On In Honor of "Revenge," A Brief History of TV's Off-Screen Hookups
@Renee King@facebook I didn't know that they had or are dating, but I actually commented and/or tweeted a couple of times during Season 2 that they should have played a couple because it was hard to remember they're playing siblings, when together, their strength dominate every scene.

Obviously, I messed-up my coding and that may have had a hand in at least one skipped word, but so you know, the comment contains two Wiki links.

On In Honor of "Revenge," A Brief History of TV's Off-Screen Hookups
Something I recently learned when I fell down a Wiki hole, Ricky Nelson a biographer that his only true love was a girl he dated for two years in the late 50s, whom their parents discouraged marriage and after a near-fatal abortion, she married an older man. Wikipedia strongly implies that his love was the singer Lorrie Collins, who played Ricky's girlfriend in a couple of episodes and after they broke-up, she married someone twice her age.
Also, since the 70s were skipped, I thought that I'd mention that some of us of a certain age remember watching Sonny and Cher's marriage dissolve on our TV screens.
Good post.

On Don Cornelius, 1936-2012
She looked pretty stoned and they interacted as if both had enjoyed some weed.
Rest in Peace, Don Cornelius - Peace, Love and Soul

Also, a lot of Julia Roberts and pretty much all early to mid Burt Reynolds.

"Princess Bride" and anything Woody Allen or Spike Lee, especially "Get on the Bus". I don't know if it's Andre Braugher, Ossie Davis or what, but that movie is mesmerizing for me.

On Letters From The Gulf, Parts 8 and 9: "BP Dropped Off Crates of Bottled Water"
Who is only allowing them to send one email a day? I possibly could see limiting online time via company resources, but it'd take only a few seconds longer to send multiple pre-written notes.

On 12 Stevie Nicks Lyrics in Order of Their Profundity
Late one night back in the 80s, I dropped some acid and was wandering around campus, when I spotted a vision laying in the grass looking up at a tree. As I drew closer, I could see that she was transfixed on an owl and though I was impaired, I had the distinct impression that the beautiful goddess was Miss Nicks, who was scheduled to play the local arena the next night.
Needless to say, I laid down beside her and though no words were exchanged and neither of us acknowledged the other's presence, we were motionless for what seemed like an hour watching the bird and forever after, that became known as the night that I may have communed with Stevie Nicks.
