    Grace make sure you (do what ever it is you are going to do) without letting anyone else see you do it.

    If you kill with an audience, you will end up recreating the Roman tradition of Gladiators.

    All the slavery, patriarchy and sheer violence is why I'm always a bit skeptical when people unreservedly praise the ancient world as some kind of pinnacle of civilization. Sure, they produced philosophy and literature that is still relevant today, but in many aspects they were no better than the "barbarians" they opposed.

    I would like to discuss why the professional and efficient Roman Legions were not cesspools of bigots and bullies as they are frequently portrayed by historians.

    I would like to do that.  But I can't.

    While the worst humans were never the majority in any army, the need for soldiers willing to fight and kill on command means that people who use violence for pleasure were (and often still are) tolerated to some degree by military commanders.

    Historic Legionaries once asked a controversial religious figure for some spiritual advice  What he told them boiled down to "Don't be a jerk to the civilians". (Luke 3:14)  I don't think that misogynistic men who wish to reenact their own vision of the Marian Legions would include an admonishment from John the Baptist in their general orders.

    I think the doll tucked in the skirt is just a doll at this point.  Nanase has left the building.

    Is Elliot simply talking back to the GPS, talking to the voices inside the skull, or is there someone else on the phone?

    And yes, Elliot should start wearing cargo pants filled with high end electronics at all times.,,, Or NO!  Even better than cargo pants would be a lab coat with lots of pockets.  I'm sure Tedd has few extra lying around.

    How does a hole in the ceiling explode?

    Quantum mechanics.  Virtual particles and anti-particles that may or may not actually exist in apparently empty space annihilate each other.

    Or there was a combustible substance in the atmosphere that was ignited by a spark.

    Just got back from the deck of a café overlooking the marina.  A light breeze just starting to get cool as the sun was setting.  Grilled Grouper sandwich on a hearty roll.  Girls in bikinis on the boats and in the pool.  A singer performing a collection of classic Motown hits.

    Sometimes life in Florida can be miserable.

    More likely, it'll be a bunch of teenagers being screamed at by Edward. ;)

    There will be no need for Edward to raise his voice.  However, we MAY discover the absolute maximum number of charts Agent Verres can produce in a single lecture.

    I offer the cat my plate with the omelet and a lot of garum (fermented fish sauce) on the side,

    Having lost my eggs, I'm going to need a waffle and an order of Hash Browns.

    Yeah I can't remember what costume it was, but I do remember Grace mentioning Tedd wanting to get one, and then someone asked "For you or for Tedd?" and Grace responding "I'm not sure.", AHA! found it!

    Susan as Zatanna though....Is it worth getting hammered over? ;)

    I don't think Susan would go on a hammer spree if Justin alone had that thought.
    But if the idea got to pre-uniform controversy Tedd, there would be no survivors.  By the time she met Jerry, she would have found a death glare cast in Tedd's general direction to be sufficient.

    And Thank You Scotty for finding that comic. I was thinking the conversation involved Sarah before Painted in Black

    In case you haven't noticed, Grace...

    MEN ARE JERKS!

    But in game terms, he was just better with his weapon (the gun) than you were with your weapon (seduction).
    Both of you used your weapons of choice in an attempt to get the chip.  He wound up with it both times.
    To get better with a gun, you can practice by shooting targets at a gun range.  Is there a such a thing as a seduction range to practice that skill?
