[QUOTE=carnivorousplant] [Dudley Doright’s](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dudley_Do-Right) main squeeze. [/QUOTE] Ahh. Thanks. Can’t say I ever bothered with that one. I just thought it might be a really irritating 24 character that I’d totally managed to block out. -Joe ---

[QUOTE=Merijeek] Can’t say I ever bothered with that one. [/QUOTE] Ever seen Doyle and Dudley together at the same time? Think about it… ---

Sorry, just poking fun at the cliche`of the damsel in distress. Guess I decided (out of boredom while fighting a cold) the right time to begin watching again… ---

[QUOTE=featherlou] Is anyone else getting a feeling that they’re grooming Doyle to be an apprentice/replacement for Jack? [/QUOTE] Well, maybe an apprentice – at least until Jack has to kill him for some reason, or at least cut off a limb. ---

[QUOTE=JThunder] Wouldn’t that make him a padawan instead? [/QUOTE] Depends. Is Chase still Jack’s padawan learner? You can only have one at a time, you know. ---

[QUOTE=Monstre] Depends. Is Chase still Jack’s padawan learner? You can only have one at a time, you know. [/QUOTE] I saw Chase as a severely retarded guy on some Law & Order - I like to think he was just extremely traumatized from his time with Jack. -Joe ---

[QUOTE=Monstre] Can’t Wayne just go rest for a while, and leave explicit orders for the Vice President to **not** launch any nukes on his shift, at least not without consulting Palmer first? [/QUOTE] This was my thinking too. Does Wayne HAVE to wear his tie to be taken seriously? Does he HAVE to keep standing up to continue being consider the CiC? He could still issue orders from a reclined position on the couch. Heck, I do it all the time. Or at least sit down, loosen the tie, and make people come to YOU. You are the pres after all.
