White Collar and other blatherings

www.ch131.com is finally back in business so I have finally caught up on White Collar.  I've seen some adverse comments about the fact that Neal is deceiving Peter, but although I love their relationship I think it would be far too simplistic and boring if they just became friends and Neal turned honest.  The tension and bite in the show is about the tug between a real genuine respect and friendship on the one hand, and the pull of their respective callings - Peter on the side of the law and justice, Neal deep in his scams and cons - on the other.  Without that, this would be a really light fluffy affair without any meaning or punch.  And I LOVE Mozzy!

Next I need to get on with watching Justified and Castle....

But tonight we are off to our local park once again (third day on a row) this time to see an open air big screening of Madame Butterfly.  I love my park!  Not only does it double as our back garden, but we get free music and events all year round.  How cool is that?
