Hello fuckers,


That's right...I'm watching THE WIRE, SEASON 5!!! There are only 10 episodes to this final season and I've already devoured 4 of them. I'd forgotten how utterly FANTASTIC this show is and I'm doing my best to savor the last remaining episodes.

Since viewing Season 4, I've watched and enjoyed plenty of other shows, such as: DEXTER, LOST, and THE OFFICE. But seriously, I wouldn't recommend or push any of these shows on anyone the way I would THE WIRE. It's literally the best show ever. It demands ones full attention and concentration, much like reading a good book, and so I'll repeat what I've already said to those who haven't seen it yet...

WATCH IT ALONE AND WITH SUBTITLES ON.

That's all. This is no review, I know. I'm not going to talk about the characters or anything...although maybe I will when I've finished all the episodes.

Oh, but I will say this for THE OFFICE (US version): it's literally the ONLY tv show that I buy and need to own on dvd!!! (THE HONEYMOONERS comes in a distant second place. And I know...it is pretty random. What can I say? I need my laughs.)

Alright, are we done here?

Oh--a quick reminder to anyone that writes to me here on MySpace: Please bear in mind that I'm usually on the computer for less than an hour a day (usually at the library) and that most of that time is spent writing to a special someone AND I can't even fucking TYPE, so...please be patient if it takes me a week or two to get back to you.

And thus concludes my disclaimer...

And NO!! I'M NOT ON FACEBOOK!!! I know it's better!!! It''s faster, cleaner and you can play Scrabble!! I know!! I know!!! But I CAN'T do both!!! It's either MySpace or FACEBOOK and I'm sticking with Betamax!!!

Now go rent THE WIRE!!!!

SO LONG, SUCKERS!!!
