Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

I can't remember, but I think he's the guy who axed S4 of Deadwood before his shameful departure. Which certainly colors my opinion of the guy.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

Well, yeah, he's a total Jarry. But still I wouldn't expect *that*.

Nobody's checking the vacants, right?

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

I had it in my head that The Wire was coming back in November, and I realized that it's almost November and got a little excited, but then I went and checked with HBO and it's actually January that it comes back.

Sigh.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

I know. And this time I'm HBO-less. Whine. But last time having it come back close to my birthday fueled all my Simon "spousal delusions" You guys know that that's tongue-in-cheek, right? I'd hate to have something happen to me and for y'all to have to explain that away on "Dateline" My computer would be a real challenge for some "murder po-lice"

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I really hate the opening credits.

I looooooove the credits.

I just watched the finale and cried. I think I agree with this assessment:

The characters are well-drawn, I think. Sometimes I like one, sometimes another, they all take turns being idiots and bastards and woobies, kind of.

I definitely liked the show, though I don't know about all the praise it's gotten. But I'm glad I watched it as a cultural text, if nothing else.

They won many awards. I hate them like I hate no other opening credits. They hit a certain point when they should (in my mind) end, and they keep going, and it angers me beyond all reasonable expextation.

Fortunately, I watched most of the series on DVD and could just skip past them. Those episodes I watched live I'd have to busy myself with something else.
