Jack Bauer could strangle you with a cordless phone

If you’re a regular member of the Jack Bauer Power Hour, then you already know that tonight at 7 p.m. (central) will be the start of the sixth season of “24″ in full glory. Yes, I’m aware the first four episodes of the season have been leaked on BitTorrent, but I’m all about waiting.

So, how can you fill the time while waiting?

If you haven’t seen it yet, check out the trailer for season 6.

Also, you can check out the 10-minute prequel to season 6.

You can download the distinct CTU-phone ringtone.

Or you can read this list of Jack Bauer facts:

+ Once, someone tried to tell Jack Bauer a “knock knock” joke. Jack Bauer found out who was there, who they worked for, and where the goddamned bomb was.

+ If everyone on “24″ followed Jack Bauer’s instructions, it would be called “12.”

+ Jack Bauer once won a game of Connect 4 in 3 moves.

+ Jack Bauer doesn’t miss. If he didn’t hit you it’s because he was shooting at another terrorist twelve miles away.

+ Jack Bauer once opened a can of whoop ass. All he found inside was a mirror.

+ When playing “Truth or Dare,” Jack Bauer dares you not to tell him the truth.

Enjoy the new season.

The second part of the season premier began a few minutes ago.

I was just looking at this weblog entry, which I found via the main “24″ Wikipedia article. I saw your name in the last trackback link to that entry. I see that you have started blogging again; I hope that your past entries are still online, at the TPS Report.

I remember, towards the end of last season, when iTunes finally added 24 to its list of shows… I don’t think it had anything to do with my advocacy

My computer however, has more recently been experiencing a lot of problems, when playing iTunes videos… They freeze up now, it seems every time. I don’t know if it’s a problem with my laptop, or with iTunes. (It happens even when I try to play iTunes vids using the QuickTime Player, instead of the iTunes software, so maybe it’s the former.)

I was thinking last night that Fox would be streaming the season premier (which I missed) for free, from the Fox website, as Fox, ABC, NBC, and especially, CBS, have been doing. But when I looked earlier today, it was not there.

Oh well, Wikipedia will be fine.
