I don't know. I'm wait'n' and see'n' on whether the fact we already have a bill like this from the saner era of its application will prevent us from having to deal with this exact shenanigans or make it yet more comical.

So, it goes down and everyone just mourns? No one jumps into the space?

I am shocked, shocked I tell you, that anyone would put a kibosh on complaint against the metaphysical cruelty that is the CBS streaming service.

Presumably for the same nexus of reasons the network has a streaming service in the first place?

I taught during the very early stages of that phenomena and there were two clear motivations:
1. Channel the inevitable conversations
2. For a situation like a giant commuter school where the percentage of the student pop with 'soft' academic skills was really low ANYTHING that might make someone perk up enough to ask

He had a great bit on Judge Jon Hodgeman too.

It's not gunning for number 1 on the places I frequent, but it is up there.

I used to carry my kiddo in a bjorn. Coincidentally, to get to the awesome walking path near our house you had to go past a skate-park.

What's killing this show for me is that I have to use its channel's horrible streaming service. I already do that once a week for the Good Wife, but unless I start sinning a whole lot more I feel like that's pennance enough.

Yeah, I don't see much generational divide on that. It seems to be far more about personality/relative fatness of fingers.

That's an excellent point, the frog in the pot effect was as much for the audience as it was for WW.

There's actually some interesting analysis from Pew after the last round of elections and in prep for the next that indicates that only 3 of 8(?) political perspectives in the US are solidly aligned with anything.

That would have been better, I agree, but I can also see how that immediately gets cut by someone looking to make the scene leaner.

Betty got better?

Though I also REALLY liked the repeated hints that Walt's backstory mirrored his eventual fate more than the point where we meet him. That, in some ways, being the family man and teacher were as much an aberration for the guy who was the genesis of Gray Matter as anything that came after, and that his tendency towards

Your saying some tiny lady with wavy lines radiating out from her head making Batman doubt himself and frying his communication gear doesn't have game?

Their a great target for, Shakespeare forgive me, 'disruption.'

I don't know. I use them nearly every day. And I owe them a lot of interesting thoughts.

This is less a trouble with religion than discourse in general. There's always degrees, but it's hard to make, say, something like 'taxes,' 'romantic love,' or 'parenting' immune to similar criticism.

Mine was a place called Pinnochio's Pizza. Objectively, I've had worse jobs (picking pecans, scrubbing retail and non-profit toilets, teaching freshman at a public university) but that's the only one where a 5 gallon 'jug' of thousand island slipped from my chilled fingers as I was retrieving it from an upper shelf
