Thanks Cindy. That's a surname that's new to me. Well, five-years-old new-to-me. Er.
Anya, the Shopkeepers of America called. They wanted me to tell you that 'please go' just got replaced with 'have a nice day.'

I was hoping that The Outsider would be available on Netflix's Watch Now thing but it's not.
For those of you haven't tried Watch Now, if you have high speed internet it's great. So far I've watched a few things that I don't mind seeing on my computer (tv shows) and wasn't sure I wanted to waste my queue space on them. The picture quality is just like watching any file I already have.
You get the number of hours equal to how much you pay - so if you are paying $17.99 you get 18 hours.

Art Crawl!!!
GG: So at first I was not aware of anything wrong but then I was like, hey - she's graduating from Yale why is she at Chilton? And I realized it was a dream. (Watching the GG Marathon on Sunday is no doubt why it took me a moment to realize the weirdness.)

This stalkery shit is making me not like Chase. I know it's small potatoes on this show, but that is harrassment, and of the "nice guy" kind that drives me batshit.

GG: I really don't know why I didn't expect Lorelai to sing . . . and it could have been much, much worse. Did Zack give up the tour? (I was imagining a turn of events in which Lane stays in Star's Hollow and works at her old job - but whatever.)

No, he's going on the tour without her. And thank God, because I hate him.

I haven't seen the Watch This feature. Of course, I have crappy, crappy, dialup, but I'm planning on upgrading that soon.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Numb3rs-- you know, episodes like this are a huge part of why I watch the show. (The other parts are the Eppes family, who remain awesome.) First, you have death-row guy giving a fantastic, almost virtuoso performance--the moment when he gently takes his daughter's hand and puts his head down in his arms, shaking, was so... so *good.*
Then you have Larry, (yay!) come back from his amazing experience fundamentally changed, and so scared of losing that change; and his best friend trying but incapable of understanding, yet still there for him with whatever he needs. That exchange on the beach was just phenomenal.
There are just these moment of sheer intense quality on an otherwise good MOTW show, and they are so worth waiting for.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
That's a good summary of why I watch Numb3rs, SA. The stories can be formulaic, but the characters are wonderful.
