@ManchuCandidate: You mean the scene where Connie liplocked with Don? I was still stunned from the tornado in the suburb that plowed through their house.

@nojo:
If Weiner captured the character of Connie Hilton then I’m pretty sure that he is currently spinning in his grave at an RPM that is equivalent to the rate his grandkids and great grandkids are blowing his money.

ETA: Weiner also has an uncanny ability of merging the zeitgeist of today with the tone of the era. I guess it’s the Nyquil, but I see some similarity to the HC debate.

Now, if only we learn that it was Jimmy Swaggart filming, then the circle will be complete.

@nojo: I've been wounded in the stones by a baseball taking a bad hop, but I didn't know that that precluded me from going to services. Not that I do anyway.

@nojo: As usual, you remain at the forefront of biblical commentary ... the cutting edge ... but I'll cut it off there.

In Carrie's defense, the Bible only frets about dudes spilling seed. But in undertaking important fact-checking for this comment, I came across my newest favorite verse, Deuteronomy 23:1:

He that is wounded in the stones, or hath his privy member cut off, shall not enter into the congregation of the Lord.

Or, if the awesome majesty of King James isn't to your taste, there's always the English Standard Version: "No one whose testicles are crushed or whose male organ is cut off shall enter the assembly of the Lord." Alas, the Conservative Bible remains silent on this important issue of the day. Unless anybody cares to enlighten them. (The Zombie Bible of course remains on the, um, cutting edge of exegesis: "or hath not gorged upon the brains of a human…")
