I Love Television: The State of the Robotic Unionnew
My fellow Americans: We have a serious and potentially life-threatening problem facing our nation this week. Shockingly, the president of the United States has scheduled his State of the Union address to directly conflict with not one, but TWO of my fave new shows!

'Cloverfield' Exploits National Tragedynew
The game in Cloverfield is to exploit media-memory of 9/11 and encourage moviegoers who were probably in grade school, and not quite senescent at the time, to pretend to relive that terror -- while feeling safely nostalgic.
