay as you go" pricing.

And there you are. I'll see you later.

1.The time slot change to Friday is rather inconvenient for me, as I tend to pass out right as I return home from school — a fact I mainly attribute to the emotional/spiritual exhaustion of having endured another week of forced social integration.
2. Firefox's spell checker doesn't seem to think "snuck" is a word — but Conan O'Brien does! He even looked it up (the "gaffe" occurs 0:54 into the clip).

BoA, 22-year-old Korean and overall Asian pop star extraordinaire, just released her debut U.S. album today, self-titled BoA, as was described extensively in my previous entry.

Whoa, a review already, Fa? On the day of its release? Sadly, yes. I'm not beneath downloading it illegally, especially when I harbor no respect for pop artists whatsoever. And you could just say I'm mildly curious.

Continue this way to learn all the itty, gritty details (and perhaps snag a free download along the way).
