Slate magazine just redesigned, and it kind of sucks. A little nicer to read, but a lot harder to navigate.

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.
Diane Farr was about the best thing about "The Job".(Sorry, Denis, but it's true.)
I loved her as Maria's mom on Roswell. I mostly enjoyed her on Rescue Me -- I wish she hadn't left so abruptly because I think that the Laura/Franco storyline would have been interesting to watch playout. I mean, look at this season -- would they have been yet another example of relationships spinning out of control -- or would they have been the sole relationship to be stable out of the lot?
Oh, yeah. Loved Laura/ Franco. Still miss her on there.
Rescue Me is getting a bit much with everyone being so freaking socially incapable. I agree with those that suspect Sarandon's trouble--perhaps baby-stealing trouble. I'd like a bit more variety. But Leary's so charismatic, despite what his character may be doing, so I keep watching.
wrod, ita. I don't really like wondering "Is that rape or really angry fucking?"but I think I'm invested now, in any event.
Here is an interview with Peter Tolan and Denis Leary regarding current storylines (and possible upcoming storylines) on Rescue Me.
Jesse,
Thanks for reminding me how much I love clafouti and giving me an idea of what to do with the 2lbs of blueberries I bought this weekend! Of course, my aunts may disown me if they hear of me making clafouti with blueberries, but I think it sounds yum. (This is a family that argues about whether or not you pit the cherries for a "real" clafouti.)
Wait. You would NOT pit the cherries? Seriously?? (Just don't call it clafouti with blueberries, if need be.)
OK, so the proactive measures to protect my sheets? Didn't get tested. Poor Devi spent the night shut in the closet. I didn't even know she was in there. She must have gone in during the worst of the thunder and since I always make sure it is shut before I go to bed....
Poor kitty. She wasn't too happy, since it looked like she knocked the laundry basket down on herself and it literally scared the shit out of her. Uhg.
Of course, now I keep thinking I smell cat piss everywhere, which isn't actually possible since nothing I am wearing was actually in the closet.
