Oh, ick, Sue. That happened to me once, but it wasn't a cold, so maybe yours will pass, I hope. Whatever it was, it was apparently the thing in the universe I'm mostallergic to. Very disconcerting. Hope it goes away soon.
Zoe: Uh huh. River, honey? He's putting the hair away now. River: It'll still be there... waiting.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I know nothing about the character or anything.
Neither do the movie's makers. The movie is a comedy, with what looks like flashily edited martial arts. The series was played mostly straight, and featured unparalled fighting (Bruce Lee). Seth Rogen just isn't the guy, and all the promos indicate that they're willing to amp up the goofy guy goes hero angle.

And no, I don't care that the GL trailer looks a little jokey. I still think they got the point.

Green Hornet looks like "Let Kato do all the work while slacker Hornet gets the credit." I don't remember enough of the original to know what the Hornet did to justify his street cred--other than to bankroll Kato.

Got it. I'm uninitiated enough to not know what's out of character.

Does anyone know if Trader Joe's has a decent selection of Greek yogurt? I need to restock, and am trying to figure out if I can get away with going to TJ or if I have to schlep over to Whole Foods instead.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Man, I'm crampy and miserable today, and I swear the construction smells are sharper than ever before. But that might be crampy.
Aren't you supposed to have to share space to be on the same cycle??? In short: bleh, and me too.

They definitely have their own brand, and I think Fage as well?

And for the triple-post:
Good luck with the job sitch, Hayden, and I hope your mom is fine, erika.

Jesse is right. The Fage is far superior to the house brand.

He was definitely a capable lead. He was the primary problem solver--thought Kato wasn't portrayed as stupid. It was a playboy/hero scenario (but undercover hero--the Hornet pretended to be a bad guy) like Batman, but he was not as caddish as Bruce Wayne in his daytime persona.
