18 December 1997

Has anyone noticed that every episode of the X Files is unnecessarily dark? Scully walks into a house/motel room/office/meat packing plant and always walks immediately into the bathroom without turning on the lights (well, I've never noticed the bathroom in the meat packing plants). Mulder always seems to just pick up and go places where he knows he's going to come close to death, and it's always dark there. When it's not dark, it's raining.

Even the official X-Files web site is dark. The grandaddy of all X Files index sites isn't dark, but that could be an oversight. I'm sure the creator meant for it to be black.

I'm going to stop now before the color scheme on this page gives me permanent temporal lobe damage. Go on to Amber's Pages, and I'll promise tomorrow's page will be lighter.
