The Peacock is green

Huzzah, this week NBC is showing us they care about the environment with a special week of commercials highlight green things, like how SC Johnson uses methane from a nearby landfill to power the plant that makes Glade air freshener.

To further this effort, tonight's guest on Conan is Seth Green.

But, tonight's episode of Law & Order features the final episode of Jesse L. Martin's character--Detective Ed Green. He gets charged with murder! What is Dick Wolf thinking? Green is good. Green shouldn't leave the show in disgrace. It was however great that they mentioned Lenny.

Argh, and Anthony Anderson's character Detective Bernard just suggested that he and Detective Lupo car pool as they drive to New Jersey because it saves gas. But, you do have to appreciate the economy of using him as the Internal Affairs cop investigating Green who yearns to be in Homicide to set up Anderson's return to the Law & Order universe as a regular next week. At least his name isn't Verde, Gruen, or Zeleny.

Orchid's a-bloomin'

Three or four years after I got it after watching Adaptation and reading The Orchid Thief, my orchid's finally blooming again. I have no idea what if anything I did to get this to happen. I simply water the thing once every week or two.



But the stem with the blooms on it is so much shorter than the one that was on it when I got it? Anyone out there understand this?
