Something struck me in reading that io9 article. Didn't Gus claim to be (in addition to Somali and Irish) a Traveler?
Someone pointed out upthread that Fast Eddie also claims to be an Irish Traveller.

I gave my mother and stepfather The Wire season 1 for Xmas, with a little trepidation because of the cussin' and violence, but they loved it.

Because books.
Let me look into how much postage would be to ship them safely and we'll work something out.
Excellent.

Always Anti-fascist!
All The Wire love makes me happy. I would do the dance of Simonverse joy, but there isn't one. Just crashing cars and banging waitresses. Since Bureau 1, I've gotten meaner.I curse more, too...this is probably Simon's fault. But I've also been on enough boards to know that shit like Zoe? Happens all the time...well, maybe not the end, where she copied our code and spent time babbling to herself...that's a new wrinkle, but...

I have never watched The Wire, although I understand it's quality. I'm not sure what the hesitance is. I should drop it onto my queue.
Set a lot of time aside.
Steph, I noticed that thing with the Traveller game as well. Innnnteresting.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

It looks as if those boots were made for walking.
