Hey brenda, how did your insane weekend go?

The hivemind is so useful. Thanks to Lee, and everyone else who weighed in on the garlic prawns issue.

Erika, I think the letter was imortant because it means they are starting to feel like an honest to goddam community who are pulling together to prevent the high-and-mighty cocksucker Hearst from ruining that. Also, I think of the current powers that be are getting a taste of what it feels like to be treated as less than trash by someone more powerful, and aren't necessarily reacting the way they thought they would to that situation. I suspect, given the historical details concerning Hearst, that victory over him may be achieved, but not on the usual terms for Deadwood (the town or the show).

I'm not sure that makes any sense. Plus, I'm speaking from the ignorant perspective of someone who's only seen a random handfull of the first two seasons.

In that case, bring it on!
