One of my favorite shows from last year was Life, starring Damien Lewis and, among others, Robin Weigert.  The show is back this year, but Weigert is not.  Donal Logue has taken her place.  Usually I very much like Donal Logue.

But so far, having seen the first episode, he is terrible.  Bring back Weigert.  Holy cow he’s terrible as this sweaty, attitude-filled, dorky, sketchy New Yorker.

First the market falls apart, now they start messing up one of my favorite shows…

After my 2 minute “I’m running so late I have to drive to work” commute, I saw on the sidewalk while walking to campus a chalk outline on the ground and the accompanying text “don’t let this happen to you.”

Now, while I think everyone understands the general meaning, I don’t think anyone really knows the true one.  “In general, try not to be killed” is about all I can get out of it.   Is it killed in a certain way?  Has there been a murder recently on that street (there was a stabbing elsewhere actually over the weekend, but somewhere else).  And what advice does that drawing give on how to avoid becoming a chalk outline?

Any, by the way, chalk outlines don’t “happen” to people.  They happen after people die.
