Congratulations to the class of 1999. You all proved more or less adequate.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I wonder if we will see Joan go through a version of the transformation that Peggy has gone through.

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

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

She had that little glimpse of what she could do when she was reading scripts. it would be a little surprising if another opportunity opened up for her, but it would make me happy.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

I think Joan is likely to become more and more anti-feminist. A strong thread in this show is the building of the America that supported Nixon.

Huh. I'm the other way. Joan's like a lot of women managers I worked for in the eighties who started as secretaries in the sixties. She's smart and competent and will have some feminist consciousness raising, but will always have some conflicted feelings about her worth being tied to her sexual desirability.

I think in the real world you are right. But I'm guessing that is the way the show will go.

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

So I was watching "The Closer" last night an around the 45 minute mark I wondered: "do they have the balls to off nearly the entire team and make this the series ender?" I really thought for a second they were going to go out like that.

They didn't, and I found the ending to be a little weak, but I sure did perk up there for a minute.

Heh. I think if they were going to do that FBI Hubbie would have been there. And the kitten.

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

well, that's a difficult question to answer, seeing as the show focuses on "major crimes."

I know what you meant by the question, but I am deliberately being obtuse.
