Well, we may not have parted on the best of terms. I realize certain words were exchanged. Also, certain... bullets. But that's air through the engine. It's past. We're business people.

That's as bad as Ron Glass's hair in that one episode of Firefly. It could send small children screaming.

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

It's good, for a wig. Bad, for hair.

Agreed. Rather impressed with it as a wig.

Also agreed.

Keep on walking, hacker man.

OMG. Why did no one warn me about the hair? Okay, fine, yes, I was warned.

<click. clicky click, click.>

OMG. Why did no one warn me about the hat? For reals, people! The hair cannot be contained by the hat.

Man, I love the Leverage blog [link] This was fun quote (among many) about the most recent episode (not tonight's):

We need them to be a little less the all-powerful super-team, or at the current rate of escalation the season ender would involve conning Galactus. ("The Slightly More Ultimate Nullifier Job.")

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Is that blog Kung Fu Monkey, or a different one?

Is anyone else watching HBO's In Treatment on DVD? OMG, it is SO addictive. So excellent. I haven't been this addicted to a show since Dexter or the Gilmore Girls. I mean, hurt my back from alertly watching for so long, unable to turn the tube off,, running around town to find the next DVD addicting.

I love the intimacy of it. Love the quiet camera that nonetheless gets different angles on the action of two people talking to each other, and that action can be really tense at times. Love the details, like the squeaking gate. Blair Underwood brings a whole new game to the show (IMO). I'm predisposed to dislike Melissa George's character ('cause of Alias; guess I'm shallow like that), but she acquits it well, actually. The interplay between Gabriel Byrne's Paul and Mia Wasikowska's Sophie, the teenage gymnast, is so heartrending, gripping in a positive view of therapy in action. Dianne Wiest is riveting. They all are. It's really good.

eta: didn't need to be said twice.
