Oh, and on ALIAS, much as I enjoy seeing Amy Acker be all badass with the machine guns, given past history of how Sloane deals with business associates, wouldn't the ultra-seekrit, sooper-duper-powerful crime syndicate check for weapons, especially if Sloane a) called the meeting and b) then sent a minion in his place? I know, I know, it's ALIAS, but that was beyond the call of stupidity.
These are stone killers, little man. They ain't cuddly like me.

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.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Bleargh. Am back from F2F. Have skipped 500+ posts.
Have read whitefont. Have not watched shows. Am spoiled! Whee!!!
When come back, bring pronouns.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ah, but Frank, you underestimate the super duper magic briefcase the weapons were in!
I'm sitting here doing some cleaning out of my computer -- emails and stuff. I should be cleaning out my apartment, but both things have to get done eventually, right?

Re 24 - please, please, PLEASE let Fury stay onboard 24, because I know he won't pass up the opportunity to use a helicoptor to take out Paul McCrane when the time comes, and you know it will.

What is even happening?
24
Frank, who is Paul McCrane?
sumi, you think not!Romano is working for the Chinese? I never got that impression. I thought Logan was backed by some sort of hyper-neocon group of American puppet masters who were for a much stronger defense, etc. and were trying to make America look more at risk than it is. That said, I do think Logan et al are the ones who let the Chinese know where Jack was going to be. In that sense, I do think they cooperated with the Chinese, to get Jack out of the picture.

There are people talking about their personal experiences with nailgun accidents in the hall. They are IT staff.
There may be a lesson in there somewhere.

Cindy -- even if Not!Romano isn't a lackey of the Chinese -- he's certainly forwarding their agenda. Why else was Jack Bauer on the hit list? Did you think that was coincidental? (Always a possibility.)
Frank! Yes! It would be so right if Not!Romano were killed by a falling black helicopter.

Me neither, Nora. But sad to say, I was actually looking forward to going to work this morning because it meant being able to avoid calls from annoying people in my co-op.

I'm with Cindy RE: the Chinese. Who is Not!Romano?
