There's the whole "Who loves you, baby?" charisma thing.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You know, I never thought of Savalas!Kojak as charismatic. But I was wee then, and prone to crushing on motorcycle cops and guys who drove cars that talked. Okay, just warming up for the talking car.
So far Ving is charismatic, if we can characterise charisma as having a large component of "I could be killing you, but I'm not -- aren't I nice?"

Savalas!Kojak as charismatic
Watching it as a teenager? Loads of charisma. It's the bald head, it's hypnotizing. I won't even tell you of the fantasies involved with bald heads.

Yes, TBJ is Trial by Jury. I liked it at first, but really like Numb3rs better. I need my tv life less rather than more complicated.

What is even happening?
sumi!
What did you think of JoA, last night? I hope the series gets at least another season. * I want to see how this plays out. *

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Me, too, Cindy! I'm dyin' to know. (okay, not really dying, but you get the idea)

Cindy -- that's exactly how I felt! They really set up something good for next season. . . if it happens. Oh, and when she was talking to (I think) Ghost!Judith at the high school and she (the ghost) walks through the trophy case and Joan winds up talking to the Trophy Case, I immediately thought about Elizabeth Madison (Amy's Mom).

The evil is this way?
My VCR decided not to tape "Joan of Arcadia" last night. I suspect that it is in league with the devil.

So I did manage to go to the buy-in-baltimore place today. And they were very helpful, if swamped, so I didn't get to meet with the lender guy or agent, but the manager gave me some new neighborhood info. And she's my age and "style" and recently bought her first home so I didn't get all heebiejeebies. And I helped her talk up Hampden for a couple who could afford it. So that was cool. There's a crash-course/networking thing tuesday night that I hope to go to. And there is a thing in May for the westside (if you find and close on something something like 90 days post attendence, this grant throws the first 50 buyers $3k ) which isn't of as much interest to me but you never know.
Anyway, it was all very interesting and
AM I FUCKING NUTS?!!!GOODGOD.
Yeah, so. Hair trimmed and I need to put together a grocery list and go do that. Then at least one load of spring cleaning laundry.
