Just a hopeless contrarian, I guess -- but while one must approve any violation of broadcast standards, there still seems to be something vulgar and disrespectful in playing the WTC through at a sitting even once. Much less twice. Just one P&F gives me plenty to chew on for one night. The Goldbergs from top to bottom, okay. Once. But twice through even for them would betray a certain shallowness. Unless it was the first time you'd heard 'em, of course -- and then, anything might be forgiven. _______________________________________________ pen-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.csuchico.edu/mailman/listinfo/pen-l
