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

I turned to DH about halfway through and asked if the actor had been cast in a pilot because there's no way Lane is not getting fired and/or deported.

I know, right? Damn.

How much did cars cost back then?

An Oldsmobile Cutlass had a base price of $3500, so $6K was a lot. [link]

Because books.

What year is it? Because in some NJ suburbs, commutable to NY, 3-4 bedroom houses were going for under $30K in the late 60s. (In the town I'm thinking of, most of the older Victorians were going for average $750,000 the last time I looked. In what? Just around forty years.)

I'm five years old! I have actual memories of '66. Indeed the xmas of '66 holds some of my earliest memories.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I'm still waiting quietly in my mom's ovaries, but I expect to be conceived by the season finale.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
