Dear lord. I just played with some more of the careers. Database administrator is higher class than systems analyst? Obviously I think system analysis is easier, because I do it, but I'm surprised at that.

he has them left over from his episode last summer

Are they still good?

And do you already know the diagnosis, and that there's no treatment? What's wrong with the poor guy?

I wonder why Alexis continues to do Gilmore Girls, when she has a promising movie career that doesn't involve memorizing 500 pages of dialogue per week.

They really should be. Drugs don't actually expire as soon as the Rx label would have you think.

Oh good. Because I've never thrown any out for passing the sell by.

It has been explicitly stated in the show that the Araz family is Muslim.

The 24 website, in describing Marwan's organization, explicitly references Al Qaeda as a model.

He's having muscle spasms in his lower back. We had one of those weekends. He worked over night, for a total of about 18 hours from Thursday night to Friday morning, which helped nothing. Then Saturday, he was at Ben's game, and stood the whole time. That afternoon, he spent bent over, putting together a basketball hoop, for Ben. Saturday is also the day Julia scratched her cornea. He took her to the E.R. around 8ish on Saturday night, and they were there until 1:30, Sunday morning. While there, she kept wanting to go up on some little platform, and he would lift her, and take her off. He carried her in, and up the stairs (outside and in) when they got home. He knew he was hurting Sunday morning, but it just got progressively worse.

The expiration date on the muscle relaxers isn't until August. They do seem to work, although they are slower to work than he'd like. I think part of the problem yesterday was that he didn't keep up on them and the Ibuprofen, and waited too long to take them.

I find your second point more convincing than the first (just because they are something doesn't mean that's what's the driver). I just don't get the aversion to being clear in the show.

So which one is higher class: a poor person who like opera or a rich person who likes midget mud wrestling?

Being a poor person currently wearing a Utah Opera t-shirt, I'm voting for the first one. (My god, was it 5 years ago I saw Tosca? Stupid lowest-common-denominator-scheduling fine arts board. I don't want to see the Utah Symphony doing Broadway show tunes!)

Well, lots of back-ma to Scott.
