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

Wow, back on board two minutes and I get a cop-link. Cool. The most famous local cop here was known for playing the "hit-man" when the average person wanted one(It happens a lot here. I would ask why but I think it says it all that this is Cindy McCain's turf and that still didn't stop her from being a total fiend.)

She claims she doesn't swear like Nerese does though.

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

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

My wife quit Deadwood after two episodes when I first tried to foist it upon her. This time I got her to commit to watching through the third before she decides whether to stick it out or give it up. She's hooked.

It's a lot at first, I thought about giving it up. I think it took one whole disc for me to become...invested.

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

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

what was it do you think? the language? the brutality?
