Good point.
In other news, Jonathan Rhys Meyers is not Elvis.
Who was the real power? The Captain? or Tenille?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
DH: she DID go see a priest. I guess that was our passing nod to a woman who loudly doen't want to be a mother and has been boning two guys considering the perfectly legal decision to end a pregnancy. TV annoys me. I get that its a political hot potato. But they don't even CONSIDER it 99% of the time. t rolls eyes

OK, the former makes sense but the latter? Of course, you are looking forward to shopping which means you are a different creature than I.
I do like shopping a lot, but I did not find a dress. Well, I did find one dress that I liked, but it was $240, which I didn't like as much. And it didn't fit completely perfectly enough to justify the price. I found another dress that I was kind of okay about, and it was only $114, but still, you should be happy about the dress, and I would just not mind the second one. So, I have no new dress. I'm not sure where to check next, since I'm pretty sure I tried on every possible dress in the entire Beverly Center, and at The Grove. Darn it. And I still need shoes. Unless I want to wear boots or sneakers to graduation. And I don't really want to.
I'm so ungrammatical, and I just don't care.
On the plus side, my headache did go away.
Thanks, Hec. That was a very satisfactory Phil story. I especially enjoyed the parts about the love birds' matching wads of cash, for some reason. I thought it was cute. And I also liked the autograph part.

Jonathan Rhys Meyers is not Elvis.
No. He's not. I'm a big JRM fan, but still. No.

Exactly, Kat. Bend it like Beckham was on today too, and there, JRM=yum (as long as he isn't running). In Velvet Goldmine, also yum.
He is not, however, Elvis.

---- I think what I like best about this series of Dr. Who is that the bit players both die and save the Doctor and his companion. Who's still top dog, but not always the one on the white horse of action or decision. ===
Yeah but I'd be happier with that if someone besides women died.

Jonathan Rhys Meyers is not Elvis.
No, but he does a pretty good imitation of Bowie's Ziggy Stardust phase.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Gar: I think the kid in this last episode is fucked worse than the women who got to go out heroically (or not die at all, like the new PM).

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

Heh. It was kind of cute. They're oddly well matched. Though he has a proper gambler's roll bound up with rubber bands, and she has a proper actress' random scattering of bills in her purse and book.
I do need to note that until Phil entered her sphere she was not a cash and carry gal. But she kind of likes it now.

OK - I think the "last episode" you are talking about is one I will not see until Tuesday. So I'm glad that it was coincidence, not a pattern.
I think one problem I'm having was the first episodes was absolutely dead on perfect to me. And the second wasn't; but the world building, and especially one skinny minor character was so fabulous I did not care. And so while the others have been good my expectations are now unreasonable.
