Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Kat, did you (or the rest of the wedding people) perhaps do a whole lot of drugs today? That is ... weird.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Kat's story is the best!

ETA:

Edit: Also, CBS2 is still showing Univision! You'd think someone would have noticed by now, and at least put a crawl across the bottom or something.

ABC has Ugly Betty, NBC has Fugly Betsy, CBS is trying their best.

Venture Bros: "Hey look, I'm in the Residents!" And Bowie's "I know when to go out." It's sad that they couldn't actually get Bowie, though. And after the Major Tom riff in season 1, too. Tsk.

Though, while plenty fun, it seemed less completely demented than usual. I shall assume that means the finale next week will be twice as demented, just to balance things out.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

If you're out with friends and a guy approaches you and compliments the women you're with, and then said "But that one looks kind of mean" when do you tell 'that one'?

a)As soon as you get back to your table
b)Once you're clear of the guy
c)Next time you see them
d)Randomly eight months later, and you've seen more than weekly in those eight months

Not a hard question, is it?

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

Venture Bros.: Too bad they couldn't get Bowie. But someone did a good job immitating his voice....

Shit's all sorts of different now.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

The best part on the Venture Bros. aside from Hank bonding with the henchman over action figures. I was thinking of Ple when Hank was being advised to grow a goatee so he'd look like Green Arrow. was having Klaus Nomi and Iggy Pop as Bowie's bodyguards.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I just caught up after some heavy duty skimming. Whew.

And now I should go sleep.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

ABC has Ugly Betty, NBC has Fugly Betsy, CBS is trying their best.
