You know, H, I have noticed your smoking references a few times and I have to admit I was pretty surprised that you have taken up this nasty habit. Sigh, I guess I taught you nothing in your formative years...other than do as I do....

Jude Law gives me this inner-Tourette's dialogue that goes something like this:

****! HIM! NAKED! SEX SEX SEX JUDE! ****! BEARSKIN RUG! SEX!

Nothing wrong with tourettes of the Jude Law variety. I still haven't seen Alfie yet and I really need to go see I Heart Huckabees.

Jude...

I LOVED Designing Women; that was one of the best shows ever! Thanks for posting those excerpts, Jason, I needed a laugh after paying bills...

You should be proud

That jar of sludge you had did gross me out enough to keep me off it for quite awhile! But I'm self-destructive, and smoking itches that for me, as well as giving me that total Zen calm that I haven't been able to replicate with anything else.

What can I say? No one will ever ask me to do an anti-smoking PSA
