Does it help that I also want Gunn to go back to shaving his head?
Julia, awestruck at her own shallowness this evening Yes, bring back Bald Gunn. I don't mind the suits but I liked his hair on his chin, not on his head. |

Wow, I love Frank Capra. The one-man filibuster, coached by the "secretary" who knows the Constitution and the rules of the Senate inside and out, the corruption and graft-controlled newspapers and pretty much everything else in Smith's home state - and the corrupt senior senator who undergoes a change of heart at exactly the right moment.
In RL, the corrupt senator would have remained corrupt, and Jeff Smith would have been ridden out of town (and his home state) on a rail, but sh*t like that don't happen in a Capra movie.
Good stuff.

Gotta love Capra. Christmas isn't complete without a couple of viewings of It's a Wonderful Life. I love Mr. Smith too. Jimmy Stewart is one of my all time favorite actors. |

I hope they'll have Spike wear some blood-red shirts again, maybe an occasional blue or cream top.

Okay, so, as promised: somewhat on-topic! I've never seen this episode of Angel before (Birthday), but so far, very entertaining. Coupla things: Cordy's running around, all incorporeal, not able to communicate with anyone (Hello! Plot recycling, much?), possesses Angel to try to use his body to write a message (still seeing the parallels), and while he's trying to describe it to Wes: "How are *you* a Champion?" (Exasperated) And Cordy in a coma, again. (Or, rather, now is again.) But Fred and Gunn searching Cordy's apartment is priceless. Gunn: "What, you never hid anything in your underwear drawer?" Fred: "Well, for five years I didn't even have. . . ." Gunn with the raised eyebrow. And then, after it turns out that Cordy's secrets are hidden under the bed: Fred (to Gunn): "You went for the underwear drawer first, didn't you?" Hee hee. |

Our Picture of the Week winner is Caraleigh with her blatant and shameless campaign slogan
of 'Losing Sucks! Vote for Me!'
Way to go Caraleight! And that delicious picture of Spike didn't hurt any either! Congratulations! *smile*
The new picture nominations thread is open - remember, it will be open through Wednesday - if you have a nomination you want me to host try to get it to me early enough for me to get the URL back to you so you can post it, ok?
And again, if you want to save some of the pictures from this week to your hard drive, go ahead and do that now, I'll be removing them from my site to make room for the new ones! Thanks!
