My Final word on Jules, for now... ;)

[Meg Larson]

You know that flick "My Favorite Year" with Mark-Linn Baker and the
irrepressible Petah O' Toole (for those in the dark, it's about a
make-believe live comedy show in the 50's a la "Your Show of Shows" {for
those still in the dark, it was a real live comedy show in the 50s w/ oh
never mind})?  Well one of the writers is a tall strange looking guy who
never says a word, through almost 90 minutes of the film, until all hell
breaks out during a live broadcast; he's watching from the control room and
he's grinning like a fool:  
"Oh God, this makes me happy."

That's how I feel about this list right now.

You guys are too much.
