Your dad always rides whales bareback
Three-day weekend, y’all. I’ll leave the porch light on here at Warming Glow, but the doors’ll be locked and I won’t be back until Tuesday morning. Unless something really important happens, like the CBS headquarters gets blown up or I find a picture of a Hitler cat in an SS uniform overseeing Jew cats getting on a train.
And you and I aren’t the only ones chillin’ out maxin’ relaxin’ all cool this weekend: most TV stations are mailing it in with various marathons of whatever they have the rights to. After the jump, a full list of said marathons, reblogged from Interesting Pile. My pick of the weekend: Monday’s “Whale Wars” marathon on Animal Planet. I’d stay in to watch it, but I’m actually going to be at a Whale War reenactment. Abe Lincoln rarely gets credit for it, but he also freed Willy.

NOTABLE EXCLUSION: new episode of Mad Men tonight.
Something really important just happened, Matt:

I just found out I have to spend NFL’s opening day working. Pity me.
