I've had disagreements with 'ol Sator-Arepo in the past (...but... of the kind you would have over having a beer and laughing about it), but this post hits the nail on the head.
In the Loop is in the queue. Malheureusement, The Thick of It does not register on the Netflix radar.
Something for shoo nerds. Von Rothbart stumbles upon a shop that happens to be stocked with Vass from floor to ceiling. OMG.

I just read this great post on Fark comments about men vs women:
"Isn't funny how stupid men are? Just because women are attractive doesn't mean they aren't crazy, nor filled with more STDs than a homosexual sailor."
Some info on Vass;

the days of sheer tackiness are over. a good move from eg.
I starrted watching the "Gravy Train Goes East" last night (not as good as the first one) and the Spearpoint/Richardson character had this great line, when he meets Dorfmann at the airport and offers him a lift before realizing they are going to different locations and he will have to make a special trip for Dorfmann.
Spearpoint: "Oh very well then, what's a little deviation between friends."
Did anyone watch teh NBC coverage of the Olympics last night? Bob Costas was talking to Cris Collinsworth about something or other, then Collinsworth said some dumb jingoistic comment about an athlete, which presumabely Costas decided was a bit too rabid because he instantly said:
"Hey I just looked at the monitor, and we look like the glee club of a boys' prep school."
Which was true because Costas was wearing a blazer and repp tie, Collinsworth a camel hair blazer with vest and striped tie. It was a clever left-field observation and I laughed. Collinsworth was not amused.
