TV Day

I rarely watch TV, but occasionally it's not bad spending a day in front of it, and surprisingly I can learn a lot. This weekend I was resting at home because of a soar throat, and here are some programs I watched:

- 2 NFL playoff games. Usually I only watch one football game a year, the Super Bowl. This gives me more incentive since I can pick a team and follow it through. I also learned that the largest comeback in NFL history is the 32-point made by Buffalo vs Houston in 1993.

- How a Japanese scientist made the first ever successful attempt to photograph a giant squid, on Discovery Channel. Apparently these monsters can grow up to 40 feet long, and live 3000ft down the sea, and none have ever being caught.

- Giant panda's trip to DC on Animal Planet.

- The 10 must see sceneries in Egypt, the tombs and the pyramids, on the Travel Channel.

- World Series of Poker. There is this guy Johny Chan who broke the record by winning 10 championships in 20 years. Also the first time I watched this with Gloria.

- The movie Truman Show. One of my favorite movies. Too bad I missed the first half. Um, should find a DVD.

- And finally the Walking the Bible DVD we bought. It is a bit lower than expectation so far, but the filming was great. I didn't expect the Middle East to be so pretty.

we should travel to mid east in 1995 or 1996, it was the most peaceful time there.
