Wow. Woulda been good. Sadly, now it would have to be done without SMG, I suspect. Even in voice-form only, I don't think she wants Buffy dangling around her neck (with a miniature cross dangling about hers) any more.

It takes oh so little skill or knowledge to write an op-ed for the Times, or get on the editorial board. At least that's sure how it seems. In today's NYT, Gail Collins has a rambling (not a good adjective for a short piece) editorial about (mostly) the Democratic race, the candidates, and the impact of men close to them - Bill and Jeremiah Wright.
She closes with this:
We’re down to a race between the candidate who claims he will make the political process better but has yet to demonstrate exactly how that works, and the woman who claims she’s the only one who’s powerful enough to take on the Republican forces of darkness. Don Quixote vs. Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Both accompanied by their lieutenants — the men who think it’s all about them.I'm always impressed when someone can show ignorance about pop culture at the same time as ignorance about "high" culture. Neither Sancho Panza nor pick one - Rupert Giles, Xander Harris, Angel, Spike, Riley Finn - was self-serving. Those are all perfect examples of loyal squires, ready to lay down their lives at a moment's notice for their leader.
I was starting to get a little concerned that Joss was about to head to Idaho and hole up with bottle water, a shotgun, and a bootleg copy of Captivity. He's off Runaways at the end of the current story arc, he's going to be off AssTarnishing IckMen shortly, and Goners still seems as likely as Duke Nukem Forever.
But in big news from nerd prom...looks like Ripper might make it to fruition before ASH needs a walker after all!
