You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Either the writers don't know how wrong they are OR they think that the viewers won't believe it.

I'm guessing the former, but I'd be surprised to learn that Lorraine Bracco hasn't tried to correct them.

Do a lot of people put ketchup on pasta? Of any ethnicity?

I once knew an Australian woman who did. To be fair, she was... extremely odd. I should hate to generalize from her.

Always Anti-fascist!

White-bread cheap spaghetti can be made by thickening up ketchup...I think my German grandma did it once or twice, but an Italian person? Is gagging somewhere cause I typed that, much less ate it. They take, ime, sauce(or gravy...don't think that wasn't confusing) very seriously. I'm reminded of the roomful of Harvard dropout writers they draw on the Simpsons sometimes.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Even my non-Italian grandmother's story about the worst spaghetti ever (in the 50s!) doesn't involve ketchup. But I think it was just plain canned tomato sauce.

That said, there were some Italian in-laws in the family.

What goes on hamburgers and hot dogs?

Well, mustard, pickles, and onions in the home I was brought up in. But we're English/Irish/Scottish/hillbilly, not Italian. (And my mom did make spaghetti with ketchup and bacon. I never much liked the stuff until I started eating in Italian restaurants.)

the single mom allows an unseemly man to take from her the one thing she has long and proudly maintained: control.

Wow, that (from the article) strikes me as wrong in so many ways. She chose to do it. She gained control by sleeping with that creepy dude -- control at work (voting partnership + belief that she "got them" Jaguar), control at home (money).

That sentence also struck me as completely wrong. I'm with you on why Joan did it.

We hope she has gained control. CH knows more about the script than I do. I hope all this bullshit wasn't for naught.

I do not use ketchup at all. Not on burgers, not on hotdogs. I do not like it.
