Great start to the new season. My only gripe is, why did they have to bring back that embarrasingly annoying chemistry (now physics) teacher? ---

Prediction for the next episode: Something happens to Adam that Joan could have prevented but didn’t because she was ignoring God. This will be used as a parallel to the business with Kevin not preventing his friend from driving drunk. (Just a WAG.) ---

All you said was that you’re going to put them on the tape, not that you have been. There’s a distinction there that I’d’ve expected you to get as an English professor. 😛 Yeah, that triple negative was intentional. Are your eyes crossed yet? 😃 ---

I have taped. I am taping. I will tape. I use two VCRs. Or I can have to use my friend’s VCR when I house- and dog-sit for her. Tapes are in progress. Threads are continuing. Are you following all this? ---

Or at least let her hair grow out & put her back into Callisto battle-leather. Yep! That’s Hudson/Heidi Leick, Callisto from XENA.
