I’m always looking for new competition shows to stream, but I may have found one I can’t handle..
“Blown Away” is on Netflix, and the contestants compete at…glass blowing. Now, I get nervous just watching the Great British Baking Show, when someone has to make an elaborate CAKE.
But elaborate sculptures made of fragile glass formed in 1500° ovens? I don’t need that kind of stress in my entertainment.
Anyone who knows me knows that I’m a huge fan of Bob Dylan. Even his arguably misguided “Christian preacher” phase.
BUT I think we Dylan fans forget that the man is 81 FREAKING YEARS OLD.
He gave an interview recently to the Wall Street Journal in which he said that music technology is “a magic show” that “conjures up spirits,” and then went completely off the rails when he described people, as “pill, poppers, cube heads, and daytrippers.” I think it’s time to take the remote away from grandpa.
OK, so I had the TV on in the background, and I misheard the weather guy… I thought he said the Twin Cities was gonna be hit by a ‘lizard ‘ Which I think I would actually prefer, instead of 6 inches of snow blown around by 40 mph wind in 30 below windchill.
At least, if low-budget horror movies are correct, you can try to distract a giant reptile that’s attacking your city.
Yeah, I think I would definitely take a lizard over a blizzard. I also think I’ve been in my apartment too long and I’m going stir-crazy.
