What I find interesting about some viewers (especially women) is the fact that they rip Denise apart for sleeping with Mac, and give excuse Franks sleeping with Jordanna as a small oops. It's amazing to me the whole Double Standard that is imposed when it's a woman as opposed to a man. Frank is the one who set the rules for the seperation and neither one of them said they absolutely weren't going to date. If Denise is going to get slammed then Frank should be slammed as well. inside.......... -- a lurker (Can't Stand Frank...), 07:32:24 11/06/08 Thu [27]
As far as the chemistry between CB and the other actors paired with her, I see alot of chemistry between them and feel she has great chemistry with everyone she's on screen with. And as far as the age difference between Mac and Denise, Mac is 27 and Denise is 39 (Mac's age was posted when they cast the role). That's only 12 years so who really cares. Men have been dating/sleeping with younger women for years and nobody seems to have a problem with it, so if it's ok for men, then it's ok for women and I say more power to them. As far as Mac's bratty EX-GIRLFRIEND (they broke up remember), she should n't be whinny and I'm not sure why Denise ran out, other than it was an awkward moment. I might not be overly thrilled with the storyline, but CB is doing a Great Job with her portrayal and hats off to her. I'll keep tuning in.

I wish Bones would crank it up a notch. It is turning boring and unshipperesque (is that a word?). I am tired of the same old thing and tired of Angela's love life. I wish it was back in season 1. -- BT, 15:51:18 11/06/08 Thu [14]

  - I didn�t like last night�s ep either. The Angela/Roxie thing didn�t bother me, I actually thought it fit the character, but the case was boring. There used to be interesting plots, but lately it�s all become really soapy. I like character development as much as anyone, but I�d like to see more focus on the cases instead of lab dramatics. And Sweets STILL is annoying. For all the genius he is supposed to be, I have yet to see him come up with anything genial. (NT) -- Jam, 07:53:19 11/07/08 Fri

      - LOL - that's OK JJ - I knew exactly what you meant!

        Yes, but at least the tension and jealousy will make things interesting, which will be a nice change of pace from the ho-hum episodes of late. (NT) -- JJ (Ronda), 15:07:35 11/09/08 Sun
        
        True! (NT) -- Gibs, 18:29:00 11/10/08 Mon
- Oddly enough, I just watched this episode, and I loved it! I mean the murderer was obvious but the surrounding story kept me interested. And I wanted to smack the intern upside the head, but I thought the ending was sweet! I don't mind Angela with Roxy on principle, but I still want her back with Hodgins.

- Is something in the water in Hollywood right now? There have been three prime time dramas this months with lesbian themes: House (Thirteen and a patient), GA (Callie and Hahn), and Bones. Sheesh, do the writers all get together and say "this is our theme for the month,"? I don't mind. In fact, I think that gays and lesbians have been left out of the mainstream entertainments industry for too long. (Inside.) -- Cece (Oh and I like Sweets.), 15:42:00 11/09/08 Sun

    - Ok Angela is kinda quirky and out there so I can see it, though not all that wanting to push a real relationship now. She seems like the been there done that, don't need to do it again type to me, Otherwise go back to that fine as heck husband. Anyway, back to the subject - I hate it when they just spring it on a character all of a sudden. Does it happen like that? Seriously? Anybody ever seen it?

We don't want any one show taking over the board. It pushes all the other posts down and defeats the purpose of the board.

If you find there is a lot of different posts necessary for a show whether it be AW, GA, Bones, etc, how about starting up a board and we'll put the link here.

Thanks,

No comments on Army Wives season finale?? I'll start the thread. Since I was once an SJA on a base with about 1000 units of family housing, I'd watch AW even if Catherine Bell wasn't in it. But, if it were canceled I wouldn't miss it the way I miss JAG. Inside for my admittedly biased opinions. -- janlaw, 00:05:08 11/04/08 Tue [20]
What jumps out at me the most after the season finale is the stereotypically written behavior of just about every character. The scriptwriters have just had a field day:

Denise. I've no problem with her riding a motorcycle, or getting a tattoo. I do have a problem with her taking Mac's bike (LOL, to me, Mac will always be a USMC officer on JAG) - it's an ethics violation to accept gifts from patients. I have even more problems with her having sex with a patient or former patient half her age (his status isn't totally clear). Aside from any moral issues, it's a breach of professional ethics. Enter his teenage sweetheart who now wants him back.

Frank. Knew or should have known and alarm bells should have sounded at the invitation for "coffee." Next stereotype - sexually aggressive female officer. The irony is that she's what Frank didn't like about Denise - aggressive as an officer and as a woman, knows what (and who) she wants and went after it. I think Frank saw himself as the victim in his marriage and felt flattered that she wanted him. Felt like a "man." Stereotype.

Jeremy - jumped to the correct conclusion! Will he survive duty in Iraq - he now sees his father as an adulterer - or will he be killed and his death be the catalyst for Frank and Denise to work things out.

Emmalin and Logan. Snotty teenager in "love" and teenage soldier. Unless Logan is on leave (maybe Col Connor gave him leave at his wife's behest??) he is or will be AWOL since I doubt he and Emmalin are just riding around into the sunset on base for a bit. Depending on when he surrenders or is apprehended, it's Article 15 or court-martial. In some states, there's also the matter of statutory rape!

Col Connor and wife - I assume they'll get theirs in S. 3. There's always a bully of an officer and always a wife who thinks she wears her husband's rank on every base. Someone everyone loves to hate. Jennifer had better be careful with the free legal advice on the radio - it could be practicing without a license unless she just happens to be licensed in the state where Fort Marshall is located.

Roxy. I give her credit - she's handled her kids, mother and husband appropriately (my opinion). Now she needs a lawyer - maybe also a P.I. I seem to recall Betty having a lawyer draft the Deed of Trust we saw in a flashback. It's not a "contract on a bar napkin" as her snotty nephew - assuming he is her nephew - contends. I bet there's a Will that hasn't surfaced yet leaving Roxy Betty's half share of the bar/restaurant. The bar/restaurant business is tough (to make a go of) but as long as Fort Marshall isn't closed via another BRAC, she has a ready-made clientele up the road. Roxy seems to have a toughness of spirit and strength of character that have let her rise above the stereotyped single-mother-bartender marrying soldier who picked her up woman the scriptwriters started her out as.

Pamela. Employable if she wants or needs to work. Law enforcement, security, broadcast journalism. Before and after school care is readily available on base. Many military spouses run home day care centers. Her husband has a bad attitude if he's never had a thought that she has at least some regrets that she gave up her career to be a stay-at-home Army wife/mother.

There's a lot of truth in what Pamela said. Civilians who are military spouses are often underpaid/overqualified in whatever dead end job they can get. If their work requires a State license it may take 1/2 the servicemember's tour (typical shore duty tour is 3 years) to take the necessary add'l courses, take and pass the exam and get the license. It's not just doctors, dentists and lawyers who need a license - it's also beauticians and teachers and barbers, real estate agents, cosmetologists and dental hygienists etc etc. No license in the state where your military spouse is stationed - MAYBE you can get a job on base - civil service or as a contractor - generally, a license in ANY state is okay; but contractors in particular pay far less than you'd make in the civilian community. Being a military spouse is a hard job. Just ask mine.

Joan. The orders to Iraq are clearly Col Connor's payback. No knowledge of Army regs, but Navy regs preclude deployment for xxx months after childbirth - I forget the exact number, even though convalescent leave is only six weeks. It may be six months. Last I checked, you have six months after childbirth before you have to take the PT test. Even if Joan has 20 years active duty, the reality is that you can't just retire (or resign) and walk away, especially after orders have been issued (certain JAG episodes notwithstanding). I have sympathy for her, but thousands of men and women are on their 2nd, third, or even fourth tour in Iraq or Afghanistan, missing lots of their children's firsts. Again, she's been written as the stereotype of the female officer torn between duty and family.

Roland. Although his infidelity was just glossed over after the bombing, and he exhibited poor judgment while working at the HS, he has supported Joan in her career and voluntarily taken on house-husband duty when they decided against day care.

Enough from me! What do you all think?

- First, my question is, how do they pull back(if they intend to) with Michael and CJ packed up to leave? If those two go to Brussels, the solid center of the show will be gone, I'll hang in to see what happens, but I'm disapointed in so many ways. Hope Katherine Fugate does come back and that her show hasnt been hacked beyond repair. Inside..... -- mkim If Michael and CJ end up staying at Ft. Marshall, the show really will lose any kind of realism, its hanging by a thread as it is., 15:38:51 11/04/08 Tue
  - Mkim, why is Denise wrong & its a mistake for her, but its not terrible for Frank? Denise is separated as well, Frank is always gone, so forgive me if I'm reading it wrong, but why is it wrong & a mistake for Denise but not terrible for Frank? Isn't that kind of a double standard? I think they both were wrong, but honestly I'm really stymied as to why people are giving Frank a free pass on this, but are unwilling to do the same for Denise. -- Jennifer, 17:20:14 11/04/08 Tue
- I thought the finale was anti-climatic, predictable & even boring. I find that I don�t really care about these characters anymore, and I�m not going to lose any sleep worrying about what might happen next. I really wanted to like this show because of CB, but�not so much. I wish CB & DJE could link up in a network series again. I don�t think either of them have had chemistry with any of their other co-stars. (inside) -- doc, 18:03:53 11/04/08 Tue
  - I don't watch the show, but I enjoy reading all of your comments. Doc, I agree with everything you said. The JAG PTB had a goldmine that they wasted! What missed opportunities! As for your last paragraph, inside. -- JAG Junkie (Ronda), 19:54:51 11/04/08 Tue
  - I also agree with doc. I started watching the show because of CB and with the thought that it might be as inspiring and entertaining as JAG as a military show with alot of truth and, of course, with lots more poetic license for the drama/storylines. It ended up, for me, being TOO predictable, TOO soapy, and just painful to watch. NONE of the couples had chemistry and none of the characters appealed to me. inside -- mj, 03:30:17 11/05/08 Wed

  - It doesnt feel soapy to me. It feels trashy and dirty. When poor little Denise ran from her boy toy's apartment cause his teenage girfriend showed up...i'm sorry I could have cared less. When she cried I didnt feel sorry for her. My first thought were " haha, thats what you get for being a slut." As for Frank... sand fleas in the crotch come to mind. STD's run rampant among single soldiers in the military serving over seas. Maybe he'll get a good does of crotch rot. Then they will both have somethng to whine about. (NT) -- Trish...I absolutely HATE that they ruined this show for me. Can you tell? LOL, 07:03:17 11/05/08 Wed
  - The explosive season finale was more of a dud. The whole episode fell flat for me. I have to agree with Trish, it did feel trashy and dirty. The show is being ruined. (NT) -- Jeanaz8, 12:37:15 11/05/08 Wed
- Thanks Jubellant. I hate this soapy route too and it feels less military now. But yes I have to remember this is Army Wives after all but to see how powerful the ratinsg remain I doubt the protests will matter? Well said doc and Ronda. Is CB hot or what? I feel heartless that I want Frank and Denise over because pathetic moi hopes they cast a new real hunky actor for Bell.Im not being biased but none of the actors CB worked on even perfectly matched DJE-Harm. My boyfriend having seen the legs and bedroom scenes was whining why he was deprive of that from JAG.LOL! (NT) -- Brooke, 22:53:25 11/04/08 Tue
- What I care about is how they will bring Michael and CJ back into the cast. Emmalin is past 16 (16-1/2 or 17) so I doubt there will be statutory rape charges. I don't know, I kind of feel sorry for her. Moving is very hard on teen-agers, and while I know it happens to Army brats all the time, I still think it's hard. I hope they keep the nasty colonel - I like the conflict. That situation with Joan is beyond the pale; I'm sure that will be one of the first things rectified.

It was done sooo well, and I found it both funny and interesting and poignant. GA just cracks me up.

  - I think it's great to show a loving same sex relationship, but I didn't like the clinical bit. I have an imagination and don't want it spelled out for me. What I didn't like was the lesson that Callie was getting from Mark. That was just too devoid of meaning, and frankly, rather vulgar imo. Oh I like Alex. He's real, and I think Izzie sees this.

- The only current shows I watch are Chuck, Bones, and Smallville. I spend more time watching "old" shows than current shows! LOL (NT) -- JAG Junkie (Ronda), 23:21:28 10/29/08 Wed
  - The only shows I watch on network TV are Smallville & Criminal Minds. We watch a lot of Discovery, HGTV, and Disney channel (2 daughters). JJRhonda, how are you liking Smallville this year? I think it's doing really well. (NT) -- Claire B, 09:30:56 10/30/08 Thu
    - I agree--Smallville is doing well this year. That is one show that has certainly seen tons of changes since the first season. Clark and Chloe are the only original characters, and we have moved from high school all the way to the Daily Planet! Inside -- JJ (Ronda), 21:46:43 10/30/08 Thu
      - Okay, I won't spoil it for you, but the end was quite a shocker! Chloe has always been my favorite character, but Lois has really grown on me in the past couple of years. I was a Chlark shipper, but I'm okay with them just being friends as long as she's happy with Jimmy. Lois is so much better for Clark than Lana. I'll check back Monday to see what you thought of the episode. (NT) -- Claire B, 13:43:25 10/31/08 Fri
        
        Just finished it. And I walked 2.7 miles while I watched it! Woohoo! Inside for my thoughts. -- JJ (Ronda), 22:35:26 11/01/08 Sat
        
        Actually, I did know about Chloe being possessed by Brainiac, but it still shocked me to see her kill someone. Allison Mack did a great job with that scene. It's nice to have someone to discuss Smallville with. I lurk at Kryptonsite, but have never gotten up the nerve to post. (NT) -- Claire B, 09:19:21 11/03/08 Mon
        
        I actually don't post there either. I read the announcements and news items, Triplet's ep reviews, and the spoilers page, but I hardly ever go to the message board. Inside -- JJ (Ronda), 19:12:32 11/03/08 Mon
- For me, it's Bones, Masterpiece Theatre, because of election, lots of news channels. Loved summer's Burn Notice, Keen Eddie, Eurkea. Sometimes Army Wives. Also watch Project Runway, Top Chef, Design Star, Looks like I'm mostly out of the loop. (NT) -- ConK, 11:29:07 10/30/08 Thu
- I can't seem to get the time to watch anything other than the reruns of JAG and Little Britian and Conan O'Brien. I will watch Medium about 2-3 times a month and SVU a couple times a month. SVU is, indeed, always a good watch. Maybe now that things have settled down for me, I'll get to watch more TV, but nothing really grabs me. (NT) -- mj, 13:17:25 10/30/08 Thu

- Don't kill me, but I've been watching NCIS reruns. I figure it's been 3 years since JAG's passing, so I can finally let go of my grudge. Plus it's been a great distraction from all the election news. It's actually a pretty good show! And since I have absolutely no intention of "shipping" for any of the characters, I'm actually pretty free to just enjoy. Shrug, who knows, maybe it's the scientist in me??? (NT) -- doc, who's hoping not to lose her Harmyboard membership., 22:00:08 10/30/08 Thu

    - Well I'm the 2nd Banana, and I've been watching NCIS in reruns. Judi has yet to revoke my HB membership, but I'm still waiting....LOL. I can take or leave NCIS, but it's on at 7pm while we are having dinner. My DH likes it, so what the hey. There's no way I'll get hooked on the characters though. (NT) -- Cece, 11:42:58 10/31/08 Fri
- NCIS and Grey's in season; The Closer and AW in the summer season! I like to be entertained. (NT) -- janlaw, 00:29:11 10/31/08 Fri
- SYTYCD is just fabulous I like that it is the judges that get the final say at the end when contestants have to dance for their lives. It is amazing to see the dancers conquer routines outside of their genres. I like AW, Grey's, The Unit, SVU, CSI and 24. (NT) -- Jubellant, 11:41:07 10/31/08 Fri
  - Jubellant, have you been watching SYTYCD US? The Canadian version has only some slight differences, but the general format is exactly the same. When it comes to the top 10, the dancers have different partners every week (names pulled from a hat), and who goes home is entirely up to the voters. The judges have no say. The voters get to vote for the individual dancers, not the couple. (inside) -- Cece, 12:20:43 10/31/08 Fri
    - Cece I have not seen the US version and just happened across the Canadian version by fluke and was hooked. I was surprised by the high calibre and unique individual styles of the dancers. Emanuel Sandhu was certainly amazing to watch. Exposure is everything and I have a feeling this will help him. (NT) -- Jubellant, 13:13:21 10/31/08 Fri
OK, I LIKE Alex. -- can j, 01:01:26 10/31/08 Fri [8]
Alex has always been my favourite character on G.A. Tonight, he really came through. I have a lot of high hopes for him and Izzy. Am I the only one who feels this?

- He's okay but it was the four pigs who I Iiked! And Bailey. (NT) -- janlaw, 07:39:04 10/31/08 Fri
  - You mean Babe, Horace and the other two. I LOVED how she changed from "Don't name the pigs" to giving full reports on each one, using their names. Not too sure about the new traum surgeon though, a little too much "stabilize and transfer". (NT) -- can j, 14:18:09 10/31/08 Fri
- Have to admit Bailey is my favourite too. I also liked Yang's outrage at getting stuck with bacon and how she was in hog heaven after she managed to keep them all alive. (NT) -- Jubellant, 11:25:52 10/31/08 Fri
- Bailey is the most interesting character in the show. I wonder why the "hot" male doctors (Derrick and Mark) have been so skimpily written. They have no personalities, or if they have, we don't get to see them. I think that Derrick has to be the most boring character on tv. It's a good job he is cute, but talk about under utilizing the actor's skills. Alex and George at least have been given something to chew on as far as roles, but GA is definitely a women-focussed show. (NT) -- Cece, 11:37:01 10/31/08 Fri
  - I kind of like that the women are the focus and the men are window dressing. The opposite of a DPB show. LOL! (NT) -- Shell, 11:06:20 11/01/08 Sat
    - I don't mind that if that's what the show is supposed to be (like DH). Maybe I have got it wrong. I thought that GA was an ensemble show about doctors of both genders. (NT) -- Cece, 13:38:27 11/01/08 Sat
Is anyone still watching Army Wives? I think that Denise is losing herself instead of finding herself. Do you suppose that having sex with someone other than her husband was on her list of things to do? -- * - Pit fu was my captcha requirement. It's pitiful all right., 15:52:42 10/28/08 Tue [28]

4. We don't look like a frog in a blender when dancing.

5. No fashion faux pas we make, could ever rival the Speedo.

6. We don't have to pass gas to amuse ourselves.

7. If we forget to shave, no one has to know.

8. We can congratulate our teammate without ever touching her rear end.

9. We never have to reach down every so often to make sure our privates are still there.

10. We have the ability to dress ourselves.

11. We can talk to the opposite sex without having to picture them naked.

12. If we marry someone 20 years younger, we are aware that we will look like an idiot.

13. We will never regret piercing our ears.

14. There are times when chocolate really can solve all your problems.

15. We can make comments about how silly men are in their presence because they aren't listening anyway.

I thought this was a Harm site. -- maximus, 13:31:00 10/25/08 Sat [12]
After reading all the chatter about AW and CB, I need to ask the question again. Isn't this supossed to be a site dedicated to our favorite aviator? I can see more than I want to of CB on many sites on the internet.

IMHO all the networks should run decent programs at 10 PM on Sunday night and put AW out of it misery. The Unit put it away or me. The original plot of "Under the Sabers" was a search to find why so many soldiers were killing their unfaithful wives. Maybe it is time.

Any new info on when Gooby and Rainbow Tribe will take DJE to the big screens?

How many of the United States can you name/type in 10 minutes?

The page will put each state in alpha order as you type it, and will only accept it if you spell it correctly. Caps optional.

- Question for Americans. Is there a way of learning all the states in some kind of order, like the alphabet? I know them all, but just have to go on random memory. Did you have a song at school when you were kids? (NT) -- Cece, 14:12:00 10/16/08 Thu
  - Can anyone name all the Canadian provinces and territories? It's not hard as there are only 13 in total. (NT) -- Cece, 14:13:09 10/16/08 Thu
    - Inside -- lska, 17:33:00 10/16/08 Thu
      - Yay Iska! I'm impressed you got Nunavut, as it has only been a separate territory for a few years. (NT) -- Cece, 17:49:05 10/16/08 Thu
        
        Crud, I can't even get lska's name right! It's like Captcha, I always mix the L, I, O, and 0 (NT) -- Cece, 17:51:19 10/16/08 Thu
  - Cece, read my post above. The song is alphabetical. (NT) -- JAG Junkie (Ronda), 17:15:59 10/16/08 Thu
- OMG, I finally did it in 4 minutes and 99 seconds. I'm obsessive about stuff like this, so I listed the alphabet and how many states in each letter. The first time I tried it I got it down to missing 3 states. Then I finally got all. (NT) -- Cece...an non-American taking a bow...LOL., 15:02:49 10/16/08 Thu
- Two minutes and thirteen seconds. But I've been watching a lot of election coverage -- don't think I'd have them all at my fingertips so fast in another year. :D (NT) -- lska, 17:37:44 10/16/08 Thu
  - I want to learn the alphabet/state song JJ. Lska, I'm impressed again. (NT) -- Cece, 17:52:31 10/16/08 Thu
    - If you want to hear the state song aka "Fifty Nifty United States", I put a link inside. I think it originally came from "School House Rock" back in the day. Inside for link -- JAG Junkie (Ronda), 20:24:20 10/16/08 Thu
      - LOL!!! THAT's not remotely helpful! You'd have to be a genius kid to learn that song. It's not a rhyming song like ABC. But it was fun. Actually, I've just realized that when I list each alphabet letter with the number of states, I can now go through the alphabet and name them all. All these years, I've been randomly hoping about my memory map. (NT) -- Cece, 20:39:08 10/16/08 Thu
        
        Well, it's easier to memorize things when you're a kid. And what you memorize when you're young stays with you. I still know this song like the back of my hand, along with TV themes and other less important songs. But I can't remember the songs we did in choir just a few months ago. BTW--I timed myself. I can SING all 50 states in 21 seconds. But if I had to type them out and spell them correctly, well, I don't have that much time tonight. LOL (NT) -- JJ (Ronda), 22:21:35 10/16/08 Thu
      - I agree with Cece, glad that I don't have anywhere near that to remember (form either country I can claim) (NT) -- Katiegirl, 22:30:30 10/16/08 Thu
        
        from either country (NT) -- Katiegirl (who really needs to remember to read before she posts), 01:14:57 10/17/08 Fri
- 46 (with 41 in 4 minutes)...I managed to forget ALL the I�s..... (NT) -- Jam, who thinks her score is not bad for a sleep-deprived European who really should be in bed by now, 18:53:55 10/16/08 Thu
- May have taken me almost the entire ten minutes, but I did manage to get all of them. Can't believe I almost forgot Alaska though. DUH (NT) -- Katiegirl, 22:16:42 10/16/08 Thu
- I've become obsessed with this and getting faster and faster. I have now got it down to 3min 5 seconds. (NT) -- Cece ( I need stuff like this to keep my brain from stagnating...lol.), 11:33:37 10/17/08 Fri
  - Me too CeCe! I've got it down to 2 minutes & 15 seconds LOL! Its fun, the hard part is typing the states, you know what you want to type & sometimes that doesn't end up in the little box LOL! (NT) -- Jennifer, 13:24:13 10/17/08 Fri
    - Dang....I'm just going to have to get faster to beat you. But first I need a nap..lol. (NT) -- Cece, 15:49:57 10/17/08 Fri
      - I want to see if I can crack the two minute mark, but my fingers I have a feeling won't cooperate LOL! Let me know how you do after your nap ;) (NT) -- Jennifer, 16:57:25 10/17/08 Fri
        
        I keep getting hung up with one M. I did 9 in 2:40 and I don't think I can beat that. I'll keep trying though. (NT) -- Cece, 23:39:05 10/17/08 Fri
- that was fun... thnks "the Chief" (NT) -- M, 15:15:41 10/17/08 Fri
- Gee, y'all! I had no idea this would be such a hit!! At least now you don't have to spend $150 for a Nintendo DS and "Brain Age" game. You can just do this all day! LOL (NT) -- The Chief (i wonder if there are any other game like this on that site... hmm....), 18:08:32 10/17/08 Fri
  - Well I've known all the US states for years and years, but now, because of this post, I can recite them all in alphabetical order right off the top of my head. Thanks Chief. My brain needs all the encouragement it can get. (NT) -- Cece, 21:45:40 10/17/08 Fri
    - Jennifer, you win!! I got it down to 2 minutes and 24 seconds, and that's the best I can do. I'm satisfied with the silver medal...lol. (NT) -- Cece, 16:00:22 10/18/08 Sat
      - WAIT, I'll have to settle for the bronze. GOLD-Lska 2:13, SILVER-Jennifer 2:15, BRONZE-Cece 2:24. Everyone will have to wait till next year's Olympics to break the records..LOL. (NT) -- Cece, 16:06:14 10/18/08 Sat
