Alas Poor Yorick. I Knew Him, Horatio Caine.
The TV signal on my bedroom/office desktop is stuck on one channel. And this channel is A&E. Since I began working from home a month and a half ago, I have become an authority on CSI: Miami, college boxes, Forensic Files, Crossing Jordan and a host of other depressing modern cop shows in syndication. And about every 20 seconds there's an advertisement for the Sopranos, whom the network has just purchased. I have seen it so many times, I may never be able to watch the Sopranos again. But I can watch this:
I work well with music or television on in the background. It's comforting. Like when you leave the radio on for your dog if you're going to be out all day. It can also lead you to discover CSI Miami and the many hilarious fan-made YouTube edits. It's a time-tested formula: David Caruso puts on his glasses, utters a one-liner worthy of a school play, the opening scream from "Won't Get Fooled Again" punctuates the gravity of said one-liner and then leads into the opening sequence. It's almost like the Pythagorean Theorum in terms of reliability. I want to make up my own Horatio Caine one-liner for fun. Play along if you'd like.
Detective: "It looks like Angela's killer was good at covering their tracks, Horatio".
Horatio: "Maybe, but Angela here... isn't good (glasses on) ... at NOT being dead."
Roger Daltrey: "Yeeeeeeoooooooooow!"

Detective: "Her co-workers said she was eating a candy bar.”
Horatio: "So it’s up to us...(glasses on)...to solve the Caramilk secret."
Roger Daltrey: "Yeeeeeeoooooooooow!"
Graeme soooo wins! Although I doubt the Caramilk reference will be "got" by the American audience. (I loved it though...and secretly love CSI as well)
