I think you're missing his point.  This wasn't the British government supplying the Indians with weapons and encouraging them to attack American settlements;  this was private citizens trading guns with the Indians and not giving a shit what the Indians did with them as long as they got their pelts in return.

I get that.  But I doubt the treaty allowed private British citizens to supply arms.

Watched the first couple eps of Luther, and it didn't really hook me. Does it get better? I just find the characters way too over the top. Elba is such a good actor that he can defend the character pretty well, but the main psycho chick is pretty silly.

Today in "yes, really": Joseph Fiennes to play Michael Jackson in 9/11 dramedy

:huh:

Quote
the network is developing a movie about an urban legend involving the late icons fleeing New York City together after the 9/11 attacks. Unable to fly out of the city, Taylor, Jackson, and Brando supposedly attempted to drive home to California from New York, but only made it as far as Ohio.

:huh: :huh:

I read it as Ralph Fiennes.

psycho chick was the main draw for me. I probably wouldn't have continued if not for her.

Greta Garbo does a grand job playing Ide's dream woman...the perfect communist fembot.  :)

Saw the first couple episodes of Colony. Pretty interesting, though they've been coy with the aliens so far. If they turn out to be some government conspiracy to control people I will be very disappointed.

Watched Breaking Bad again. What a superb show even on the second run through.

I thought the first season episodes I caught were kind of draggy but really enjoyed the second season episodes I caught.

The nice looking junkie squeeze probably helped.

When is someone going to start re-airing The Wire?
