Culture, popular and otherwise

I finally did watch the first two episodes of Californication.  It is absolutely filthy!  And decadent, and not morally redeeming in any way.  David Duchovny's character, Hank, is immature, selfish, lazy, a bad parent, and obsessed with sex.  I am really looking forward to the next episode.  

This show also demonstrates that David Duchovny can act.  As much as I loved him in the X-files, I was never sure if he was acting or just being himself.  But Hank is so totally different from Mulder.

On the literary front, my current books are Summer Night (the 4th on the Dresden Files series) which i said I wasn't going t read any more of, but they're sort of addictive, and The Kite Runner, which is as good as people say it is.  
 
I finished Cell when I was on vacation.  Not to spoil it for everyone, but that's really a cliff-hanger ending!
