Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Challenger! Right. Well, I knew it was a Dodge, early '70s-late '60s.

I want the '76 Camaro RS I had twenty years ago. Automatic, believe it or not. Hit 70 and that girl would shift into a higher gear you didn't know she had, crouch down over the road and fly. Mm-hm.

Tully, can I drive your car? That last bit with him flying past everyone else, and that little smile at the end? Sex-ay.

I get the giggles at the thought of the "thug" Salazar bro growing up in his neighborhood with the name "Winston."

I used to have a '74 Chevy Nova. V8 engine that blew past eveything else on the road. The engine was as big as a kitchen table, and man, it ran hot. It was the kind of car that when I pulled into the gas station the teenage boys at the pumps would ask if they could lift the hood to look around. I loved the car, but eventually decided I wanted something with air conditioning.

Because books.

A Challenger was what Kurt Russell drove in the second half of Grindhouse -- I think. Awesome-looking muscle car.

Nathan Fillion has me now, for good. Oh dear.

Aw! I just Beth Grant on a first-season Friends, too -- as the homeless woman Phoebe gives her football phone and $1,000 to.

Maybe we should change the name of the a game to Six Degrees of Tim Minear.

My first car was a '60-something Thunderbird. Boy magnet.

Now I drive a little Chevy sedan that does 0-60 in about, oh, five minutes. Woe. I just don't know myself anymore.

I'm digging this show.

Someone has to say it:

"You wanna meet the real me now?"

I had the same flash, Zen. Right there with you.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Word. The How I Met Your Mother rerun from tonight is the one with Morena Baccarin and Tom Lenk.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I also love Wendy's sacchrine WHACKO. She's such a sweetheart. Until.

To me, she'll always be that little girl who helped Kate Winslet beat her mother to death with a brick wrapped in a picnic blanket.

I think I like the real Alex Tully, but I want him to be played by Viggo Mortensen. Can we have that please?

I was all ready to vote for Army Guy and Annoying Wife to have their car tragically burst into flames, but then they had their "I don't want you to die" moment and now I don't hate them anymore. Damnit.

Winston, were you in jail when The Matrix came out? The woman in the red dress is only ever there to distract you!

It was a woman in red who lured John Dillinger to his death. You'd think they'd learn.

Well, that is kind of ancient history.

Oh, and yeah, 24 is barely pulse raising after this show.
