The Nordberg boys plus myself and the Skoglund kids and Kay were introduced to House.
In between the different activities which had to be attended to we sat as lumps, glued to the television, watching episode after episode of House. We were hooked! Totally mindless!
We came back to the States and immediately introduced my neices, Laura and Jen, to this strange fascination.
Dad joined the mix at various times, just to see if he could be as smart as Gregory House. Diagnosis after diagnosis was shouted out. Could he get the answer before the third emergency was revealed to the watching audience?
Now we are recording each new episode for any who may have missed that week's show. And random people stop by, (this week, four Clarkson seniors plus Laura) gather around the kitchen TV, sitting in uncomfortable chairs bent forward to view the unfolding drama. What you can't see is Rob and myself, eating our dinner of sandwiches at the kitchen table, totally trying to come up with the current disease entity.
What strange thing will House do this week? No, hospital administrators do not wear seductive clothing and no, treatment is usually not started until the diagnosis is established but......
This may be the beginning of a new weekly fellowship group....
We have the Monday Menu at 34. Now perhaps the weekly viewing at 42!

We are House fans here in MN as well. It was solidified by the writer's strike and the corner video store. Even our Italian foreign exchange student, who rarely watches TV, is a fan. Unfortunately, it comes on far too early here and we do not have the ability to record it so we've missed out on most of what's happened this season. Maybe over Christmas break we can all gather around the computer and catch up.
PS. One of my Black Friday bargains was the entire seasons for $14.99 each. Now to figure out if I really want to give them away...
