Talk about a great advertisement for the book:

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1591840198/qid=1090847783/sr=8-1/ref=pd_ka_1/104-4861157-9441556?v=glance&s=books&n=507846




Plus Claire's drug induced ramblings about the war including stuff like how many people are we allowed to kill until we become the terrorists ourselves!

1. I caught that
I enjoyed last night's episode and how Alan Ball is incorporating as many recent events or political views into the show.

I hate when people shy away from what is going on - hell even the Sopranos brought up 9/11.

2. the slow death of the middle class
Was George's remark.

Thanks to Dish Network's PVR, I was able to "rewind" and see the book title that I missed the first time. :)

3. Cromwell is heavily on the left and it's nice he can...
...put that into his character on the show. I've always enjoyed James Cromwell who is an underrated but very talented actor. I first got turned on to his work when he starred in the movie "Babe". BTW, trivia fact about Cromwell - he was a longtime vegetarian who decided to become a vegan after starring in Babe. (which ironically was about a Pig who was suppose to be Xmas dinner but became a 'sheep herder' instead)

or something like that.

i hope it's a weekly thing.
