Woke up, put clothes on, went to work.

I watched "The O.C.," the new 90210-ish Fox drama, Monday, and was shocked by something. Both Peter Gallagher and Tate Donovan were playing fathers of teenagers. Before that, I had always considered them young guys, possibly even members of my generation. Peter Gallagher has played the same "Single Guy" role in a string of movies and shows. So it's frightening to see both of them suddenly taking "Dad" roles. A check of IMDB shows that Donovan is 40 (still fairly young) and Gallagher is 48, which I wouldn't have known. Another sign I'm aging.

The hurricane is now a top story, but still isn't expected to hit us. But one new turn and...pow!
