My review of the Big Finish adventure Dr. Who The Vengeance of Morbius is now available at Amazon here.
This is the 2nd part of a two part story so you will want to listen to Sisters of the Flame first.
This one was as exciting as Phobos was blah.

My review of the Big finish Audio Drama Phobos staring Paul McGann as the 8th doctor is now available at Amazon.com here
Whatever you do, don’t pick up this episode as the first one you listen to. If you do, you won’t bother with the rest and that would be a shame as it one of the least interesting episodes they have done.

My review of the Big finish Audio Drama Immortal Beloved staring Paul McGann as the 8th doctor is now available at Amazon.com here
It’s a pretty good short story, but the more of these short ones I hear the more I think that McGann is wasted on single CD episodes. I would like to see more two CD episodes with him.
Some pleasant surprises

Nothing like pleasant surprises its like finding a $20 in your pocket.
#1 John Stewart and the daily show tweaking Obama:
Hey, credit Jon Stewart with daring to acknowledge what no one in the press will, even if he’d rather not: that the “arrogant swaggering cowboy” did the things he did, and said what he said, because those are the things you do and say to terrorists, whether the Upper West Side likes it, or not.
Obama – getting those daily threat reports – has figured it out.
And apparently, the left has figured out that “when Obama says it, he doesn’t really mean it, so that gives me hope.”
#2 The ACLU sues Muslims over public funding:
The Minnesota chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union says it’s suing a charter school that caters to Muslim students.
The ACLU names Tarek ibn Ziyad Academy, or TiZA, and the Minnesota Department of Education in a lawsuit in federal court that says the charter school is using taxpayer money to illegally promote religion.
The charter school, which has campuses in Inver Grove Heights and Blaine, has fallen under fire after a substitute teacher claimed the school was offering religious instruction in Islam to its students.
Still waiting for a ACLU suit on the Boston Mosque but I’ll take the steps I can get.
And if the British Pound keeps dropping I will be able to afford to restart the Big Finish Dr. Who subscription. It is already $40 cheaper online with shipping then locally. As of today the Companion Chronicles are barely over $10 each at that’s INCLUDING shipping from England.
