Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

Speaking of Katrina, the Frontline/Pro Publica/Times-Picayune investigation is going to be on Frontline on August 25. That's some fucked up shit.

Oh, man.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

In lighter news, and I don't know why I just thought of this, but as bad as this season's BB has been, it might have the best BB line ever: "It's pronounced "neanderTAL!"

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

You are not wrong, Jesse.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I put together my Best-of-S7-SYTYCD dvd, and was disappointed to find out it didn't even go 90 minutes, and that was after I put in several guest appearances and a few decent-but-not-fantastic dances from earlier in the season.

Not surprised at who went home on Top Chef. He disrespected the protein. That's the kiss of death.

Because books.

But so has Andrea !

Ugh. She annoys the hell out of me.

The CIA dinner was interesting. None of the other CIA people looked at all amused when sPanetta got called away .

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I know right? I wonder what that was about.
