Big Questions

Would immortality be ethical?

That's an excellent question, isn't it? Feel free to ponder it.

Me, I'll be pondering why Bill Paxton seems insistent on showing the HBO audience every square inch of his skin that isn't part of his genitals. In the penultimate episode of the first season of Big Love, we see him showering while discussing something with second wife Nicki, and thanks to multiple camera angles we see pretty much all of him. We get the point, Bill: You're in pretty good shape for a man your age. I'm as big a fan of televised male nudity as anyone, but can you stop showing us your ass now?

Fortunately, the scene was redeemed when Nicki, leaving the bathroom in a huff, flushed the toilet on her way out.
