I loved Ron's actual punch - it was a tight little pop to the face, no wind up or anything - the punch you would expect from Ron Swanson.

The entire Moore/Gaiman run of Miracleman would be great to have re-released in trade or hardback.  It's not too hard to find through more… questionable ways.  I'd love a re-release, though.

Maybe we should just call it "two episodes" and be done with it.

Wouldn't it have to be Front to Front then?  Because you start with the front, exit the back and you're at a new front.

I'll be very sad to see this show end - but I also feel the show's losing momentum.  I think the Leslie Ben wedding and success of the park would end it well.

Bread is actually super easy to remember.  Most of the chef's probably know the Baker's Ratio - it's something like 5:3 flour to water with a percentage of salt and yeast.  The yeast in this case comes from the sourdough - very easy.

I loved Josh's presentation, but I wish he'd stopped at "I made fried chicken."  (mic-drop).  If I'd done it, I would have pulled a Ron Swanson - "This is my fried chicken.  It's chicken that's been fried.  You can put hot sauce on if you want. I couldn't care less."

I got the vibe from Tom that he'd had it with Josie's BS - I think he was pretty torn on last week's decision - and wasn't going to fool around if she screwed up this week.  He said he'd eat Brooke's again, but wouldn't touch Josie's.

Oh God yes to your first point.  I was about to post that the framing art is some of my least favorite.  It's very ugly and busy and weird - I don't think it detracts but it certainly doesn't add.

This is an exciting re-read to join - thanks to holiday gifts, I now have the entire collection to re-read.  I look forward greatly to January 15.
