"Read less, more TV."

So become somewhat obsessed with this House MD show.. Haven't been aired in Norway yet, but I saw a promo somewhere.. and now I've managed to get through both seasons in a frightenly short period of time.. I have no life....
Who would have guessed that the Prince Regent would end up being most known as a hunky tv doc.












Very clever show, funny, good actors, brilliant main character and great dialouge.

"Nobel invented dynamite. I won't accept his blood money."
"It's a basic truth of the human condition that everybody lies. The only variable is about what."
"I've found that when you want to know the truth about someone that someone is probably the last person you should ask."
"Humanity is overrated."
"The eyes can mislead, the smile can lie, but the shoes always tell the truth."
"Like I always say, there's no "I" in team. There's a "me" though, if you jumble it up."
"I teach you to lie, cheat, and steal, and as soon as my back's turned you wait in line?"
"Raw food.. If only her ancestors had mastered the secret of fire."

Went to see Maria Solheim play at John Dee on saturday.
http://www.myspace.com/mariasolheim
Always really enjoyed her records, but I have never seen her preform live. Sounded very good - a bit more lively than it is on the records. The newest record, Will there be spring, seems to be a bit more.. up beat.. than her previous ones. Going to add it to my collection tomorrow.
Played for about an hour an a half.
Came back for an encore in which she even preformed a guitar solo (only her second time to do it live).

My memory is getting worse and worse, but here are some of the songs she played
Ocean needs water
Richard
Lady of my life
Too many days
The snow has killed
Wildest day
Different seasons
Juice
Kissing me
A more lively version of Take my heart
Encore
Where do people go
You – Every morning

Rumour has it that she will also release a book this fall containining some of her drawings, which will be very cool. Here drawings are so cute http://www.kjentfolk.no/musikere/solheim/frameset.php?load=http%3A//www.kjentfolk.no/scripts/bildearkiv.php?kat_id=1044&css=http%3A//www.kjentfolk.no/musikere/solheim/css/msie.css

Oh.. and you hear that Steve Irwin, the Crocodile hunter, is dead. For real this time. Heard so many rumours throughout the years, but this time, sadly, it's true. And what a freaksih death it was. Stingray barb through the heart. Found his shows quite entertaining and educational to watch, but I've never been a fan of the way he has to handle all the animals. I guess it's educational in that you get to see it up close.. But it's got to be very stressful for the animals - I mean, having a rather large person chasing after you and picking you up by the tail or whatever.. But still, I was an admirer of his work. Conservation biology and education is something I hope to move into eventually..
