Damn, I was just thinking the same thing, only with our new DVD burner. Do you mind if I steal your thunder a bit, David?

Aw, you guys are truly the special kind of assholes. In a good way. It *will* be exciting to see why the mainstream television press is reminding me of fandom_wank. "This is a motherfucking kerfuffle, yo." But do the lurkers support Marimow in e-mail? This is my burning question.ETA: Sorry, I'm a bit one-note, but usually the only reason I want to slap anyone at the Atlantic Monthly is because I'm not in it. Today was a special day.

Did I post the upcoming Esquire article by Simon yet? If not: [link]

When the Phoenix Gazette closed, the guy that handled it was so crass as to be sexist with the editor, so for the whole last week the women staffers wore "Uppity Women Unite" t-shirts. I wish I had one.

Not in the least. Burn her some Wire post-haste.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I saw a minor spoiler for an upcoming episode that I almost want erika to see more than I want to see it.

McNulty: it occurred to me last night, his manufacturing evidence parallels what the speaker was talking about at Bubbles meeting - whatever you think you won't ever do, that's what you'll do for your demon. And his demon isn't drink, that's more of a symptom, his demon is giving a fuck when it ain't his turn to give a fuck.

That's a good call.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Yeah, I get that about McNulty. Though it is also a kind of moral pride which generally precedes a calamitous fall.

Even Landsman said he couldn't help it, he's "addicted to himself"

That felt like a goddamn Wire episode last night.
