Love season 5. Season 6 is the one to skip. -- nm - David Jan 6, 09:53 13
- Season 5 is written like John Wells went ot Aaron Sorkin's fantasy writing camp and forgot that the plots aren't one-offs. - Will Hunting Jan 6, 09:56 12
  - Oh, you've got the seasons wrong. You're talking about 6. Seven was the election. - David Jan 6, 10:02 4
    - Sorkin quit after Season 4. He left when Spoils - Will Hunting Jan 6, 10:04 3
      - Wow, I had no idea the first sentence of your IM happened. I must have only watched the first three seasons. -- nm - Inigo Jan 6, 10:24
      - Whoops, I'm wrong and you're right. Then, seasons 5 and 6 are both skips for me. -- nm - David Jan 6, 10:13 1
        
        (at least until Santos shows up in 6, whenever that is) -- nm - David Jan 6, 10:14
  - I would have loved to have seen a West Wing Mini Series during Season 6 that focused entirely on Alda's camp. -- nm - Remlik Jan 6, 09:58 6
    - Sorkin lost a lot imo when he torched Dubya (Ritchie in S3/4) instead of actually having a legitimate election between two solid characters. - Will Hunting Jan 6, 10:02 5
      - I just watched Posse Comitatus. It's in the discussion for best hour of television ever. - David Jan 6, 10:03 4
        
        It's a thousand miles below Two Cathedrals. - Will Hunting Jan 6, 10:05 3
        
        One of these days, I'm going to go back and find your posts about Posse Comitatus right after it aired. -- nm - David Jan 6, 10:15
        
        I also think that was the time he was 'cracking' out as well and that really hurt him. -- nm - Remlik Jan 6, 10:15 1

    - lil miss ccc picked that dress for her Princess makeover at the Bibbity-Bobbity Beautique...Photos in my FB album -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Jan 6, 10:17
    - 9 months later: "It's a boy!" *returns the Belle dress quietly* -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 6, 09:58
  - Yup. Even if she's not into Cinderella yet, she'll be captivated once she sees the outfit. -- nm - Inigo Jan 6, 09:56
Speaking from experience, prosciutto and bacon go together like vanilla ice cream and chocolate syrup. It's mana from heaven. -- nm - Mop Jan 6, 09:49 20
- it's like several different kinds of bacon! how could it not be good? -- nm - mafic Jan 6, 10:07
- I don't get the love for vanilla ice cream. I've always felt it's like saying I prefer water to coke. -- nm - Loyola Jan 6, 09:52 12
  - fwiw, I do prefer water to coke. never been a huge fan of carbonated sugar-water. -- nm - mafic Jan 6, 10:01
  - not the supermarket crap but good vanilla bean or french vanilla is heavenly. -- nm - zork Jan 6, 09:53
  - people forget that vanilla is actually a flavour. good vanilla ice cream is great. -- nm - Andie Jan 6, 09:53 9
    - I used to agree with Loyola, but now I agree with Andie -- nm - con_carne Jan 6, 09:54 8
      - Traitor. -- nm - Loyola Jan 6, 09:55 7
        
        my favourite flavour *and* the scent is super sexy. Some studies list it as the number one turn-on scent-wise for guys -- nm - zork Jan 6, 09:57 6
        
        I might try your recommendations. I know an ice cream shop that I never got a chance to getting around to. -- nm - Loyola Jan 6, 09:59 5
        
        For me, vanilla ice cream is ideal with most toppings -- nm - con_carne Jan 6, 10:01 2
        
        good vanilla doesn't need toppings -- nm - zork Jan 6, 10:13 1
        
        I'm not quite there yet with the van -- nm - con_carne Jan 6, 10:16

  - Giada De Laurentiis gets me all tingly in my giblets. -- nm - JaxSean Jan 6, 09:57
- that's more like vanilla ice cream and vanilla frozen yogurt. -- nm - Andie Jan 6, 09:50 2
  - Except I think the bacon is cooked and the prosciutto isn't -- nm - con_carne Jan 6, 09:56
  - good analogy. I was just going to point out the facts but this is better. -- nm - zork Jan 6, 09:51
