A novel I am a fan of, Haunted by Chuck Palahniak, spins countless tales that are interwoven. One in particular deals with teen suicides. Sad story. The statistics don't lie. But the parents do...According to national statistics, teens that commit suicide by 'hanging'...something like 65% of them are actually performing self asphyxiation while in the act of ummm...and the parents are ashamed. Mind blowing, isn't it?
In a land of reaction to actions, I am stuck in this mindset today. Reading the trades headline of Harvey Keitel aka Mr. White, stepping into a starring role on CBS' Criminal Minds, I began to think of Mr. Patankin and what led him to react so harshly to the hit show and his abrupt departure. Well, there is always potential for a sequel to Alien Nation.
But alas, now it's Mr. Mantegna. How did Joe steal the role from Mr. White?
One person's loss is another's gain. Choices is the theme today. Where do we go from here?

What the cops never figured out, and what I know now, was that these men would never break, never lie down, never bend over for anybody. Anybody.~
