Hayden,cool! Can you believe the HFQ?!(Dude, it's a gritty show and I was manifestly surprised,I thought there could be an upgrade, profanity-wise.) And I want it in my obit that I taught David Simon the expression HSQ although he's been applying the skill for a very long time. Been watching season 2 again, but stopped for a bit because Frank Sobatka makes me cry like a little girl. Guess I need crimping up, still. Maybe it was even "HMFSHQ" Damn, that's The Bomb. I've done everything I can do but get on my knees to save it...would that be solicitation...Levy would know. "I'm like a marriage counselor...here so he remembers to bring flowers and she remembers to suck a little cock." It would be funny, if not terribly productive, if Simon brings a bouquet to the next sit-down with the brass.

Quentin was there just to be Quentin, I imagine.

From IMDB about this:

Robert Rodriguez scored Kill Bill: Vol. 2 (2004) for $1. Quentin Tarantino said he would repay him by directing a segment of this movie for $1. Tarantino, a vocal proponent of film-over-digital, has said that he was curious to get hands-on experience with the HD cameras which Rodriguez lauds. When asked about his experience, Tarantino merely replied, "Mission Accomplished."

There was one beat the mean streets of Balmer couldn't prepare Simon for, Hayden. Fandom. There's no Kevlar for that, bunk. Reaction to Specific Major Plot Point? Majorly crazy...

Sean, did you see it at the theater? Or online? Because I want to know what it looks like on the big screen.

Not Sean, but I saw a preview on the big screen before THE AVIATOR and it looked effing amazing. I think my entire verbal reaction was "Oh HELL yeah!" followed by a full-on laugh of appreciation.

Or Buffista Movies IV: Straight To Video?

Ooh, I like this.

erika and Hayden pimpage has moved The Wire up on the list of must-own DVD sets.

I have been by Frank Miller's apartment to pick up art from him. t /comic book namedropping

I have been by Frank Miller's apartment to pick up art from him.

But I bet you haven't been to Robert Rodriguez's.

But I bet you haven't been to Robert Rodriguez's.

No, but I did shake hands with Jack Kirby which is way more important to me.

::tries to think of Hollywood name-dropping options. Fails.::

I had breakfast with Scrappy and she's met all kinds of Movie Stars!

Also, my ex-roommate, totally smoked a doobie with William Hurt.

::trails off into second-hand lame-itude...:

You can't use Scrappy to claim secondhand connections ... she's Scrappy! Don't dismiss her intrinsic worth.

No kidding. The word is that Simon is planning to take on public education next. With all the sheer emotion he's wrenched from institutions of the Drug War, local government bureaucracy, and failing unionism, how could HBO say no to that? Seriously, HMFSHQ about has it. And the writing! How many references to The Wild Bunch can they squeeze into three seasons? I thought Buffy, Angel, and Firefly had as many as you could make, but Joss couldn't contend with that scene in Season Two of The Wire when Bodie went to buy flowers and delivered the perfect ebonics take on Pike Bishop's best quote. Jeez, those guys are good. Really, I don't know if I could pimp this show enough. I'm still a bit in shock from the Season Three finale. If that's the end, so be it, 'cause it's not a bad place to end. But I would have said that after Season Two, also.

Seriously, y'all. Watch this show. From the beginning. And give it a few episodes to get under your skin. David, if you get to be the fanatic I am now, I have burnt DVDs of Season Three I could send you.

Dude, Hayden's got testers. ;)(Dealers give out samples just as much as people selling anything else. Then the fiends watch and see who gets knocked back the hardest, from what. Samples=testers.) I mostly hate the Westerns, babe, Pelecanos forgive me, so I don't know from The Wild Bunch Is it that I'm a good pimp or just fucking relentless, Hec?

Or do you like its effect on my language? I may have to quit HBO.com. They harsh on my fictional boyfriend too much.
