Here is my promised story about the co-composer of “Afternoon Spray.”

Once evening I got text from a friend saying: “James Redd, do you know who Syd Straw is?”

Which of course is like asking a question about a bear or a pope.

My friend proceeded to tell me that he had recently met her at a dinner party and that she had told a story about her significant other, Boone, who played a tough guy on a television show (Sons of Anarchy?) and kind of had that look when he was out and about in real life so people were constantly challenging him to fights.

Which I knew about first hand since one day I had a meeting with Paul Lukas of Uni Watch about something at the Grandaisy Bakery near the Holland Tunnel. I noticed that Syd Straw was sitting there with some guy in a bowling shirt who seemed to be scowling at me. I told her I recognized her and said hello and she introduced me to her friend Boone.

Finally finished Season 2 of Patriot and honestly thought it was a bit of a slog. Not nearly up to the
Complaints included:
-The need to bring back every S1 minor character for brief and inconsequential cameos.-John turning even more into The Terminator, ignoring multiple major wounds, etc. This was carried over from S1, but was just over the top in S2.-Continued pulled football where you think John/Tom are going to have a moment where they realize what all this is doing to John, but nothing ever comes of it. Nothing.-Why are we supposed to care about John in the end? Because he sings bad twee songs? He is a terrible person, especially terrible to his wife (like actually emotionally abusive).
Is the show just an allegory about American interventionism?

Second sentence should read: Not nearly up to the level of S1 (or at least S1 exhausted everything the show had).

Also, Leslie way more interesting character than John. I want the Leslie Claret show.
