Quick notes for the record

I'm leaving for baseball soon and that anticipation has ruled my thoughts today. The Crew REALLY need to get something going and they needed to do so three weeks ago. The biggest advantage they have at the moment is that, as rough and uneven as their play has been of late, they're only 2 and 1/2 games off of first place at the moment.

Have seen a number of pictures from the filming of the fifth/thirty-first/first series of Doctor Who. Matt Smith's costume for the Doctor is interesting, stylish in a way that seems a bit off, fitting tradition and yet not being a copy of anything previous. Hair's not quite as shaggy as it was when he was announced. Companion Karen Gillian is very pretty. All that plus Steven Moffat in charge makes me excited for what's to come.

Haven't watched 'Torchwood: Children of Earth' yet. Heck, I keep forgetting that I have 'Doctor Who: Planet of the Dead' to watch...

Am bracing for the flood of information to pour from the San Diego Comic-Con. Today's the first big day of the Con so it should be all over soon. So far, I've not seen anything too exciting, more promises of information rather than the information.
