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.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

The first episode is up on the Showtime website.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

The show is called "Masters of Sex," though, which makes it kind of difficult to talk about without a lot of explaining. It's non-fiction-ish, based on the lives of Masters and Johnson.

I wondered from the commercial if it was about Masters & Johnson. Cool.

Cool about your cousin too...that looks like it could be a big one.

Yeah. She's been in a few things before -- one episode of Grey's Anatomy, one episode of Bones, a bunch of commercials, a really ridiculous Lifetime movie -- but this is her first recurring role.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Go, cousin of Hil!

I wish I could see that side of the family more often. They're pretty much my closest relatives on my dad's side, but since they live in LA, we only see them every few years or so.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

note: quick point about the GOP and Obamacare (no ranting - at least not today)

I read an article in the past few days about how the majority of government employees are in states who voted for Romney as opposed to Obama in the last election. Take Wyoming for example, for all of their railing against federal gov, state govt, the govt is a HUGE employer.

I make this point because the House GOP loves to rail against Obamacare, some believe that it will work and that's why they are against it. Why couldn't another result be that it works, and that in some regions of the country it still does not substantially change the political dynamic of those who current support GOP or Democrats?

It seems to me illogical to think that Obamacare = more Democratic voters when government employees do not equal more Democratic voters.

That said, apparently a lot of virulently anti-Obamacare GOP are fundraising the shit out of this issue, so that's what is really driving the Ted Cruzes.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

This morning I noticed that there are actual baby lemons on my tree! [link] Not just those two, either--there are about 5 of them total.

I live a very exciting life.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

BTW definitely the right William Lipow. And now that I know his original name was Welwel Lipowitz , maybe I can find out the details about the family legend of his killing a Cossack.

Thanks so much Hil.

Great! Glad I could help.

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

Yay lemons! That was fast, you don't usually get fruit the first year, I don't think.
