Woe to the fucking wicked.

It so is, Frank. I finished that season last weekend. Loved it. And that is all I will say until you finish.

I loved that. Evocative, yet even-handed...if I ever do anything to get profiled for, I hope it's like that. Although I think he should give bottle-spinning chick a break already. Most guys don't look like much at twelve.

Yeah, I loved pretty much every second of that article. I should have said this earlier, but it's spoilerly as hell if you're not caught up.

Aw, man. That made me miss HBO. Dude...weird about Chris Albrecht, huh? I mean, I know the PSAs say "it crosses all demographic lines" but at the same time "HBO executive" and "Girlfriend assaulter" don't exactly seem to fit the same dossier. I suppose I remember his name because, during the crapzillion "Save The Wire" letters I wrote in '04, to make them look laid out properly, I used the Letter Writing Wizard and so my computer still "thinks" I owe Mr. Albrecht a letter from time to time.

I can't remember, but I think he's the guy who axed S4 of Deadwood before his shameful departure. Which certainly colors my opinion of the guy.

Well, yeah, he's a total Jarry. But still I wouldn't expect *that*.

Nobody's checking the vacants, right?
