His girlfriend also got a job scrubbing pots and pans in a diner and she also made $7/hr. They both had to contribute to the household, using no outside money of their own. They barely were able to keep their heads above water. They couldn't afford furniture or clothes and had to go to the "FREE" store, where they actually were able to get furniture and clothing for free, of course it was all second-hand but it was servicable.
Check out the episode. It's on the F/X channel, not FOX and it's usually on around 9 or 10 of the clock. I catch it on different days b/c these cable channels recycle all their shows several times a week.

p.s. i feel we are going towards a social and economic collapse sooner than thought. i think we will see it in our lifetime. Cost of living has gone up dramatically in the last 10 years but wages havent. you could get a nice 750 sqft. apt in wappingers in a nice neighborhood 10 years ago for $600-$700.now the same thing is over $1000+. thats a 30%-40% change in some cases. Most people arent making %30 more than they used to. shit oil ( I know I know) was what liek $9 a barrel in 1997 now its like $59? but oil is a whole nother story. If we just would stop supporting israel...

And thus, the TV show thread ended in a nuclear holocaust.

Lost: This is a really cool show. But its alot like X-files with mysteries i fear will not be dispised until season 8. Still cool ass show. Plot: Group of people survive plan crash and must survive on island. Some people have special powers. The island has weird shit like an invisable dinosaur and perhaps other people. Is it purgatory, aliens, governemnt experiment, or just an island full of crazys. WHO KNOWS
GI Joe Signma 6: Thats right bitches. GI Joe is back in an all new traditional/CGI hybrid cartoon. Have not seen it yet but will. Same crew too inclduing ofcourse Snake Eyes.

The season premeir of Lost was this past Tuesday or Wednesday. They finally blew the hatch last season and finally went in this season. Turns out, down the hatch is some kind of fallout shelter with old style computers and everything. And there is a guy down there that fits into Jacks (the doctor) past. Finally, some headway.

So there is a Sci Fi Movie comign out called called Serenity. This movie came out of a TV show on Sci Fi channel called FIREFLY.
The show was cancelled in teh first season and only has like 14 episodes. I heard from arround the way that the show was good and the DVD sales are what prompted the approval of a film,
So i recorded most of the episodes and have watched a few. Its a good fucking show. Once you get past the overly demonstarted Space with a western theme thing its preatty fucking cool. If the film is like the show it could be good shit.

Adam Baldwin is the man. His character is mad cool. At first i thought you were praising one of the gay Baldwins brothers. Btu i figured it out. Isin't he the same dude that played Animal Mother in Platoon. Hes a bad man

I have not watched these shows though I believe HBO Productions just knows what the fuck their doing.
They take chances and I think they just let the creaters do their thing. Much different from networks or movie studios where the execs get involved and ruin everything. Like every nw show has to have a little kid or trying to squeeze everything into the little box that market research has shown to be successful. HBO ROCKS.
If you consider their bad ass original programming Sopranos, Sex in the city, Deadwood, Rome, etc,
Their bad ass Sports division Championship boxing, Inside the NFL, Bob Costas NOW, Real sports, etc
Their comedy specials
and ofcourse their movies.
HBO is the shit and well worth the price. Sure beats the gell out of Showtime or those other suckers.
