Lost, Law and Order, and a New CSI ...

Well it looks like Wednesday night will be the reason for multiple VCR's. J.J. Abrams new show "Lost" premiered last night and it was awesome. The pacing, the feeling of terror and confusion and the unknown. I think this series will be one that I will try and catch each week.

Law an Order has a new face Dennis Farina has replaced the retired Jerry Orbach as the new older detective with some moxie. Farina brings a humor and edge to the series as a detective who could easily pass for a mobster. From his martinis to his huge money clip, (with the big bills on the outside, like Pacino says to Johnny Depp in Donnie Brasco [And as an aside, Mike Newell the director of Donnie Brasco is now working on Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. I can just picture Pacino as Mad Eye Moody]), to his ride, and his tough guy attitude, I may actually enjoy having Brisco gone.

If you'd like to see Farina in a lesser known work but very funny rent Dave Barry's Big Trouble, you will laugh.

I didn't get to see CSI New York or Rescue Me last night but taped them. Not sure if I am going to get into another CSI since CSI Miami is the one I really like but they killed off Speed and that bugs me. I liked that character.

Review: Lumibricks Izakaya Building ...

The folks from Lumibricks sent me their latest building set, the Izakaya for free to build and review. Opinions are 100% my own. I've built a few sets from Lumibricks (formerly FunWhole) in the past and they are really fun and interesting. The photo above is of the Izakaya and also The Apartment. they are both part of a Cyberpunk theme called Neoncity. At this time there are also two additional buildings that you can build and add to this whole theme, the Game Stack and the Floating Train Station. The great things about these sets is that they light up. As you build you are also adding lights and wires and ways to illuminate the amazing build. Once you're done building you fire up some power and the lights blaze up. With Neoncity sets you get some incredible Nenon effects light signs and even neon tube lights. That is one of the coolest things about these sets is how the lights are incorporated into the build. Some very innovative bricks were made in order to thread the wiring...

Christmas Tree Is Up ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02510 Yesterday we put up the trees and today we decided to decorate the tree after dinner. Our tree is now mostly our family photo ornaments. We have a bunch of ornaments but with over 20 years of family photo ornaments it look like the predominant ornament type that we'll see. We did get a 2025 Hallmark one as well and I have to select this year's photo. 

2025 Family Ornament ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02515 We put our tree up the other day and I had already bought the 2025 Hallmark Keepsake ornament for our yearly family photo ornament. I love these ornaments on the tree. We have them from 2005 to now.
