I don't know about you but I love a good flash mob (Nancy did one for work). I also love The Big Bang Theory! Put the two together and we have geekdom heaven! Apparently Kaley Cuoco's sister choreographed this. I tried and tried but can't see Johnny Galeki dancing anywhere (Leonard). I have to say everyone but Amy Farrah Fowler has moves. Look at Bernadette go! My only quibble is it's too short.
Leiha Talks
My plan for Leiha Talks is multiple posts during the day to talk about things that are currently in the news (well mostly pop culture news) so we have somewhere to chat with the knowledge we wouldn't be attacked if our opinions differ.
Due to the fact I launched my blog a little sooner then I had planned (my posts were starting to get dated) I haven't been able to post as much as I had originally planned. Lin and I have been spending hours every day trying to work out the kinks, neither of us are coders or web designers so it's a lot of trial and error. Poor Lin, due to the time difference, she wakes up with a list of questions and can you do this? Why is this not working, etc?

About Last Night… Wednesday edition
Wednesday is an action packed night of TV, thank goodness The Voice is back to it's regular schedule, I'm already a couple of episodes behind on Modern Family and still haven't watched last week's Supernatural.
That being said, I still watched Supernatural. I didn't want to be 2 weeks behind! Oh Dean, how much do I love you? He carries the weight of the world on his shoulders. I wish I was there to offer a shoulder to cry on since those bros aren't great at comforting each other.

Sexiest Man Alive
Channing Tatum is People's Sexiest Man Alive this year. It was definitely a break out year for him, he co-wrote, co-produced and starred in one of my favorite movies of the year, Magic Mike. Who needs a good plot or good acting when there's beautiful men taking their clothes off? He was sensitive in The Vow and hilarious in 21 Jump Street.
Prior to this year, I knew his name but wouldn't have been able to pick him out of a line up. He blended with a lot of other actors for me. Is he the sexiest man alive? Based on this cover picture, no. This cover doesn't sell a sexy image. I'll show you my favorite pic of Channing after the jump.

Vampires and Werewolves Oh My!
While I'm not a Twilighter I am a huge fan of Vampires and Werewolves. In reality I have no interest in meeting either, it's fun to read about and romanticize them. Jeanine Frost's version of Vlad the Impaler is much different then the wikipedia version of him. I say, let's avoid anyone with the nickname The Impaler (insert dirty joke here).
But put them in a book or on a tv or movie screen and I'm there! Some of my faves would be Alcide is better in True Blood Eric is better in the Sookie Stackhouse books. Jean-Claude and Asher from the Anita Blake books. I really enjoy the Underworld movies, well the first couple of them anyway.
The Twilight Effect
Twilight: Breaking Dawn part 2 is coming out this week. I wasn't interested in reading the books, I've read some fantastic books featuring vampires, werewolves, etc. and while Twilight had a lot of buzz, among my fellow readers I was told it didn't compare to the books I already read (and I already admitted to being a book snob).
I did check out the movie when it came out on DVD because my sister loved it. I was unimpressed. Then about 6 months ago we did a Twilight Marathon at my sister's, and the movies weren't as bad as I thought they were going to be. I know, what a rave, LOL. Once the last movie comes out on DVD I'm sure I'll watch it at my sisters house. She won't give me a choice.
The Voice
It's the Top 12 and the power is now out of the judges hands, in some ways I really like that (Christina gets it wrong every year) but in some I don't (Dez Durant will get the teen girl vote for sure) but I definitely think it's better then the way the X Factor does things, where the judges never vote out their own team, even if they're the worst.
Here are my impressions on each singer as they were singing, I can tell you right now, I would make an awful judge. I critique based on who I've liked all along, not just on tonight's performance. I'm not impartial and make no apologies for it.

The Kardashians don't live here
One of my favorite gossip sites spends a ton of time talking about Kardashians, Real Housewives, Teen Moms and the like. It's getting to the point where I'm ready to unbookmark them because I want to go there for celebrity news and gossip and to me, these just aren't celebrities!
The Kardashian article du jour was about the fact that Kim had zits on her face! Is that really newsworthy? For the past year I've had to struggle with adult acne, there have been no news article about that (but now that I have my own blog, that could be changing, LOL).

About Last Night… Sunday edition
Two of my must see shows last year are on Sunday nights this year and I couldn't have been more thrilled, well that was until the television season actually started.
Is it me or has Once Upon a Time and Revenge lost their magic? Granted, I don't watch OUAT live like I thought I would a lot of the times because of Sunday Night Football (Fantasy Football has changed my life, LOL) but I did tonight and most of the other episodes I've caught On Demand.

Not so deep thoughts...
We have Gen. Petraeus having an affair with his biographer. There's John Edwards who had an affair with his documentarian. Needless to say, if I was a wife, I would not trust anyone writing an authorized biography or shooting a documentary on my husband. I was going to say female, but you just never know, LOL. I was trying to think of other public affairs that involved biographers or the like. Can you think of any?
