Easy joke because you didn't have to worry about making it funny?

@HRN: Unfortunately, you are wrong. "Terriers" was not boring. It was compelling, well-plotted, and funny as hell. And if you didn't understand the motivation for delving into the land deal, then you either weren't watching or are a dim person. They thought the rich dude was getting away with killing Hank's friend.

I've been reading detective novels for 25 years and have never seen "terrier" employed as slang for a detective. Google tells me you're right, and I understand the association, but as a title it's about as subtle as to make no sense at all.

Seriously. Goddammit.

Nah
I don't know . . . no way they would have left Jim alive under that tree. And no way he'd have wanted them to.

" I don't want to dwell on the man's looks . . ."

Instead, she insisted on taking me with her to see Raiders of the Lost Ark, a movie I'd had no interest in and that fully blew my third grade mind.…

Whatever that was, I think it failed.

Neil Young
Can I say everything from Time Fades Away?

Bob Dylan
"Buckets of Rain" from Blood on the Tracks.

I have never heard of her or her band before.
That's all.

"We never pick a president who is above, we pick somebody we identify with: the lowest level, the most common. We didn't pick the best politician in the Bush family, which of course was the governor of Florida. We picked the beer-drinking good ol' boy. Ask them to lead us in areas that maybe…
