I think doing a show with central Islamic characters where they are not just pigeon-holed as terrorists and cab drivers was a pretty brave decision and a "only in Canada" show. I don't think you will ever see that type of show in the US. It was very refreshing to watch characters be devout Muslims and still be

Everytime I see Gupta, I think if he lost 30 pounds he could star in the Freddie Mercury biopic. The moustache is uncanny

Hey!
You missed the best part of that exchange:

E.R?

She's helping me straighten out my Longfellow.

We are him and he is us. We are one and all.

Gah!
There were a couple of "head-slap" moments in this show that made it hard to enjoy it fully.

Yay!
The return of Hans Zimmer!

Another unique show goes away…
I loved watching this because it was more than just a new twist on cop buddy shows (like it totally could have been). Like the Platte river it wasn't deep, but it was nicely broad.

"Cousin Jody" sure looks like the Creepy Dad without his false teeth in. The nose and chin are identical.

I love Steve Martin but if I'm paying $50 to see him, I'm expecting more than an interview. And ice cream cone and a hand-job, at least.

That's true. I tested raising last night and it was about 8-10% of their initial bet as a raise max.

There's a Washington, Nevada?

My problem is that I am a compulsive scavenger and have to collect everything valuable that's not nailed down. Having to make sure I have enough water for now and for the trip back to town, weighted ammo and pack mules (I mean "companions") that can die with a load of stuff on them, makes collecting much harder.

Up Here In Canada
The wife said "Dennis Quaid is seeking asylum in Canada". and I said "Dennis - you sure it's not Randy?"

Best thing about New Vegas
I'm loving the subtle call-backs to Fallout 2. Here's some I've noticed:

No way - Heartache By The Numbers FTW. It's running in my head RIGHT NOW.

Yeah - Caravan is easy money. Biggest pot I won was from the dinosaur store guy in Novac (Cliff something). What's the point of having a raise button, if you can't get them to "raise"?

I'll probably do that for my 2nd or 3rd play-through. Seems very challenging.
