Plus Michael Cudlitz,
yeah, but the HRT guy is such a flaming asshole. His character could be just as effective without being a jerk. I don't want him to be a one note character, all cowboy and no cattle , you know?
And you're sure this isn't just some fanboy thing? 'Cause I've fought more than a couple pimply, overweight vamps that called themselves Lestat.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Fuck. Premieres of new shows. I keep forgetting. I wish that was because I had a life, or something.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I've had 9/21 marked in my planner for a long time. Then I found out CSI is on at the same time and I had a wicked tantrum at work today.

My TiVo's already full. I think the full and fun summer sessions are to blame for me not thirsting for new things to add to my season passes. Of course I want to watch SpyDaddy and Gina Torres. But I just finished The 4400 and Dead Zone, and there's still the finale of Closer to watch. Meanwhile, Eureka's going strong.
No thirst.

Ah, sorry. In head I had a coherent point, which on review I didn't express very clearly, and then confusion reigned. Really, I'm just saying that to me it's more of a "once-notorious" case than something everyone today would recognize. I do suspect that slightly more people would recognize "Zodiac Killer," if only because it's more recent.
At least, I think that was my point. Lord knows.
Tonight's lesson is, I shouldn't rewrite my posts so much. Especially when it's late.

I don't think I've ever heard of the Zodiac Killer, but I came at this all bass ackwards. But assuming more people have heard of him/her, it's separate for me, since it's about the killer and not the killed.
I think.

Jack the Ripper is notorious--I bet many people who've heard of him couldn't tell you how many people he killed, or what the profession was.
People would know Jack the Ripper killed someone but not know it was a bunch of prostitutes? That would surprise me.

Now tagless for your comfort.
OK, here's a question: In the ads for the Black Dahlia movie, they keep qualifying everything with "in California history." What more notorious unsolved murder is there elsewhere in the country?
My own choice has Hollywood ties--Bob Crane's murder. More sex, less noir.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
There was a goofy book a few years ago that claimed that Orson Welles was the Black Dahlia killer. He apparently was acquainted with the victim, and he had this fascination with stage magic; hence the sawing in half .

What is even happening?

I was thinking about that while catching up with the thread, Cashmere.

The Black Dahlia is a sled?
