'First Date'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Oh cripes, no, no, no...No more hurricanes hitting New Orleans. (Or Florida.)
Let it hit some deserted stretch of coastline... somewhere.
