My mother's the same way. "Oh, just take stuff from the house when you leave, it will save you from sorting it out after I die."

He remembers enough to confess to his father so I'm guessing his memories haven't been wiped.

Yay, Alex is back! The end of this episode was just wonderful, seeing Norman cry in the car like that. I can't even imagine how this is going to go bad while knowing it will. It was like everybody got a chance at a happy ending this week. And I was never more reminded of Alex (I think) pointing out that everyone is

My favorite scene was the scene between Mike and Jimmy at the elevator bank. Mike really bristled at that "better part of valor" phrase. It seemed to me like it really bothered him, and I'm not sure why. Yes, he gets who and what Jimmy is and probably doesn't like the comparison, but Jimmy gets under his skin quite a

Everyone in my family does this. Everyone. I spent my life being called by my aunt's name, my mother was always called her mother's name, and yes, I call my son my dog's name or my husband's name. I try to explain to my husband and kids that it's a genetic thing, but they don't really seem to believe me.

Brendan Fraser is a great pick.

Steve Martin is good. Eddie Murphy would be great. Talks himself out of dangerous situations, just wants to get back to the corrupt streets of Ankh-Morpork, nobody listens to him when he's right.

I always picture Tom Berenger as Mike Stearns.

Redford was very not right for that role. Martin Lawrence was worse. You need an upbeat Kelp playing off a a downbeat Dortmunder, cast both together. How about Bob Odenkirk as Kelp and Bryan Cranston as Dortmunder?

Lori Petty could be Harley Quinn right now.

Oh I love Marty Feldman as Nobby. Slim Pickens isn't a bad choice for Colon. But I love Charles Dance as Vetinari, that would be tough to beat. I'm thinking Sean Bean as Vimes. Carrot and Angua are much harder to cast, I'm totally drawing a blank. Rhea Seehorn would be a good Angua, but she's actually the right age.

Many of the old people I know don't seem to sleep well. A lot of them are up late at night due to insomnia, pain, incontinence, anxiety, etc. The assumption that the elderly go to sleep early and sleep well is a little off, but it's still odd that they nixed Jimmy's perfectly timed slot. Money, I guess.

Yup, I called that one. Because they do it all the time on Game of Thrones. "Jon, I have something important to tell you about your mother… but it can wait until the next time we meet." So now it's super noticeable when shows do the "I can tell you next time we meet" ploy.

Yeah, we were asked to do it a few years ago and refused. We have enough paperwork to fill out in our lives. Plus I refuse to pretend I live in an earlier century.

The gamemaster releases the bees! It's super effective against candidates who can still feel pain!

Monk is a great hangover show. I hate that it's no longer on Netflix.

Yup, 30 Rock, House, and of course the original Law and Order, America's hangover show. Oh, and ID channel's Deadly Women.

The rehab centers are called Narconon. They're front organizations and not run professionally at all, as in no medical professionals on site and many lawsuits against them for having them get patients to sign contracts while they're high. As always, great information on Tony Ortega's website, the Underground Bunker.

Oh man, I just picked this up last night! It's very accessible. She really makes you both feel what it was like to be preteen Leah and also be able to see the logic behind her absorption in Scientology (being treated like an adult even though she wasn't, cigarettes, coffee, strolling unattended in NYC). And you can

Oh, the faxing of the documents was sooo tense. That was so well done.
