Hello everyone,
Welcome to [insert pause for effect here] The Mac Zone!
"What's The Mac Zone?" I hear you all saying. The Mac Zone is a zone where all stupidity and irritations are put. I have a very odd and diverse way of looking at things, and here, in The Mac Zone you will get to read about it all.
Many of you will still have no idea no idea what The Mac Zone is, but read a few posts and that should brighten up your mind.
The Mac Zone is not a 'cool' zone to be in. If you are in it, you are an idiot and should be shot dead.
Enjoy!

Over the past few months when I have been awaiting the return of the House M.D Ive been browsing through numerous spoiler and gossip sites. Like all of us I was hoping for the return of Chase, Foreman and the beautiful Cameron. The spoilers I read gave me the impression that my preyers had been answered sort of.
Most of the spoilers I read more-or-less said the same thing; the entire team would be back
Plus more! When I first read this I was very excited for one reason and one reason only: Kal Penn (Indian guy from Val Wilder: Party Liason) would be part of the new team! I think Kal Penn is an amazing actor and I think that he would fit in very well with the House team.
What the spoilers seemed to imply is that all three of Houses old team would return but they would be leading their own department and House would hire a new team of three Including Kal Penn.
After sleeping on this for a night my opinion changed on the new season. If it was just the old team returning and they were leading their own department that would be great and if they didnt return and House had to hire a complete new team that would also be a great. But add them both together and its just too much. If you add everyone up there would be a total of 9 personalities. 9 Personalities is way too much to be focussing on and I honestly thought that the show was going to throw away its amazing three season run.
Last night the season return premiered. I didnt know what to expect. Although I was extremely looking forward to it I didnt want to witness the beginning of the end for such a great show.
As always the episode started out the patient and their illness. Most of the starting scenarios have been alike in some way or another. This one, however, was different. We witness a young girl who had a building collapse on her.
I was impressed in the first few minutes of the episode. If they can start with a completely new scenario that hasnt been seen before after 3 seasons imagine what else they can do?
I have to admit I really didnt want to watch the intro for the fear that instead of being short and snappy and only showing the cast names of 6 characters it would be dragged out and long with the names of three new cast members.
1,2,3,4,5,6
..6?!?!!?
Only 6 cast members to count! So far thats a good sign. It seems like we have the old team returning and no one else to familiarise ourselves with.
We saw the opening scene maintain the same smugness and wit that we have come to love from the series; and guess what? House isnt the only witty and smug character in the show anymore. Now his best friend, Wilson has stepped up his game and is now on Houses level.
To Wilson and Cuttys dismay, House has yet to even conduct an interview for his new team selection process is forced to diagnose the patient on his own or is he?
Big medical words, blah blah blah House announces to the table at where his team used to sit. Obviously, the table provides no answer.
Are you talking to me?
Yes, I am.
Who said that, do you ask? The janitor, of course. Say hello to the first member of Houses new team
For now.
Mean while Wilson has taken Houses new electric guitar for ransom and he wont be returning it until he received the nice sum of a few interviews for the Houses department.
Obviously House doesnt give in easily, and has two humorous retaliation and revenge strategies in store for Wilson. Firstly, after failing to convince Wilson to return his guitar House sends out a fake page to Wilson to return to the hospital and then breaks into his apartment to try and find his beloved guitar. After trashing the apartment house decides to see what programs Wilson has recorded lately. It seems that Wilson is trying to learn Spanish and he has recorded quite few teach yourself programs.
Wilson, obviously angry, fights back by sending a piece of the guitar to Houses office. House the bursts into Wilsons office, outraged. Wilson claims he knows nothing about it.
House now has nothing left to do. He must take one of Wilsons patients as a hostage.
While all this has been happening we also watched as House use his standard methods to diagnose the patient, although it is proven to be more difficult without a team than he first suspected. He had gotten rid of the janitor because he was useless and he informed the patient that he is only the janitor and not a real doctor.
Like I said, House does all the usual guess and check luck stuff and every time he fixes what he thought was wrong with her a new problem arises. House also reveals series of lies that the girl had been telling to her loving boyfriend who was on the phone to her at the time of the building collapse. Some of the lies include: Drugs, alcohol and an abortion. Apparently the couple both wanted children and had been trying for quite a while. The boyfriend was crushed because of all the lies and betrayal by his girlfriend.
After Wilson storms into Houses office and enters a heated discussing about taking the whole thing too far by taking a patient hostage House has one of his brain waves after something that Wilson has said.
The patient, who I forget to mention, was in a terrible state (Obvious! A building collapsed on her!) And you couldnt recognise her. The girl that they were trying to treat passed away some hours ago, and this was in fact a completely different patient who was also in the same building.
After realising this, the news had to be broken that the girl had already died. House showed what will most likely and hopefully be his most sympathetic moment in this series saying to the boyfriend Your girlfriend didnt lie to you.
The end scene shows Cutty finally getting through to House, telling him that Had Cameron been there she wouldnt have believed that the boyfriend could be living with her and not notice all of that stuff, and had Foreman been there he would have been trying to prove your theories wrong and had Chase been there he would have been trying to prove House right. House needed a new team and it was finally time to start the selection process.
I dont know how many of you pay attention to the camera during movies or television shows, but I do. The pilot for each new series is always shot like its a home made movie. The camera is shaky and the angles that are shot arent always the best ones. There quite a few times in the episode when I felt like I was watching the pilot. This is the strongest negative that I can point out for the first episode of season 4.
All thought this wasnt the very best episode and it would have been good to see some old faces I think it is great for a series return and its going to keep us in anticipation for the next episodes. Will the old team be back or will there be a new one? Or both.
I, for one, cant wait!

Obviously you have some issues about your weight. Before meeting with him I sugest that you clear up those issues and do something to feel good about yourself.
You mentioned in there that you just want to get. What I sugest is to go and do that. Go and get as much as you can. The more you get the more comfortable you will feel with yourself.
I'm sure that you have some male friends who could help you out for a few nights.
Also, be cautious with internet dating. Make sure that you tell someone when are where you are meeting him - Just incase something goes wrong.
