Channel 5 appears to be showing UFC. No one told me of this so several people in RL who know that I like my fight-sports are totally sacked. Last night was UFC 91. So first UFC show I see features one Brock Lesnar, and, given the condition that you have to be in to fight UFC style, it's amazing that he was less muscled than during his WWE run. No, Vince, your company doesn't have a steroid problem at all.
I think I would have got more out of it if I'd know what the rule are, particularly in regards to open handed strikes.
So happy to see Brock win though.

TV meme: Day 20 - Favourite Kiss
There are any number of cases where kissing was accompanied by a shout of "finally" by yours truly (but I am in no way as bad as my housemates were regarding Will Schuester and Miss Pillsbury), but none of those have made it in.
My favourite is a toss-up between the kiss between Chiana and D'Argo in the Peacekeeper Wars
So they've been tossed out of an airlock by the Scarrans (I think), and there's a beautiful shot of them spinning in space against as star-field, and they're kissing, partly because they've finally sorted out some of their issues, and partly because D'Argo can store some oxygen in his lungs so it'll give them a bit more time. And it's just beautifully shot.
My other option is Stuart kissing Hazel in the first episode of the second "series" of Queer as Folk, because it's using a kiss to tell a story, and it's Stuart being Stuart and horribly blunt and deliberately cruel. And, of course, it's a totally non-romantic kiss, because I enjoy being an awkward blighter.
