Desperate Bicycles

Berta pointed out to me today that any scene in Desperate Housewives that has a view of the street during the day will contain a bicycle.

Wysteria Lane is plagued with bicyclists. At least they’re not the biker-pants and yellow-shirt wearing kind that flock around here, driving up (never down) the windiest, steepest-grade streets, insisting that they have a right to ride and yet cause themselves near death far too often.

Secret Santa Redeux!

Man, I’m just the luckiest guy this Christmas! My Secret Santa had already sent a wonderful gift of the System of the World, but today a postcard arrived from Amazon informing me that she has ordered me a gift subscription to Interview magazine! Isn’t that cool?

Interview has been on my Amazon list for so long… I’m so glad that it’s finally coming. Mucho thanks to my Secret Santa, who will be revealed to me officially on Christmas. (I have a good idea who you are, but I don’t want to assume anything and post my foot into my mouth.)
