Letters to the Editor

Just a bystander
Can readers join in the discussion - too late, I'm in. Let's see - don't hate Steve Earle's version but sure do miss Tom Waits. Where he at?
It looks pretty ominous so far - but I read somewhere that one person finds redemption and my guess after tonight is that it's gonna be Bubbles, of all the characters, Bubs has suffered the most - in my mind at least - and you can tell that underneath all that tragedy is a huge heart - maybe Simon will reward that.
McNulty's happiness was never gonna last, but I'd like at least to know what precipitated this latest fall from grace. Yeah, he's going overboard but I'm on the boat - what a great death spiral - and who's going to take with him? McNulty doesn't care what happens to himself anymore - caution to the wind wheeeeee.
I've worked in a newsroom - and agree - too stiff, not real, artificial caricatures on everyone but Clark and the two other old guys. The punk-assed guy obviously made up his story about the wheel-chair kid and is that really an arc we need? A forgery scandal to take down the current stick-up-the-wazoo editor?
I wouldn't want to be Carcetti for all the governorships in the land.
On the Marlo arc - oh how I hate him - the homicide team will find a way to get on it - by hopping on McNulty's back probably - and will get their evidence, but Michael will be the one to take him down. If Marlo gets Omar first, I'll kill my TV.
It was fun to see Avon and the Russians back in the loop. Yeah, never thougt I'd see the day that Avon looked like the good guy.
