Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

What is even happening?

IIRC, it's on Broadway. But I don't know anyone who was born there, nor even whether they have a Maternity unit.
My dh was born there. I have no idea if they still have a materinity unit, though.

I think the name of my hospital's street might well be Hospital Hill, which well. Just no.

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

Good, in that prepared for shit-to-go-down way?

Well, it seems you'd have no waiting -- but that's a lot of emptiness.

Two things I must note:

  • My computer is very slow
  • Announcing you have a new catchphrase and including the etymology when no one asked is LAME.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Well, it seems you'd have no waiting -- but that's a lot of emptiness.

In his novel Crash J.G. Ballard talks about the many many empty beds at the airport hospital, all basically waiting for a major disaster.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I'm Pretty Boy Vogler. Huh. Or Snooky Vogler.

Is it just me or does this sound like a hobbit porn name?

Did anyone watch 24 last night?

Dh knew Erin's daughter was going to off herself. I figured she was just slipping free, and going to wreak havoc in CTU, before being shipped off to a private hospital. I felt so bad for Erin, and I don't even like Erin. Curtis turned out to be more than a computer geek. I loved it. Dinah is a liar pants, but we knew that. I'm so glad Tony has been around. I wish they'd bring Michelle back, too.

I had a vague notion of the hospital's name, but Google suggests the vague notion is wrong.

Me too. It annoyed me enough that I felt compelled to call my mother and ask her.

I'm sorry but Main Street does not lend itself to a fun name. I'll stick with India, thanks.

Do hobbits have porn? I thought they just smoked pipeweed and fumbled in their breeches.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Cindy, I thought the same thing you did about Erin's daughter, and so I was really shocked by the ending.

Still loving this season.

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

LJ, I'm listening to U2 on my iPod AIFG!

My porn name would be Cutie Panza if I took the house route. Cutie North 21st Street if I had to use the hospital street. By futzing around with it a bit, I could be Reggie Elmcroft, Lucky Elmcroft, or Coco Elmcroft. I think I shall stick to my day job.

Have you been on the internet?

24 is weirding me out this season. I'm finding it more exciting, on average, but it's dramatically cavalier towards torture. We've had, what, three innocents tortured so far, with nothing revealed that needed torture, and two of the victims are working cheek by jowl with their torturers. Is this how Abu Ghraib should have gone down?
