House, End of Season 3

[thecloris]

Short, spoiler-free version: Squee!

So, umm, well... fucking wow! Now that's the ballsy show we've all come to love to snark at and with. =) "Best of Show" hat, indeed.

Notes from fandom with too much time: yes, the Cottages will be back. Some of the actors' contracts terms are still in negotiations, but that happens this time of year, if you don't

Do you know Sabine?

I think you'd like her House musings.

[thecloris]

I don't know if I do or not -- all I can see are some reading lists on her LJ, but she reads HOWSE!!1, so she must be cool.

An OBE award isn't a knighthood, so Mr. Laurie isn't entitled to any titles. (Pun not intended but amusing nonetheless.) Knights bachelor have the KBE abbreviation and knights grand cross are KGC, I think.

To clarify further, and help you with your 19th-century novel-reading (which I know you do, right?):
Knights and dames are titled Sir/Dame FirstName.
Baronets are titled Sir LastName.

I didn't watch the episode, so I can't comment on it. I watched a rerun of Veronica Mars, because I am a glutton for punishment.

Ack -- true, true! My mistake, hell I'm probably lucky I was even in the neighborhood. *lol* Thanks

My reading skills are highly variable. Sometimes I can read long books w/o a problem; other times I have what you described and can only concentrate for a few paragraphs. I find I can read magazines or the internet better than books when I have a short attention span, since the former are broken into short passages of text.

Seasons 1 & 2 of VM are available on DVD. The third season is available on iTunes and the CW website. The library might have the DVDs - some fans had a DVD drive to donate sets to libraries in the 50 largest Nielsen markets in order to hook new fans.

I'm hoping to be able to read books again soon -- right now I can only read books that I already *know*: Imagica, Inherit the Wind, Story of O, you know... the classics. =)

Cool, cool -- a friend let me borrow a few seasons of Nip/Tuck, but it looks like then it's off to the library, or something!

I missed the show, had to work! But I'll bet someone recorded it, eh? :)

What're y'all doing Monday?

[thecloris]

Well, yeah, duh! *rofl*

Monday? Just trying to get the kids adjusted to not running nuts now that they'll be out of school, wanna' come watch some House? =)

[darkbopeep]

Sounds like a plan! I might have to wait until after 2 pm because $2 is tutoring the new trumpet playing kids coming in to the school band until then. Would that be all right?

[thecloris]

Looks good to me!

Kudos to $2 -- helping beginning band is not for the timid!
