The Digital Bits is reporting that Universal will release Battlestar Galactica: The Complete Series on DVD on July 28th. However, for those of us who have been buying these releases on a season-by-half-season basis, Season 4.5 will apparently street on April 21st, to coincide with the DVD release of the forthcoming prequel series, Caprica (presumably, the tele-movie “The Plan” will also be released this day).
(Also: there is this disturbing news. Apparently, Universal never got the memo that Lorne Greene is DEAD. Or they want Glen Larson fraking around in Ron Moore’s BSG universe which, uh, fuck no.)
I shave my head. I usually do this every night, because most mornings I hit the snooze button a few times, then realize how late I’m running, and dash into the bathroom, trying not to trip over any sleeping cats as I do. Last weekend, I decided to forgo buying expensive cartridges for my razor, and went with a bag of the cheapo ones.
On the face of it, this might seem extremely stupid: however, the first time I shaved my head, back in 2003, I had considerable luck with disposable razors. I was, however, not able to repeat my earlier luck with said disposables, and several cuts on my head promptly began spilling large quantities of blood down my face. While the wounds were nothing that some water, a towel, and some pieces of tissue paper couldn’t take care of, it became obvious to me that continuing to shave my head every evening was going to make it hard for these wounds to heal themselves.
So, for most of a week, I stopped shaving. Hair began to grow: bristle and rough at first, oddly furry by today. After I got home from lunch with my parents, I examined my head in the mirror and rubbed my hand over my wounds. Judging from sight and tough, I decided that shaving my head was again an option, and loaded a new cartridge, rubbed shaving gel into my hair, and went to work.
And guess what?
No blood. The wounds had healed. My head is once again as smooth as a baby’s freshly-cleaned ass. And since I was feeling productive, I went ahead and shaved a few stray bristles of hair from my upper cheeks, and the patch of hair under my lip … and then I shaved the mustache part of my beard.
I’m so excited, and I just can’t hide it! Fanboys’ limited release has been expanded, and it came to Washington, DC yesterday. I’ve got work Monday night, and a post-work happy hour Wednesday night, so I’m planning on making my way to theaters Tuesday. Who’s in?
Why poorly written? Look, I’m no journalist, but shouldn’t there be some background for those who might’ve forgotten exactly who “Condit” is and why he’s relevant? This is the only line he’s given: “Police questioned Condit several times in connection with the murder, but never named him a suspect.” Erm, don’t you think some background on who he is and why he’s important might help for those who don’t remember this case?
And, for those curious: although I’d certainly forgot Condit’s name, I remember well the role he played in the investigation.
You’d think they could flesh that out a bit. Meanwhile, here’s his Wikipedia page.
EDIT: CNN has revised the article, detailing the relationship between Condit and Levy, and Condit’s role in the investigation.
