Also on Alias, I really love how everyone is in that grey area of lying to people. That they are all in that place where Syd was Season 1. AND the train station to think, just like before. Love. when he shows up and they dance. It's so... sweet. Good episode.

Also, did anyone catch Clive Owen on Charlie Rose?

Did other people (besides Nicole, who said she was half watching) watch?

I watched and enjoyed it. I'll probably watch it again if I can stay awake. I enjoyed Tim Daly's character a lot. The plot was twisty without being asspully and WTF?

The kids were a more-intense sort of love in a completely different vein.

Beverly speaks for me. My love for the hubby is very different than my love for the kids.

ita, there's still a long wait for a Prius. One of hubby's co-workers had to wait 4 months for his but he's full on in love with it now. Me? I'd like a fuel-cell SUV that will hold kids, dogs and bikes, please.

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 supposed to be on the radio to talk about the LOST party. If anyone cares to listen to me make a jackass out of myself.

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

Did other people (besides Nicole, who said she was half watching) watch?

As JZ notes, it was sitting there TiVoing away after Lost. It was well crafted and had an excellent light touch / roguish quality. They hammered on the various character/plot moments just a wee bit to make all these new characters stand out.

"Hi, I'm the gay badass black private eye with a history of mental breakdown."

"And I TOTALLY got your back, man."

"I, however, am the supercompetent and utterly slippery guy with no moral code, yet am just barely endearing."

"You bastard - why did you make me love you?"

I'm drinking wine at my desk, which always feels ultradecadent. Because not only am I being paid to drink wine, the wine was free. So were the many delicious pot stickers and the huge bowl of fresh berries and fresh whipped cream. And a chocolate covered strawberry as big as a toddler's fist.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I watched Alias today, too, and I enjoyed it muchly.

"I've got a spork!"

I just about peed myself laughing. But I am strange with the spork love. Ask Gud.

Hee. It was a fun ep. But the wig in this episode looked like a dead matte cat draped on Syd's so-not-Latina head.

I forgot about Eyes. I'll try to catch it next week.

I ususally change to sweats or pjs something in that vein when I come home, and then I strip them off to go to bed. I'll stay in them on weekends until I have a compelling reason to change. (Dog walking and coffee shop don't count - I'll do those in pj's, no prob.)

I find her PoV thought-provoking, but am not comfortable with the urgency with which she reveals what she admits are fleeting thoughts and half-truths to the world, including her kids.

We actually agree here, but I'm finding the virulence of the reaction more discomforting than I do her columns (the few I've read).
