There is wrong, and there is wrong, and then there is that episode.
AHAHAHAHA. You were in my mind the whole time I watched it. I feel your pain.
And the southern accents? Also doublepluswrong. Not that they even try very hard with Sophie, but even the supposed native southerners? Ow.
Hahahaha. I laugh at you people, looking for realism(tm) from
Leverage.
Oh, you are so doomed to disappointment. Just relax and let the implausibilities nibble at the dead skin on your toes!
Today I will most likely get to see
Coraline
again, so I'm basking in the thought of having a fun goal for my day as well as class in the evening.
(Yes, they scheduled us for a holiday night, what with the class work being seriously behind schedule. It hurts less than missing a day of Boskone to be in class on Saturday, though.)
I have class tonight too, which stinks.
Yeah, most shows get the whole
horse racing/breeding/ dog show/dog breeding
stuff all wrong when they do it.
To me - Leverage was just one more example of the wrongness. You know there was a real
giant betting coup related to exotic betting and the Triple Crown
not too long ago. They could have done something ripped from the headlines
of the DRF
for that instead.
Technically, this is a holiday for me. And yet I am working. Bah.
I'm apparently the newest columnist for our local paper. It's not paid but it'll give me a chance to flex my atrophied journalistic muscles in a monthly parenting column. My intro column is going to run March 20th.
'Rock Threads': 1970 magazine photo-spread
This article from the March, 1970 issue of Show magazine focused on a few L.A. and NYC fashion designers known for outfitting some of the more flamboyant pop stars of the day.
The images were shot by Raeanne Rubenstein, a noted celebrity photographer and more recently the editor of Dish Magazine.
The text was written by New York fashionista and Village Voice journalist Blair Sabol.
That's awesome, Cashmere!
Congratulations, Cashmere! Will there be an online version?
