My biggest issue is that they haven't given us any reason to care about Quinn so all the focus and sacrifice is irritating rather than interesting. They needed to be dropping some clues well before this.
except for being so annoying and incompetent that you figured that there had to be something else going on?
In terms of the debates. At this point most supporters of both sides are playing the lowered expectations game so hard as to claim that their guy is preverbal, and if they manage to speak in complete sentences, win!
It's weird--some members of Romney's staff were busy raising expectations. Dunno if they're all on the same page now.
What kind of surgery does one have on their eyes to make the anime look easier? Her makeup was so clearly optical illusion that I'm confused.
You know, bigger eyeballs, enlarge the orbit, etc. The usual!
Okay, that was REALLY creepy.
Oooh, ESPN has a new documentary out, Broke, about the crazy way professional athletes go broke so fast. "By the time they have been retired for two years, 78 percent of former NFL players have gone bankrupt or are under financial stress; within five years of retirement, an estimated 60 percent of former NBA players are broke." Looks really interesting.

But if you really want to lose a lot of money, the fastest way might be to take the route of someone like Evander Holyfield, who is said in the film to have eleven children by nine women. You know what's probably more expensive than a failed car wash? Eleven kids, forever. Child support recurs over and over again in Broke, which gives an airing both to the athletes' complaints that women seek them out specifically to get pregnant and get rich and to the response that you can't very well throw your athlete status around to impress women in clubs and then claim they trapped you because of your athlete status. (I do wish they'd at least touched on the matter of birth control and whether that might be a logical way to avoid winding up supporting children you never intended to have. Because if not using birth control is part of athlete culture, that's noteworthy.)
As much as I HATE the Charmin bear commercials...right now we have back to back to back to back to back political ads. I'd love to see a bear show that he left pieces behind. And enjoy the go. And whatever. Static would be better. Fingernails on a blackboard would be refreshing.
OMG, a trifecta of cuteness: an orphaned wombat, kangaroo, and wallaby:
