And what kind of boutique for objet d'art has a line like that?

So, I know the electrified puddle is a TV trope, and I wouldn't volunteer to step into one, but would it actually do anything? There's no reason for current to flow out of the puddle, through the heart or brain and back into the puddle, is there?

Wouldn't "Alex is my cousin, Haley is my sister" work for Luke?

Yes there are two canids, but technically, Rosalee is a vulpine, not a canine.

I think you meant Canine-American.

Yes, you could always arrange to get Boardwalk if you were willing to overpay enough for it. That would be poor strategy though.

Oh he would. What I was trying to say was that I don't think that was what the script was trying to convey with that remark.

The thing is there's more strategy in checkers than there is in Monopoly. And in particular, who gets which property is largely a matter of luck.

I would say the public was an issue also. We've come a long way in 20 years.

I'm not sure what social services you think homeless people suddenly get access to just by being arrested.

Funny how there are never rights issues for Aquaman, B'wana Beast, or Detective Chimp.

What a hard luck character he was. He was older than Billy Batson, but his alter ego didn't get the "grow into adulthood" part of the mojo, so he wound up teenage sidekick to a tween. That had to be hell.

Thanks, I was going to guess business cards.

Superman in his own books is a pretty decent detective and an intelligent strategist, but when Batman is around, he's just muscle.

You brought it up. The thing I was curious about was why you mentioned Sweden, and as far as I can tell, you had no good reason to do so.

18 weeks is halfway through the second trimester. The majority of the abortions discussed in that article are still before that.

I'm not sure what you think is so restrictive in Sweden? Women are allowed to abort completely by choice up to 18 weeks. After that, abortion is allowed for cases involving issues of fetal or maternal health.

In some ways, Alison having children at all is a poor creative choice. You can't fully enjoy her craziness if you don't pretty much ignore the impact it must be having on her kids.

But if he does, at least it won't be erased from the timeline in the next episode.

It's true that in the movies, Bail Organa never uses a title other than Senator, IIRC. But since "Queen of Naboo" was an elected position, it's not clear that Padme could pass it on either.
