Dear Cable System:
If you do a Broadcast System Test at this time next week, I'm coming over and kicking your ass.
Hugs, kisses and warnings not to fuck with me,

What is it with the cable systems picking prime time to test their systems, anyway? Actually, I think they give too much power to the local police without explaining that they are likely to piss off the citizenry with tests of Amber alerts, and thunderstorm/tornado tests during primetime season finals in May. And anytime else.
Save the tests for after the early news, people. Or, you know, 3 am.

Short mention of THE INSIDE from the Boston Globe (in an article on Summer shows), with a little quote from our boy (if there's a review, it won't be until next week most likely):
In a departure for Fox, the network will air a drama series that is grittier than its typical summer fare. ''The Inside," which debuts June 8 at 9 p.m., concerns an FBI violent crimes unit in Los Angeles. Rebecca Locke is a rookie in the unit with a secret: She was abducted and held captive as a child. Unfortunately, her superiors know her secret and intend to exploit her special insight into the criminal mind, even if she gets hurt.
''Her boss . . . puts her in danger," says Tim Minear, an executive producer on the series. ''But he may be pushing her toward something that helps her heal. Or he may be sadistic. We'll have to see."

Folding money says the answer to that last bit is: A little of both. Why limit yourself.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I'm feeling a little like a six year old in sitting in front of a big chocolate cake with my mouth duct taped shut and told that I can't have a piece until next week.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Me too. I'll be in Nashville. But the TiFaux is set for a series recording.

It could be worse. You could spending Wednesday night on a plane on the way to Vancouver to spend 5 days with your mother (who likes to remind you you used to be skinny), your aunt (who likes to console you for every little thing your mother/her sister says), and your uncle (who likes to feed people and who hit on you the last time you saw him.)
