Ultravox is a blind spot in my music knowledge. I remember reading about the band, but never hearing their music on local radio. I think the only thing I ever heard even tangentially was Midge Ure's solo song "Answers to Nothing", and that wasn't until 1988.

Isn't that what Snickers were called in England?

I started listening to The Americans podcast first, so it feels the right length to me compared to the Better Call Saul podcast. It feels tighter…10 minutes with an actor, 10 minutes with a set designer or stunt coordinator, nice tight broadcast. As much as I enjoy the Better Call Saul podcast, it seems a little…

How dare you. I love my Nestle Crunch.

Those are a lot of plot lines in the air for a show that only recently found out it was going to be renewed. I would suspect that they might try to tie up most of them before the finale.

Oleg might know his Washington Federals team, and be a fan of tailback Craig James of ESPN college analyst fame.

I read that book in college. I have never appreciated the meals I ate more than for the three weeks we read that book. Every flake of cereal, every grain of rice felt like a gift.

He's probably quoting all the Buckwheat stuff now. My friends and I loved running Buckwheat dialogue at each other, but it made my older sister batshit crazy. Serves her right for drilling Spandau Ballet into my head with her incessant cassette playing.

The confrontation between Peggy and Joan in the elevator reminded me of their earlier elevator confrontation in "The Summer Man", where Peggy fires the freelance ad guy because a drew a lewd picture of Joan. Once again it seemed that Peggy was trying to share some empathy with Joannie, but she wasn't having it, and…

That was Andie MacDowell's daughter, Rainey Qualley.

Megan was in the promos for the show, so I think she'll make an appearance this season.

Those Canadian illegals are a lot less forthcoming.

I inherited a "Thinking Man's Football" board game as a hand-me-down from a cousin. You used a grease-pencil to draw your position on the field. http://www.gamepile.com/det…

I missed the references to The Verdict and Dark Crystal. When was that?

I'd love to see Elizabeth going down to the basement to get some spy stuff behind the washing machine, only to find another Henry spank stash in its place.

How did I forget that Bill Murray was in Tootsie? I only remember Sidney Pollack playing the sidekick to Dustin Hoffman.

I couldn't tell if Philip took the phone off the hook so that Paige couldn't call out, or if that was some pre-arranged signal to the KGB that something was amiss or someone needs to start recording.

Fast and Furious: RED Edition

Good movie, and it sent me on a hunt for pie throughout my city for about a month afterwards.

Not "TUSK"?
