Calling all the rabid fans of the television show that brings eight mature adults together once a week and causes them to pass an eight inch action figure around is about to begin. As of this posting we have 17 days and 5 hours to mentally prepare ourselves to squander away 24 hours on a show that will ultimately frustrate us. But we will have gotten together approximately 20 times by the end of the season. And really, aren't life groups about relationships anyway.
Actually, what is more relationship building than watching Jack slowly succumb to the tug on his heart strings as he saves the world and everyone doubts him only to lose his heart as he makes another personal sacrifice. Sorry I was thinking about Seasons 1-7...
If you have seen the trailer for this season you have seen the new offices of CTU. Apparently most of the stimulus package was spent at this new facility. This is a nice segue to my new section, Points to Ponder.
Points to Ponder
1. I would liked to have seen Jack take out the underwear bomber on the plane to Detroit.
2. Do you think the Obama Party Crashers would have made it past the door if Jack was running security?
3. Ever notice that Jack never has a "systemic failure?"
4. Sorry that's not true there was Audrey in Season 6.
5. This season takes place in NY City. Lets see how they negotiate that traffic.
6. WARNING: I may puke during the first episode as Jack plays Grampuh. Really?! Grampuh?! Really?!

I would like to correct one impression that may have been left by our fearless and verbosely talented leader. Being a grandparent may actually make Jack a better man. Let's give him the benefit of the doubt on that one. It is, however, understandable that until you are one, you may tend to underestimate the value added to one's wisdom and ability to make hard-hitting spur-of-the-moment decisions. We'll see if that is the case for Jack.
Please don't misunderstand. The comment is nothing to do with being a grandparent. Its the name they chose to use, Grampuh. It sounds so Santa Claus. How about Papa Jack? He's a pistol packin', terrorist eliminatin', one man military task force for cryin' out loud! Not Grampuh.
Hey, I see Jack Power has begun. Does anyone know who is the keeper of "our" action figure? And who wants to host the first show, no wait, that's us , we do!!We will depend upon our lifegroup leader, (that's you, Eric) to figure out the rotating schedule. Can't wait for all of the action and I hope we have no drop outs.....
Attention 24 Lifegroup and little Jack action figure:
Though I am unable to make it to the safehouse tonight for the riveting premiere of 24, know that I am in a secure location and watching along with you as 'Grampuh' saves the world yet again!
Currently I am working on a high priority mission that is keeping me on the other side of the HRBT know as 'THRS' -- expect it to hit airwaves at 8:00am New York time, tomorrow morning.
I hope to reconnect with you all soon, in the meantime, I will see you here, at the blogspot. Here's hoping Madam President gets kicked out within the 1st hour of the show!
