I completely disagree (well at least about Enterprise being horrid).
In fact, one can draw strong parallels between the early seasons of Enterprise and TNG.
IMHO, the first two seasons of TNG were rough to say the least. The characters were completely overacted and campy, not unlike a former series bearing a similar name. In fact most TOS fans despised TNG. But then sometime in the 3rd season things turned around culminating with the BOBW Part I. After that episode (and BOBW Part II), the series skyrocketed. The characters became more normalized and the writing improved dramatically.
I see the same thing with Enterprise. I believe the last half season or so has been as strong, if not stronger than the end of the 3rd season of TNG. The Xindi storyline has been excellent. The idea that the Captain's primary job is to stop a device from destroying his home world at any means has proven to be very compelling - especially when certain lines have got to be crossed in order to accomplish the ultimate goal.
I really wish more people watched the series. I really believe the show has a lot of promise.

The stickers constitute defacement, in my book. They diminish the value of the CD to the retailer - the message is repugnant, they're large, ugly, and cover the artwork, making customers less likely to purchase a CD (the whole point of their little vendetta).
Wow; god forbid anyone might do anything to reduce the likelyhood of someone buying a crappy CD.
The stickers go outside the shrink wrap. They bring pertinant information to the attention of consumers. There's no reduction in actual value of the product. The only thing being interfered with is an (exploitative) sales process.

It's not the new year yet, but it seems like a good time to give thanks.
Long story short, I've had a good year. Great job, short commute, and dating again. I've become focused, but with great flexibility. I'm not sweating the big stuff, or the small stuff. The good stuff is in the middle.
May your holidays be commercial-free,

Journal Journal: Can the blind see? 30
Xerithane left me a very interesting comment a few weeks ago. Here's a blurb:
For instance, I suffer from a moderately rare eye condition. I will go blind for 3+ hours if I'm exposed to bright light for more than a few minutes. It's like a goths wet dream. When it first happened I was probably 12 or so, and the whole time I sepnt trying to think what blind people saw suddenly made sense.
Journal Journal: Slashdot Oldtimers? Are there more archives? 21
Just for fun, I decided to peruse the really really old Slashdot stuff to see how everything started. Maybe I'd find quiet thoughtful debate about the HTML CENTER tag (1995?) ? Or maybe some lively debate regarding the plot of "Good Will Hunting (1997)" ?
Journal Journal: The Evolution of Compassion 14
My Theory of Evolution - Scenario #1: "Now"
By chance, one trait is introduced into the genome of a specific individual living thing. If the trait is immediately advantageous over those of the same species who do not possess the trait, then the trait will very likely be passed along to future generations. If the trait is immediately undesirable, then the individual will be rejected by its peers and will be unable to pass along the new trait. This is called evolution.
Journal Journal: A serious topic: Why men masturbate. 54
Ok, so I came across this article on Yahoo News, and the obvious conclusion hit me right in the eye. Evolutionarily speaking, men who masturbate have an advantage over men who do not masturbate. The article does not suggest my conclusion, but it seems obvious from the facts given. Here are some facts/quotes given in the article:
