I loved when Bodie told Herc and Carv that the judge expects "medical school, law school, all that good shit" from him.

Forget Lost. Just watch the last episode and be done with it.

Not yet. There's still a lot of winter to get through, though.

My family being here is the only reason I live here. If they all died in a plane crash or something I would move the next day.

My Dad told me today that he wants to take some sort of river cruise in Cambodia. I told him that didn't sound safe and he told me that Pol Pot was gone and laughed at me.

1. Gus Haynes
2. Stringer Bell
3. Bunny Colvin (I love the fact that he was able to rise up in the ranks strictly from doing police work.)
4. Bubbles
5. Gus Haynes a second time. I love Mr. Augustus Haynes. He's the main reason season five is my favorite. He's also the reason, along with skitch, that I started watching Homicide and get school-girl giddy when I see Clark Johnson appear before an episode of Homeland.

Most overrated: Leandor Sydnor.

Honorable mention: Marlo/Partlow. These guys scare the absolute shit out of me. They never have any big speeches or emotional scenes, yet they convey so much with stoicism. Brilliantly terrifying.
I'll be the one in the lobby in the green fuck me shirt. The green one.
