MysticWicks endorsement: "I've always, always regarded the Discordians as being people who chose to be Discordians because they can't be arsed to actually do any work to develop a relationship with a specific deity, they were too wishy-washy to choose just one path, and they just want to be a mishmash of everything and not have to work at learning about rituals or traditions or any such thing as that."

Peter Falk dead at 83.

I thought this quote from the article was amusing:

QuoteWhen not working, Falk spent time in the garage of his Beverly Hills home. He had converted it into a studio where he created charcoal drawings. He took up art in New York when he was in the Simon play and one day happened into the Art Students League.

He recalled: "I opened a door and there she was, a nude model, shoulders back, a light from above, buck-ass naked. The female body is awesome. Believe me, I signed up right away."

Cynicism is a blank check for failure.

Well, he was 83, after all.

Dammit.

I had just one more question I wanted to ask him.  :sad:
Formerly something else...

They don't make them like him anymore.  That last great gumshoe of recent memory was Lenny Briscoe from the original Law and Order series.  Goren on Law and Order: CI is pretty good but that show is getting cancelled.  The rest of them are just boring, run of the mill, detectives.
