The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

South Dakota.

You can find out more about the real Deadwood easily on the internets. But don't if you don't want to get spoiled! Almost all of the characters were real people or closely based on real people.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

Deadwood's in North Dakota.

DCP's right. It's SD, cocksucker.

How the hell was that claim deal with Tim Driscoll supposed to work? I got that Mr. Posh thought he scammed everyone else when in fact they were all scamming him somehow, but I don't understand why Al was so mad they took more of his money.

Al's going for the long con. He didn't want to give anything away too soon. Also, he hates it when Farnum disobeys him.

I didn't really understand the end scene with Trixie and the gun. Why'd she take it in the first place? Was it some sort of gesture of surrender, like, "Okay, Mr. Swearengen, I'll never doubt you again"?

I don't remember the specifics, but I guarantee that's not what she's thinking.

there's Jim Beaver too!

He may have fucked up his life flatter than hammered shit, but he stands before you today beholden to no human cocksucker. Incidentally, should I die in the near future, please inform my wife that this is my desired epitaph.

Ok, Corwood, bunk. But if I go first, you gotta set up the pool table, the Pogues, and the puking in the gutter. K? "Finished talking about the Wire..." dude, we're Buffistas. We never *finish* talking about *dick*(and the slashers never stop with that either, and I know you feel me on that!) But anyway, I saw Ian Mcshane on a commercial yesterday and really wanted to yell "Swergin!" but Mom wouldn't get it. Deadwood grossed her out. The Wire is different every year. It's all connected, but you don't *really* need every connection to enjoy the seasons. Simon would bitch at me for saying that, but I would just say "Look! That girl who faked her memoir!" and roll away very fast. The enjoyment is enhanced by continued watching, but they are separate stories. Not to mention, so detailly that getting spoiled would take, well, really long.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I never thought of Doc as rotund.

I haven't figured out everyone's name yet. He has a roundish face, though.

Al's going for the long con. He didn't want to give anything away too soon. Also, he hates it when Farnum disobeys him.

Hm. I see.

I always thought Alma had an instinct for hardball, (not the Chris Matthews kind) considering her addiction and, um, what she would probably call her "station in life". I suspect things had always been tougher for her than they looked.

HAH! I was reading this as the Alma from the Wire and was, like, "Wha huh? Did I miss an episode?"

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

I watched Brokeback Mountain 4 times this weekend. Who knew there were so many Almas?
