Just in case anyone missed it, yesterday's post was a spoof of the classic Bill Murray movie "Groundhog Day."

Last night on "The Office", the employees left their office environment to interact with the workers in the company's warehouse. As they descended the stairwell that leads to the warehouse, Dwight looks at the camera and says "This is just like that episode of Lost when the castaways encountered The Others."

On "Survivor" they did something different for a change. They divided everyone into four tribes of younger men, older men, younger women and older women. What they did not change is the hokey lines that Jeff Probst says year after year : "Fire represents life", and so on and so on. He's even looking bored saying it.

A&E televised a dramatization of the events of 9/11, centering around Flight 93, the plane that crashed in the Pennsylvania field. Very well done but too soon? It hasn't even been five years. In other basic cable movie news, the Discovery Channel is televising "Grizzly Man" tonight - the story of a man who lived with wild bears... and then got killed by them.

Yay, TiVo.

Super Bowl prediction - the Pittsburgh Steelers will win. The waiter at the Chinese restaurant I went to the other day agrees with me.

Finally, tomorrow is a very special day for this blog!
