The machine created a false identity that was male. So who knows if there is a particular gender to which the machine would like to be referred?
I was wondering if the writers had read The Moon is a Harsh Mistress.
No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
What a fantastic episode of Elementary that was! Great character stuff, fun case, sparkling dialog -- one of the best the show has done. And that letter at the end, oh my.

I expected Beckett to make a decision on where she wanted to be.
She kind of did. She didn't know she was making that choice but tipping off the press was more of a detective move than FBI, yeah?
I had been wondering why Castle didn't get a place in DC since she got the job, myself, so that was nice that he figured that out.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Yeah, other than the book tour why the heck wasn't Castle in DC?

I was glad that he fucked things up for her in DC because it showed that there were more issues than the geographic which, as noted, should have been a non- issue from the start.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I suspect we're going to get at least some of the post-proposal/pre-DC story in upcoming episodes.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
I've been watching "Vera" - English, based on books by Ann Cleeve. It stars Brenda Blethyn and I love hearing the northern-English (I think they're northern) accents. They're really well done, but so so SAD.

Vonnie, I really enjoyed this episode too. The not even veiled references to Anonymous, not withstanding.
I love the Victorian romance in Holmes' behavior...and his ingenuity. Especially, the free weights + bicycle rim + fireplace cooking. I doubt it would actually work, but I love the idea of it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm the anti-cross-poster what cross posts at midnight: Elementary and Sleepy Hollow writers twitter fight. Spoilery to the degree of photographs of antagonists of each series, and socks.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So many sparkly hearts!
