Yes. Men like sports. Men watch the action movie, they eat of the beef, and enjoy to look at the bosoms. A thousand years of avenging our wrongs and that's all you've learned?

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

And Elizabeth Ashley has just been a joy this year. Why she never had more of a film career (unless it was her choice) is a total mystery to me.

Did I miss something, though? Why did Melissa Leo give David Morse the total arctic winter there at the end?

Art Crawl!!!

Did she blame him for what happened when she was presenting her case to the FBI?

Was that the end of the series? Because it really seemed like it could be, you know?

I think they might have filmed it with that in mind, but I heard they go picked up for another season.

Yeah, there's going to be a season 3. Toni knows he's in on the coverup, somehow.(I would have to watch again to be sure about how...you know Simon with the jargon and shit.) I wish I had an aunt like Davis'.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I am still on season one, and I am really liking it. The stuff I read seems to indicate that people don't like Davis, but I find him hysterical. I might find him annoying if I knew him.

Do musicians really play so many gigs (well) with no rehearsal? Or is it just because they all know each other so well?

I think they relate to him too much and think that Blown Deadline must be taking the piss or something. I think it's a small scene and they might have standards that everyone knows.

I think that the idea is that they're really good musicians playing in familiar genres.

Haven't seen last night's ep yet, but I'm getting there as soon as I finish my Avatar write-up.

Jazz musicians are extremely accustomed to jamming-- you get the chord changes going and then just improvise. It's beautiful.
