Sometimes when I'm sitting in class... You know, I'm not thinking about class, 'cause that would never happen. I think about kissing you. And it's like everything stops. It's like, it's like freeze frame. Willow kissage.

There's actually been very little mention of Lecter. He gets brought up at one point by her DoJ-appointed therapist, but his name is never mentioned.

the ongoing plot thread seems to be about some kind of corporate conspiracy, with a thematic thread of "things are not as they seem".

Head's up, Justified fans. They're making another Elmore Leonard book into a tv series. According to the article:

The new series will feature Graham Yost, who created "Justified," as an executive producer, plus many other writers and producers from the previous show. Peter Leonard, the novelist's son, also will be an executive producer.

I love Elmore Leonard, but for me, the magic of Justified was Timothy Olyphant (and the chemistry with Walter Goggins). But, I will definitely give it a shot. Which book?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Timothy Olyphant and his sloungy ways, wicked wit, sexay eyes and long loooooooong legs. Not that I’m partial or anything.

What is even happening?

I believe it's City Primeval: High Noon in Detroit.

Yes.

The Deadline article on this says, "City Primeval does not feature [Raylan] but the idea is for the TV adaptation to incorporate him, with Olyphant potentially reprising his role."

I just hope they don't whitewash Detroit. It's majority minority, for goodness sake. And I've seen reality shows (travel, home renovation, etc.) where you'd never know there was a single BIPOC person in the entire city. I mean, yay Timothy Olyphant to be sure, but maybe as part of the 14% of the cast max that, for any level of accuracy, could be white.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I remember years ago there was a show about policing the gritty streets of Toronto. They'd have to ship in their garbage, arrange it artistically in the alleys they wanted to shoot in and then post guards to keep their imported garbage from being cleaned up.

I think that happened when Toronto was the filming spot for "Chicago" scenes in Due South, too.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I was in Toronto the day after the Raptors win the NBA Championship a couple of years ago and I can tell you that’s no longer a problem.
