The original Cupid was a good showcase for Piven. Piven and Marshal were a great match.
Nothing worse than a monster who thinks he's right with God.

Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I just found that last week.ETA: Although in Brilliant but Cancelled circles, it is legend(wait for it) dary. Awesome, wasn't it? Sweet without being sticky, sexy without over-selling...they must have been crushed when it failed.

“Not dead yet!”
I loved Cupid. But it aired on ABC during a stunning run of "Oh, it's a smart series, let's cancel it!"

They're the do that network, Barb. Although NBC will fuck up the show first trying to save it, I think that may be worse.

I enjoyed Cupid when it was on. sigh ....
I recently got a set of the first season of Boomtown for $3.99 and I've been going through that - that was good TV, too.

Yeah, it was. And not half as complicated as legend had it.(I mean, in that bad, messy, way)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Loved Boomtown so much.

I do like the RB guitars better than the GH ones.
What's the difference?The RB version has "solo" buttons down at the base of the neck that do *not* require strumming. That's the big difference. Others that are more hard core users probably know more differences.

why was I such a good student, and do the homework of watching the boring Google Apps videos if the class is going to do all the same information all over again? Wasted a couple hours watching them, wasting time now. :: yawn ::

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Wow! Shaun Del Grande of the Del Grande Dealer Group called me to once again apologize for the shitty treatment I received at Oak Tree Mazda—which he assured me is one of the top something-or-other dealerships in customer service. He read my letter and thought the salesman's behavior was "ridiculous," and he's going to be talking to him and turning this into a learning experience. (The salesman, of course, is normally "fabulous.")
He pulled up my record and commented that the price I'd gotten for my car was the lowest he'd ever sold one for, and they'd taken a loss of over two thousand dollars (which is what the dealership had told me when we were trying to push the price down, but I didn't know whether it was truth or tactics). He surmised that maaaaaybe the salesman thought he'd "given me enough," but even if that explained his reasoning a bit, it was still obviously unacceptable. He did say that there was a 90-day policy on things that needed to be taken care of, but he understood that it hadn't been made clear to me. He asked me what it said on the paperwork, and I told him that it said to make an appointment for such-and-such date, but he asked whether it specifically said that the work had to be completed within ninety days, and I said it didn't. I really appreciated that at no time during any of this was he trying to make excuses for what had happened, and at no time did he imply that any of it was my fault.
So he's totally going to have the scratch fixed properly, painting both doors so that it looks right—the unexpected bonus being that he'll have to paint over the big section where someone keyed me—and he'll also look at the transmission issue so I can get both things taken care of in one trip. And he will give me a rental car as soon as I bring the car in.
And the best part? I told him I was uncomfortable about going back to Oak Tree Mazda, and he said that the good thing was that he owned two Mazdas. So I can go to the other one!
He will satisfy my every desire! He really is going for 100% customer satisfaction, I see!
