Bonaventure

Dude someone kinda spoiled it for me. Stop.

[spoiler]I heard that there was some desert scene, and I'm pissed. Apparently Walt tried to kill Jesse. Fuuuu[/spoiler]

hence, why I tried to be as vague as possible
The world is charged with the grandeur of God.
    It will flame out, like shining from shook foil;
    It gathers to a greatness, like the ooze of oil
Crushed. Why do men then now not reck his rod?
Generations have trod, have trod, have trod;
    And all is seared with trade; bleared, smeared with toil;
    And wears man's smudge and shares man's smell: the soil
Is bare now, nor can foot feel, being shod.

And for all this, nature is never spent;
    There lives the dearest freshness deep down things;
And though the last lights off the black West went
    Oh, morning, at the brown brink eastward, springs —
Because the Holy Ghost over the bent
    World broods with warm breast and with ah! bright wings.

[spoiler]The confession scene was epic. I really thought that he was gonna 'fess up to save Skyler's ass, but his plan is clicking.

I thought Saul was gonna shoot Jesse in the desert as they hugged. The "talk a walk" line could have worked.[/spoiler]

The only relevant pic that came up on Google, and it has a typo. Alas.

Anyone else watching Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.?

I watched it. I half expected the black guy to be Power-Man, and I thought
my idea of Nicholas Cage: Power Man was finally shut down.



He has indestructible skin, like diamond
The world is charged with the grandeur of God.

    It gathers to a greatness, like the ooze of oil
Crushed. Why do men then now not reck his rod?

    And wears man's smudge and shares man's smell: the soil

    Oh, morning, at the brown brink eastward, springs —
Because the Holy Ghost over the bent

I'm hoping I can watch SHIELD on demand, I forgot it was on last night.

I'm a bit afraid to watch a show where Whedon is involved. My son watched it and told me there was a bantering couple in it.  My reaction was, "Oh no, one of them is going to die!"

(Can you tell I haven't gotten over the death of Wash yet?)

Did he mean the scientists? Because that felt more to me like a sibling vibe.

Overall I thought it was fun. Definitely something different from the rest of the shows on tv. I hope they tone down all the pseudo-technology talk because that got old real quick.

Probably.  I asked my son if there was sexual tension and he said no.  So they do have a chance at survival.

I'll probably watch it when I can get up enough nerve.  But you just can't trust a show by a man who kills off the plucky comic relief.

In Canada you can watch it online on the CTV site.  I took the leap and watched it.  Sure I liked it, but I'll regret it when he starts killing my favourite characters.

And I read a review which also predicted death for one of the scientist couple, although slightly different reasoning than mine.  They're so doomed.  And Whedon is so Whedon.
