That's Enough For Me

Considering that the characters of The Walking Dead television show have dealt with the Governor of Woodbury, the cannibals of Terminus, and the Wolves; Daryl driving up to the "ambush" set by Negan's men has convinced me to stop watching the show.

Based on the prologue to the next chapter, Daryl had plenty of time to stop away from them, or speed up and crash through them. Instead of Abraham giving advice, he makes a comment.

Granted everyone of the Saviors has a weapon, but if the trio decided to drive through the motorcycles, it would be tough for them to aim and avoid getting hit.

I've had issues with the writers not developing the characters before, but this is the bat that broke Glenn's head.

ALERT! NO SPOILERS HERE!

As we get closer to Star Wars VII: The Force Awakens, any website with an entertainment section has a spoiler about the movie. Yahoo is the worst when it comes to a spoiler alert, because it tends to reveal it right in the headline.

io9 will warn you, and then you have the option to read it for yourself.

When the poster was revealed, I was disappointed to see John Boyega aka Finn holding a lightsaber until I looked at the one for Star Wars IV and saw Luke doing the same.

Considering that Daisy Ridley looks like Keira Knightley it's caused speculation among the fans, I'm hoping JJ is only doing that as a red herring.

I stopped reading Star Wars 7 rumors because a few of them became true when I read a later spoiler by accident.

It's also a question of avoiding posts from my friends on Facebook.

In The Cucina With Seamas

Nothing like changing an ingredient when making hummus that works out great. Instead of cutting up the lemons and putting them with the other ingredients, I peeled the skin off and put them in the food processor. After a few seconds, it was a lot easier to pick the seeds out with a spoon.

Then I added in the chickpeas, spices, and canola oil for another spin of the blades and got a much creamier mix.

Last night was the Westchester Geeks Halloween Party, I brought the hummus dip and my world famous guacamole (using the new process of the lemon). People liked it so much, it's been demanded at all future WG events.
