I think it was around February this year the box set of The Wire was on special offer and I bought it as a bribe to myself. Write the motherfucking paper then you can watch the motherfucking show (K’s name for it based on trying to watch the late night BBC2 showings without subtitles). Still haven’t written the paper.

Oh looks like there's now a special offer on Amazon.fr (UK import!)too. It's half price. I've been waiting for it since January.

:) so what's French for motherfucker?

I'd say "fils de pute" like "hijo de puta" in Spanish...even though it doesn't exactly mean the same (looks like the worst you can be in French is a whore's son not someone who fucks moms!). I ordered the box of course.

Now of course, I'm tempted by another English import with a similar price: the complete six seasons of OZ.

It's all your fault, you know!

I think you mean Daniels here
Arrgh, I can't believe I confused those two names. The characters appeared together a lot at the beginning but are almost diametrically opposite. I can't despise Burrell yet, he has that avuncular thing going for him and he did step uo to talk to Cheryl but a Daniels he absolutely isn't.

I will have to go back and re-watch when the five seasons are up, the show is so incredibly dense, it really is like a novel and this is the first, stay up all night, can't put it down read. And I want to see your 3rd season vid because the song choice is to say the least intriuging from a season 1 perspective.
