OCD Update #3290574a
Ok, my TV OCD is in overdrive as I have documented a few times in the last weeks. First it was Sons of Anarchy, then it was fringer, then it was Life, then NCIS etc. Well, I was reading an article about the mid-season replacements on CBS and it appears they are bringing a show back from the summer called Flashpoint. I do not even remember it, but it is about a police tactical unit and well snipers, guns, and bombs are always going to get my attention. Looked it up and found out it was a Canadian show CBS picked up for the slow time that received really great feedback etc. Of course I have spent the last week seeking out the episodes online and found the first nine or Season 1 but then I found something called Season 2 pre-airs. I think maybe this is still first season stuff that maybe didn’t show everywhere, I am not certain. Nonetheless I watched all 13 episodes. They are all good, first few are definitely “Canadian” in style and appearance. I love Enrico Colantoni in just about everything I have seen him in. Mostly I am having a Mark Harmonesque moment about this Hugh Dillon guy. Oy…
Anyway back to the show…
It gets a bit corny at times and I cannot seem to get past the fact that Amy Joe girl who was the original Pink Power Ranger is one of the snipers but the show gets better as it progresses. It also appears to have gotten more money for production because it begins to look like a really slick CBS CSI type show in the final four episodes. Anyway, worth a watch when it comes back on after the new year.
w00t! Back to the jigsaw puzzle.

I’m glad Mark Harmon got a regular gig. For awhile there I thought the Ted Bundy movie kinda slowed down his career.

Ok, so this is akward and has nothing to do with your post (sorry) but I need some help.
From one of your other posts, you and my wife are similarly built (whooray for both of us!) . Anyway, you conversed with one of your commenters about a bra-maker and my wife is pissed about VS changing their line and wants to find something comfortable. Would you mind mentioning the name of the company again?
Thank you.

The company was Cacique, which is the lingerie division of Lane Bryant.
Do we get to make fun of you now, kidney? Something along the lines of “Does your wife know you’re asking strange women about their lingerie preferences?”

First off: Captcha words are Tron Romance
Kidney: AliceH is as always correct. That particular shopping excursion of mine was quite traumatizing, especially for the sales gal. It is hard to buy a bra when you have a bodacious rack that you didn’t pay for. The paid for ones defy gravity and need only decoration. Hence the selling of bra’s over a C cup with two hooks on the back. HAH! Talk about torque! :) Wish your wife luck.

Laugh away , Alice. If it makes my wife happy, it’s worth it. I did tell her I was going to ask.
Thanks alot Jennifer (and Alice).

Kidney, Soma Intimates also has some very nice bras in larger cup sizes. They have some even larger than DDD. (I also have 38 DDD natural rack and it is really difficult to find comfortable, pretty bras that actually do their job – I can sympathize). Soma is a division of Chico’s- you can get them online or if you know where a Chico’s is located, there is usually one adjacent. Nice lingerie and lounge wear, too.
I also have good luck with Lilyette – super comfortable and supportive, they also have good smooth cups for everyday wear under tighter tops. They also have some minimizers (yeah, it doesn’t sound good to YOU, but for some outfits, they are required). You can get them online at Maidenform.com or BareNecessities.com as well as most large department stores. They are the only brand at a department store that I can consistently fit/wear. Wacoal is a good brand, as well, although more expensive.
BiggerBras.com has some fantastic brands if you really want something super nice. A tad spendy, though. Good luck!
