Marlo Stanfield: Check it...me and the man from Wisconsin are being all McCluhan-y and shit. Separated by time and space and about every fucking variable in the world. That's tight, huh? (My mother hates it when I get going like that. But it's hard to stop after hearing for an hour. It's contagious. Mos Def.)

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
That is what I am saying. The Wire wakes up your language centers.
I watched this one, then told the DVR to do it again. I do not do that.

It's great to see Prez finally exert a little authority, even though he gives himself away all the time.
So, here's my unspoiled speculation: Naimond is the only one of the core kids who's going to go into Bunny's program. Dukie is too pathetic, Michael has too much promise, and Randy is clearly not a corner boy. I think one of them is going to die this season, but could see arguments for and against each at this point.
Really nice to see Rawls play both sides, too. Obviously, he meant what he said to Carcetti, but he's still going to come out on top even if Royce wins. Which isn't very likely.

Carcetti will be the next Mayor. That is a given.
Dukie is completely smart. Let us just call him Stringer, Junior.
Bunny's program: Dude, it is a government program. After producing a few statistics, it will wither and die.

I sort of hate Carcetti. But it's not like I feel better about the other pols. (maybe Clay Davis, for being entertaining to watch) And I feel for Tony Gray, whom Carcetti completely *fucked* last year on the city council.

Fave line from last night's Deadwood, as delivered by Jane:
And you're looking at the ass of a drunken shitbird!

Aw. Hell no. Except I can't type how many syllables a Clay Davis "Hell, no" actually takes. Many. But you can almost understand how his rap works. Almost. I'm enjoying watching that actor develop as his part gets bigger.

"Shitbird" isn't an epithet I've heard much in real life, but it excels as such on Deadwood and The Wire.
Except I can't type how many syllables a Clay Davis "Hell, no" actually takes.
There's a line in one of Li'l Sphere's Dr. Seuss books that first describes what thunder sounds like, then describes what lightning sounds like. Clay Davis's "Hell, no" sounds like lightning.

"Blue" too.(I'm hearing it in Franz's Midwestern voice, right now, and it's...just not completely unexpected, is all.) I expect it has a special place in Milch's heart.ETA: cool description, Corwood. Actually, Davis probably started out quite a guy, once. Just very much a product of the old-school, smoky backroom kind of politics.
