'Same Time, Same Place'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I'm glad someone not me put in the effort to figure out the Munch personal history. It's been bugging me, but not enough to actually do all that work.
I spent a substantial portion of this week's Bones wondering if Angela's father is Hank Hill's cousin. The idea amuses me.
Thinking of Vegas just makes me... well, more tired if that can be believed.
I'm going to forget shoes or something. Bleh. Whatever.
Most of the Republican candidates for president support torture.
And they all support Jack Bauer.
Torture intel is worse than no intel at all, according to a friend of mine who worked with Navy Intelligence. That's how you get the idea that there are WMDs hidden all over Iraq, because you keep torturing the guys until they tell you so.
And they all support Jack Bauer.
Let's just cut the middleman and have Jack Bauer run for prez! A fully fictional character is the next logical step anyway.

Well, usually you have the idea first, and you use the torture to support your hypothesis.

The idea came to Donald Rumsfeld when he was checking some old invoices to Saddam Hussein from the 1980s.
Bush II: From the People Who Brought You Iran-Contra
Huh. Laura Bush on my TV and so far not making me cringe or roll my eyes. Pushing for HPV vaccine, and pointing out that mandating vaccines is nothing unusual in this country. Then talking about her own fitness regime, where she notes that she has a personal trainer. And immediately points out that it's an incredible luxury. I didn't know there were Bushes capable of recognizing that sort of thing.
Still not over the whole returning the book to the independent bookstore thing, but okay.
I think Laura Bush is probably a nice lady, in truth.
On last night's What Not To Wear, they just threw away a skirt I own. Oops. They didn't make a big deal about it specifically, but STILL.
I fully intend to vaccinate my daughter for HPV. I really can't imagine not doing so. I don't think it should be mandated, though. I think mandating innoculation against diseases like Measles, Mumps, Rubella, Varicella, etc. -- ones you can contract with casual exposure is one thing. I think mandating it for diseases you can only get through more intimate exposure is an infringement on people's rights.
