these shows are works of fiction

So now Tom DeLay has his panties in a twist over an episode of Law & Order in which the police are searching for someone in a Tom DeLay t-shirt.

My favorite quote from Dick Wolf: “Up until today, it was my impression that all of our viewers understood that these shows are works of fiction as is stated in each episode.”

less than important

The thing about blogging is that the longer I go without posting, the more substantial I feel the post that breaks the silence has to be. But I think that I need to get over that feeling, because at this point, the pressure is already so great that I’m not sure I’ll ever have something meaningful enough to say again, and no one wants that. And if you do want that, you should just stop reading right now. So there.

Anyway, at first I was AFK because I accidentally acquired a job, and then I was all busy with finals, and then when finals were over my hours at the accidental job increased, and now Summer classes have started and I’m working and I just have nothing especially interesting to say.

But the hope is that now that I’ve broken the silence, I’ll feel able to post something less than monumental in the near future.
