Off Topic - History Lost

Tonight is a boring television night for me. So, I'm giving you a sneak peek at something which will be more fully covered in Sunday's "That Was the Week It Was" post. The condemned building which used to provide Roofus the Cat access to the roofs on North Street in Plainfield (until the back portion of the building and roof collapsed) had a partial collapse on Tuesday. Today they tore it down. I was there with my camera for the tail end of the demolition. I included some photos taken before today's demise.

Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains Blog Party Post 3/24 Episode



Thanks to Msrch Madness, we're on Wednesday this week. This post will be updated with the major events as they air here on the East Coast. Late tonight, my full review will be posted on TV Squad. But, until then, the real fun is in the comments area right here -- feel free to jump in with your thoughts on the show, everyone is welcome! Survivors ready?

The castaways are fighting for individual immunity within their tribes. Both tribes will go to Tribal Council. Candice won for the Heroes. Rob wins for the Villains. Rob won the showdown - Villains get hot dogs, soft drinks, and sit in on the Heroes Tribal Council.

Woohoo, Russell did it! He schemed, gave the idol to Parvati and TYSON got voted out!

Colby beat out James! James is going home.

Reminder - Survivor TONIGHT and ...

Just a quick reminder that Survivor will be on at 8 PM ET/PT tonight, not tomorrow. I'll have the usual blog party post going on for it. Plus, I missed Lost last night and have to catch up online. My apologies. I was out later than I thought I would be for dinner with a friend after work.

Oh ... Robert Culp died. It was just on the news. Rest in piece, Mr. Culp. I was a fan of I Spy way back when.
