Making the Mountie Blush
Last month I dug a couple DVDs out of the $5 bin at Fred Meyer. One was the second volume of The Ray Bradbury Theater. The other was the series finale of Due South.

Apropos of very little, here's another classic exchange:

Chicago PD Detective Ray Vecchio: Oh, yeah, that's why you're turning the color of your uniform.

Vecchio: Ah. here it is. 'Lloyd P. Nash.' You want to know what the 'P' stands for?
Fraser: Is it pertinent?
Vecchio: Not even close.
