Also so hungry! And I had a bunch of sushi and seaweed salad for lunch. I feel like I can't eat enough this week.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
Consuela, I'm sorry your home plans aren't working the way you'd hoped. I hope some decent solution presents itself.

And what's with all the carrots?
Really? Do they just blunk out his face on their money? Maybe paste it over with a Reagan puss?
Or a Bush. Pick a Bush, any Bush. Speaking of, I imagine in 2016 Jeb will show up as a Presidential nominee.

What's a better vampire miniseries: Ultraviolet or Kindred?
Both, for entirely different reasons.
Ultraviolet is coolly atmospheric and grim where Kindred is frothy and romantic. Both have great characters and make fun contributions to the vampire genre.
If I had to say which I'd rather own, I'd say Kindred. I loved Mark Frankel and the series feels very 'Buffy' to me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Ultraviolet. Kindred is kinda cheesy campy.

EXACTLY. That's what I love about it.
Also, Ultraviolet features a very young 'Vampire Bill'...Stephen Moyers plays a different kind of vampire here and, honestly, I think it's a much more compelling character than he plays in True Blood.
