Ah, gotcha.

As it happens, I spent the entire run of Wonderfalls living in a place where Fox wouldn't come in. A week before, I had Fox. As of this week, I have Fox. In between, not so much.

So, yes, all my fault.

It's like they hate me. Specifically me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I like the 'sode reference, but I'd rather we used the exact quote. ("You had a sode," not "you're having a sode.")

I just misremembered.

They don't hate you, you had a 'sode.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Overworked? C'mon -- comedy loves threes!

Exactly!

I still think "Like Artaud, With Whimsy" is perfect.

To Artaud, the more important aspects of existence are those submerged in the unconscious, those things that cause divisions within people and between people and lead to hatred, violence, and disaster. He believed that if given the proper theatrical experiences people can be freed from ferocity and can then express the joy that civilization has forced them to repress... Or as Artaud put it, "the theatre has been created to drain abscesses collectively."
