Steve Earle's pretty big. And he's been to prison.
Lisa, I'm afraid he could take all four of you. Maybe you need more pointy guitars.
Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is…physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

Okay, seriously though, we are pretty freaking tough. The girls anyway (especially our drummer who is both freakishly strong and not fully in control of her strength. a dangerous combo!). Joey, our guitarist, may need to resort to using a pointy instrument.

But Earle has the power of an ex-con ex-junkie!

It's dawning on me that I would pay good money to watch this deathmatch.

FINALLY, a way to raise money using our talents. (Actually i think this deathmatch would turn out to be a total hugfest I mean, it's Steve Earle! So cuddly!)

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
Still making my way through Dexter - down to 5 episodes (I think - only one left on the second disc at any rate). Absolutely loving it. I already know the ending's probably going to be substantially different since they've diverged so far from the book, which isn't necessarily bad.
I did have one complaint about last night where I thought Dexter was sticking his neck way out 1) visiting the kid, especially since he was Doakes bust, and 2) going to see the "Ice-truck Killer" wannabe at all. I was also impressed with the doorway confrontation between Dexter and Rita's asshole ex just on a technical level: even knowing he wasn't going to get punched, it must be really difficult to act that without even blinking or flinching a little.

move out and draw fire
After finishing S1 of Deadwood, I have about 5 essays I want to write. One of them would be a breakdown of the closing shot of the final episode, with Bullock and Alma separate but together, above the muck and filth of the town. Another would be comparing Jane and Joanie - their childhoods and the wildly different paths both took, with a bit comparing Bill to Cy, and a discussion of the struggle for independence.
The tension between dependence and independence is really the throughline of the entire series, I think.

Always Anti-fascist!
Salon's got "Which is better--Sopranos or The Wire?" Lame, huh? But I gotta pick the Wire due to the lateness of mainstream respect, and because Emmy is apparently "a cheese-faced bitch." The Sopranos doesn't really need any more boosters, though "Pine Barrens" is a comedy classic.
