I loved, "Elephants aren't purple. This isn't right."

My mom was one of those, "Don't talk in baby talk" people. Enough so that I didn't like one of my first friends in daycare because she "Didn't talk right."

Any child Bones had a hand in raising would be correcting the kindergarten teacher on the first day.

t raising hand "My Aunt Temperance says they're phalanges, not fingers."

sumi, good grief. Dourdan has some demons.

I had to be interviewed in order to start pre-k at the private school where my dad coached, because I was too young (late birthday).

I'm told the interviewer asked, "Where does the sun set?" To which I rolled my eyes and explained that the sun never actually set because the Earth revolved around it so there was always sun somewhere.

Loving the Amber-Wilson-House-Cutty custody situation. I loved the way Cuddy used the situation to her advantage to get the perf reviews done, then the punishment. Cuddy never, or rarely, misses a beat with all the weird things House brings into her office.

Foreman can really rock a suit. I swear, I don't usually notice clothes!

It was great to see Chase and Cameron and I liked the way the camera moved out of House's office, to the bowling alley, to Cameron hanging out with the newbies. Nice.

Aw, man, re Gary Dourdan. Hope he gets into rehab or whatever, doesn't end up ODing.

I like how they show that she does care about people, just not the way others think she should.

One thing that's been constant through the series is Brennan's empathy with children who've lost their parents.

I liked how they had her react properly to the idea of taking Andy to CPS without hitting us over the head with "She was a foster kid, she hates the system!" They don't always handle that with the kind of delicacy they showed last night.

In today's Salon: Long before there was "Law and Order," a TV criminal defense attorney named Perry Mason brought high courtroom drama to the masses. [link] ... Watching them, you may be surprised at how gore-free they are -- virtually every murder takes place off-screen -- and how unafraid the writers were of boring us with complicated points of law. But there's a larger and subtler surprise: A show conceived in the Eisenhower era is, for all intents and purposes, a harbinger of 1960s counterculture, the kind of anti-law enforcement, pro-Bill of Rights template that Abbie Hoffman might have scripted.

I just saw Bones. Since Ellie was born, I always have such a hard time with shows with kids in them. I spend the whole time thinking about how the child's life will be totally screwed up and so on and get depressed about it. Still, I liked watching how each of the characters interacted with baby Andy.

On a much shallower note, Frisco has the same little bear outfit that Andy was wearing. We are so trendy.

Does he also have a purple elephant? Because that's wrong.
