Six years of Latin? Wow, now I know who to ask when I'm dreaming up spells for HP. ;-)
OMG. You crack me up. I completely agree with you. M is a total waste of space as well!
I can't watch The O.C. live. I have to record it so I can skip through certain parts... Namely the majority with M (and then J, later) in them.
I hadn't actually thought about the No CA aspect, just because of the fact they were in school at the time, but it makes a lot of sense. Of course, Fresno is more central in CA, but the premise still works. It's an awesome idea. Thanks!
You are preaching to the choir! Truthfully, I think it's what attracted me to The OC in the first place - it's the same thing that drew me in to HP.
That is to say, that a kid could be good and decent, and yet still come from a horrible place, and that the people in his life who profess to care from him still miss the mark in so many ways (HP - Dumbledore regarding Harry and and his life with the Dursleys: OC - Ryan's past and how the Cohens respond to both it and him).
Exactly. People have a tendency to bury painful memories, or at least look at them in such a way as to hopefully make them less damaging. Whatever Ryan's filed away will have to be re-dealt with, and that is never a simple or quick process.
Uni-claw, what a term! *g* For six more weeks? You poor thing! :-( Hang in there!
No worries about the dialog - it's fun. Love the term poking the pinata though! I think I'll have to co-opt it! I certainly do it enough! ;-)
