Bloody Mary: He may not have meant it the way I'm interpreting.  No way to know, of course.  But he had to have known his colleagues would be the ones to find his body, and that it would make the news, and that people would associate his suicide with his recent firing.  But instead of leaving an angry note, he leaves…

The most poignant Lane-like suicide I've ever read about was of this type.  Middle-aged appellate lawyer, very successful but for whatever reason didn't make partner, got laid off in around 2008 when the economy tanked.  He goes into the office early the next morning and shoots himself at his desk.  Before doing so,…

I suspect that however much Tywin ostensibly wants his kids to achieve greatness, he also doesn't want them to get too big for their britches and overshadow him.  Probably as a result of his influence, even Jamie — who seems like he was grown in a lab to be the most powerful and charismatic figure who ever lived —…

I haven't seen it in a while, but I don't remember Bolo's twitching man-boobs appearing in Kickboxer.  But they did hold up quite well between Enter the Dragon and Bloodsport.

I wonder what it's like to feel like you were put on this earth for the sole purpose of sleeping with Eva Green.  Wait, no I don't.

During the brief window of time before your post gets deleted and you get banned, see if you can find the word in your first sentence that distinguishes the case you're talking about from the Trayvon Martin case.  It starts with a "c".

I'm not aware that pro-lifers consider birth-control pills (as opposed to the morning after pill) to be equivalent to manslaughter.  The issue Fluke testified about wasn't whether birth control pills should be used, but how and by whom they should be paid for.

There's also a major difference in the targets.  Palin and Malkin are intentionally divisive figures who go to great lengths to enrage liberals with bomb-throwing rhetoric.  Liberals have every right to respond with vicious personal rhetoric of their own.  (If someone tells me I'm not a real American and am a traitor…

Love the house psychic.  "Now zip it . . . and let me do my sweet funky."  Sad to see her go so soon, but her personality might have been too close to high-school Cordelia to build another long-term character around.

It's a combination of "Santos Maria!" (Epstein's Puerto Rican side) and "Oy Gevalt!" (his Jewish side).

There was a blond-haired dude with a southern accent who replaced Travolta, but I can't remember if it's the same guy.

Two random Epstein memories:

Or if you prefer:

Roses are red,
