Aw, man he was a genius. And he won't ever drink fruit punch ever again.ETA: Bop Gun was in my Top Five H:LOTS, even if it did convince Robin Williams he could be a serious actor and therefore lay much plague upon the land...it also contained some great Howard moments so I think it rocks, just for being so non-gendered in its depiction of those issues. And it was very human in its refusal to pick and name a bad guy, even though Vaughn did a terrible thing.
Wesley: And how does your kind define love? Demon: Same as all bodies. Same as everywheres. Love is sacrifice.

Can't read the Simon piece right now, because when he gets elegiac(sp?) he can make me cry like a little girl, and we're not talking Broadcast News/pollution Indian single tears, either. It's really ugly. Maybe after five?ETA: Too late. Sniff. But I'm still coherent because Simon was source, not commentator. ETA2: This is really fucking stupid, but I had *no idea* Mills was black. I guess I never saw him, and his name being David instead of, say, Antoine or Terence, made me think "Oh, Jewish ex-journalist"(Not that there's anything wrong with that...he would have matched the other guys in the Pantheon of Daves if he were.) Way to be Part of the Problem, Erika. D'oh.

Erika - do you have a Treme source? Do you need one? I'm going to be DVRing it, and I can put it on a DVD.
