I have a confession to make:

No, I’m not a Republican in disguise.

The reason you haven’t been hearing from me is because I’ve been watching West Wing starting season one for the last four days. We’re binging out over here, since I can’t bear to look at his ugly face.

It’s a good show although a little contrived. But not as contrived as the show that’s been on since Monday

I'd be doing the same but not available; no netflix here, and no copies. BUT will have it when netflix abandons it and it comes to HBO!!!

ONE of the best:

It's called The West Wing Weekly. I've never listened, but I've heard good things about it. Apparently they do one episode per show episode and include various cast/crew as guests. If you want even more TWW in your life, it might be worth a try.

lyrics to Whatever Gets You Thru The Night

[Verse 1]
Whatever gets you through the night
It's alright, it's alright
It's your money or your life
It's alright, it's alright
Don't need a sword to cut through flowers
Oh no, oh no

Verse 2]
Whatever gets you through your life
It's alright, it's alright
Do it wrong or do it right
It's alright, it's alright
Don't need a watch to waste your time
Oh no, oh no

Bridge]
Hold me darlin', come on listen to me
I won't do you no harm
Trust me darlin' come on listen to me, come on listen to me
Come on listen, listen

[Verse 3]
Whatever gets you to the light
It's alright, it's alright
Out the blue or out of sight
It's alright, it's alright
Don't need a gun to blow your mind
Oh no, oh no

Repeat Bridge

Still miss you, John...
