And in 100 quotes, they could only muster about 5 for 2 whole seasons [the docks and the paper]. Pitiful. All the rest? Brilliant.

"they could only muster about 5 for 2 whole seasons"

I would have liked more from the docks (Although I am pleased that they had the line about having hands in others' pockets (that clip is on the soundtrack too)).

But, I wouldn't mind under representing the last two years (schools and news). Things became a little too overtly preachy for me. Even so, I'm a big fan of the entire run.

The Wire?

For now, I am too cheap to pay my cable company one penny more.

Silly me. I expect my fiction for free.

Never heard of it. I'll be crawling back under my rock.
