apartment gardening - part 1

So my place is very bland.

I only have basic furniture and not much else.

I do have a large balcony though so I thought about what could use it for?

Being right over the main road it is noisy, even despite being high up, so an outdoor seating area is a waste of time.

So I figured I might as well try and grow things, hopefully some vegies.

So far so good, there is life.

At the moment I'm trying lettuce, beetroot, carrots, capsicum and tomatoes. Plus some herbs and random flowers.

I think I'll need to get some bigger pots and more potting mix soon. If all goes well I'm going to get a worm farm.

I'll try and post updates with how it all goes.




The Sarah Connor Chronicles

T1 and T2 are both classic movies, the 3rd one was pretty crap but still watchable if only for the story.

Having watched the first 2 episodes of this series all I have to say is what a piece of shit.

Whats wrong with it?

Firstly a terminator needs to stand out from the general public, it's a robot from the future. Arnie stood out because of how big he is and how he talks. The liquid metal terminator stood out because of his expressions(he could act) and the cop uniform, basically he was scary.

A hot looking 16 year old girl does not stand out. She basically looks like a hot 16 year old girl so why would anyone think she is a terminator?

The bad terminators are just random semi-buff bad guys who cant act and with the odd bit of silver spray paint on them. They dont stand out at all and aren't scary.

There is no scary build up, it's just oh look there is a bad guy terminator I guess we should shoot at it and make our escape.

What the hell happened to Sarah Connor? She went from looking like a psychotic junkie to some trophy wife, her legs are flawless. It doesn't look like she has had a rough day in her life.



Put the terminator chick and Sarah Connor together and you've basically got the gilmore girls.

Even John Connor the tough little rebel in T2 now looks like some metro nancy boy.

Another thing that pissed me off is that these people are on the run yet they can keep up with the latest fashion trends and keep themselves well groomed?

If they made it with realistic characters and a semi decent believable storyline (not time travelling from 1999 to 2007 so they can have a teen main character) then people might watch it.

Looks like John Connor will probably populate the future of mankind with cyborbs after him and the hot terminator chick inevitably get it on.

Wonder how those humanoid robots are coming along anyway?
