Has Ray Bradbury ever used anything harsher than "hell" or "damn"?
I think he's used the phrase "Martian cocksucker" a few times.
Yeah... That went well.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I always (well, since adulthood, anyway) thought that dangling balls were symbolically what fuzzy dice were all about....

Just swaying and dangling, an enormous pair, complete with droopy sack.
Here in the heartland, it's common to color coordinate these with your truck.

I always thought that fuzzy dice meant that you take chances, dance with death, etc. Or you're nostalgic for the '50s.

It would be funny to have a set with "Stephen" on one and "Colbert" on the other.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I haven't seen last week's CSI yet. Is there anything I need to know before this week's?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Lee, the Catherine subplot has been resolved, and it was the lover of the guy who commited suicide in #1, trying to get back at her dad, who he blamed for him losing tons of money. Looks like he killed her dad too. As for the other subplot--the stupid miniature one, they don't yet know who killed Danny Bonaduce.

Kubrick Was Dispondent Over 'Eyes' Before His Death, Says Actor
R. Lee Ermey, the actor who played the menacing drill instructor in Stanley Kubrick's Full Metal Jacket (1987), says that two weeks before his death, Kubrick phoned him to express his dispondency over Eyes Wide Shut, starring Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman, which reportedly had taken longer than any film in history to film and which was only in a rough-cut state. "He told me it was a piece of s**t," Ermey said in an interview with the online Radar magazine, "and that he was disgusted with it and that the critics were going to have him for lunch. He said Cruise and Kidman had their way with him -- exactly the words he used." Ermey did not explain what he thought Kubrick may have meant by the expression, except to remark, "He was kind of a shy little timid guy. He wasn't real forceful. That's why he didn't appreciate working with big, high-powered actors. ... He would lose control."
Dude. I don't even care what the content is. I just skimmed in far enough to see...and yes. They misspell "despondent" not once, but twice.
