Just to say
The list of people on "Sons Of Anarchy" who were also cast members on "Deadwood" include…
Titus Welliver, who is Jimmy the Irish bastard, and who was Silas, the Yankton bagman.
Paula Malcolmson. Trixie, because that's what she'll always be.
Robin Weigert, who was Calamity Jane and now has a very small role as…

I was on board with that show back when it was still on MTV, but yes: The Maxx. Don't know why it doesn't occupy the same sentimental space as many other things that people get that way about.

Feel free to throw in "The Man With One Red Shoe," too, I guess. I seem to remember that wasn't very funny either. I hate Tom Hanks though, so there's that.

He couldn't hold a candle to Superbman!

Anything with Sam Waterson is automatically 50% funnier.
Even when he was Lincoln in Gore Vidal's "Lincoln".

Also Hendel; if you don't win one, you could probably just go to the gas station mini mart nearest you and buy one.

So this is your fault, then.

I was just starting my four year run in Olympia right about then, and Steve shows up in those United Buy and Sell Furniture Warehouse. One of my housemates immediately notes how sad and drunk our man looked there, and says, "Hi, I used to be funny…"

Yeah, those ads were sad-making, to be sure.

It's genuinely amazing how often a dysfunctional jesus hippy like Ozzy Osbourne will be accused of being a master manipulator satanist. It's even more amazing that in my time, I heard the same thing about The Eagles.

For instance, this probably would have made an okay musical.

"Ya gotta do it, Richard! Ya gotta save Christianity!"

Some sort of many-headed hydra of a Gordon Ramsey vehicle called, "TH' RESTRINT, YOU DONKEY!" or something.

Fuck SoCo, as well. That shit is for shrieking sorority harpies.

Here's something strange: I haven't run into a single opportunity to watch "It's A Wonderful Life", "Holiday Inn", "Bad Santa" or "The Lion In Winter" yet this month. I feel this is strange. Except for the last one: only I think that one's the greatest Xmas film of all.

I've just always found it to be the more boring album. "Mirror Man," that is. Listening to it right now.

That's interesting. I consider that song to be a placeholder on that album.
And no: I'm not giving you shit for not liking that album. Opinions don't need justifying. It's interesting to hear someone who isn't totally batshit about the rest of the album, like I am.

Long Winged Eel Slither
I've always held that what he made was psychedelia for those of us who didn't need any hand holding. It was incredibly dark, sometimes, and often was years ahead of the times in savagely ridiculing aspects of culture that hadn't even happened yet. It's a kind of vision that pretty much begs…

I'm not sure why you rate "Strictly Personal" so low, guy I don't know. It's mah favorite!

No, creeping surrealism does not sleep. But I'm sad he's gone, too.
