Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

She mentions something about the others being the "carriers". Carriers of what? Has this come up at all?

Okay, I obviously need sugar or something, 'cause this made me laugh like an idiot.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Are there any bears even vaguely native to that presumed geography?

Not really. The closest are sun bears in Borneo and Sumatra.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Oh yeah, this repeat reminds me. Somebody called me on this, and thank you, you're totally right. I was being absolutely hypocritical to praise Lost for it's racially correct casting, referring to really just the Asians and Australians. Kinda continent-blind of me to not call them on the Iraqi roles. So, sorry 'bout that.

I believe that we will take the non-sinking sheep of love and will go far away to the ocean...

And even small bears require a lot of territory. Same as any large predator.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm of two minds of this, but I do have to wonder -- is it better to cast DDK as a kinda convincing Korean native, or someone from Japan whose Korean is fluent and casual?

'cause this made me laugh like an idiot.

You won't hear me judging you.

I forgot tonight was a repeat. I am bummed.

At least we got a preview for the next new one. On the downside, I left my TV on and got sucked into Alias for a bit when I heard Larry Sullivan's voice. Though I suppose it's worth putting up with some highly unlikely suburban satire for the chance to listen to him.

Mostly horrified reactions from various people, with someone asking if Ethan was stll out there and someone else saying "I hope not." Then they showed Charlie and Ethan facing off in the jungle and the latter grabbing the former by his neck.
