Yes, I think a double dactyl makes more sense.

Another good one is Klein's Beer, which comes in a Klein bottle (google it).

Now's probably a good time to revisit the Law & Order episode Alec Baldwin wrote, in which a paparazzo is shot, to the delight of the public.

I didn't like it much at all, for what it's worth.  I certainly wouldn't describe it as a heartpounding thriller.

I really liked Paul Krugman's reinterpretation of "Stopping by the Woods on a Snowy Evening":

Do we have any evidence that he lost his house?

The son seemed to have an attractive wife, maybe some kids?  Probably earned decent money, probably wasn't stupid enough to blow it on a house he couldn't afford.  It's not that I have no sympathy for him, it just seems that life has been a lot kinder to him than it has to, say, the Filipino nanny.

I don't know, I always saw this song as more of a story of a ne'er-do-well traveler trying to win over a sweet gal.  Maybe re-listen to it and let me know if you agree?

I liked the SVU episode with that actor from The Wire.

My favorite is that if a suspect admits to anything, he is almost certainly not guilty of the murder.  "Okay, okay, I robbed the guy - but I would never kill anyone!"  99% of the time, this guy is telling the truth.

I know people say this, but it makes no sense.  Why would the legal half of the show be called "order" and the keeping-order half be called "law"?  I appreciate that legal issues permeate the whole show, but if you have to divide it into "law" and "order," clearly the courtroom antics are in the "law" segment.
