Making a Mission:Impossible movie where Jim Phelps betrays the IMF is like making a WWII movie where Patton does everything he can to ensure a German victory.

You're a prince among men. I shall rename my firstborn Optramark in your honor.

Thank you for confirming. And please excuse my laziness.

TOO SOON!

A Golden Age indeed.

Damn, you beat me by a minute! I am in awe of your tastes in TV themes as I am of your timing.

The best one-two punch The Office ever did, never topped, was Drug Policy followed by Conflict Resolution. (Or maybe the order was reversed. But these were the episodes that hooked me, after several false starts.)

C'mon, guys, The Rockford Files.

I also liked the general mess and clutter of everything, like the actors were fellow third-graders who couldn't be bothered to clean up their…

Well if we're having THIS discussion…

How can you make jokes about this?

A great story, in keeping with everything else I've ever heard about him.
