Falling Skies

[The Poet]

Don't tell Interpol, but a buddy burned me Season One. I checked it out, yet never really watched it. I just e-mailed him to ask if he caught last night's premiere, or was watching some old Western instead . . . as is his wont.

Should I nudge him more about it, or need I merely let it hang?

What part confuses you? Interpol? Copyright laws prohibit theft of intellectual property, with punishment nearly as severe as those for smoking a CC. Buddy? He's a friend. Burned me Season One? See "Interpol" above. Checked it out? I tried the DVDs to see if my deck would read them. Never watched? Said tries were spot-checks, and I did not view the entire shows. E-mail? It is a relatively recent form of electronic communication. Caught the premiere last night? My question was to ask if he had watched said television cablecast. Watched some old Western? This was to enquire if he had instead opted to spend that time during this premiere's airtime viewing one of his particular favored genres, one which is normally sited in the American West during the time between the Civil War and the turn of that century, involving horses, cattle, and gunplay. His wont? Well, he often wants to do that activity (or lack of same) noted above. Nudge? To repeat my initial enquiry to him regarding the SF show in question, in order to either encourage him to do so, or to at least reply to my query. Let it hang? This was an attempt to elicit responses from those on this board who did see this new season's premiere, or who are more familiar with the program than I am, due to my aforementioned lack of concrete direct experience, and whom may be better able to advise me if I should further pester my "buddy" (cf. above) to devote some of his time to this endeavor, as specified.

Does that enlighten you any, or have I missed the source of your confusion somehow?

LOL, sorry man, I just didnt understand "as is his wont." and "or need I merely let it hang?"
I must not have had propper quantities of caffine in the system at the time.

Not a problem, and in fact I'm glad you took my lengthy tongue-in-cheek reply in the best possible humor, as afterwards I began to fear I'd been a bit too much the @$$hole . . . as is MY wont.

BTW, FYI, my buddy had NOT watched that premiere, and presently has no plans to watch it at all. Shoot, he has 50-year-old episodes of Sugarfoot, Maverick, and Have Gun Will Travel to view.
