Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I thought that was hysterical too. A classic "They are NOT going there, are they? Yes. Yes they are." moment.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

This is almost breathtaking: the inspiration for Omar is going to marry the real-life Fran Boyd from The Corner: [link]

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

Aw...that's romantic as a motherfucker. Go them! Much better than finding out Miss Ella Thompson died of a heart attack.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

That's freaky cause I just reread The Corner this week. Baltimore hivemind hollaback. (Someday they are going to find me broken, alone, speaking some unintelligible patois full of things like "Foamy...that's some *bullshit* and "Salad shooters,"Please claim my ass before government researchers do...kthxbye.) Dag. Did it again.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

JfC: I'm at ep 7, I think. I kinda love Kai. And love that she loves Butchie, even though he clearly doesn't deserve it. This really is a pretty hopeful show. I mean, they've all got a road to redemption, if you will. And, it seems like the kind of show where at least most of them just might stay on it, more or less.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

All out of Deadwood. Fuck.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

I know! Really didn't expect to miss it so much, since I got dragged kicking and screaming, like a whore with her monthly, to watch it in the first place. But I do. Even Swergin.(compelling cocksucker that he is and fuckin' show-stealer too. The other actors must hate him sometimes, though I think they really like McShane lots) But especially Jane, Trixie, and the Doc are my favorites.
