1For I decided not to come to you again in painful circumstances. 2For if I inflict pain upon you, then who is there to cheer me except the one pained by me? 3And I wrote as I did* so that when I came I might not be pained by those in whom I should have rejoiced, confident about all of you that my joy is that of all of you. 4For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote to you with many tears, not that you might be pained but that you might know the abundant love I have for you.
The Offender.* 5If anyone has caused pain, he has caused it not to me, but in some measure (not to exaggerate) to all of you. 6This punishment by the majority is enough for such a person, 7so that on the contrary you should forgive and encourage him instead, or else the person may be overwhelmed by excessive pain.a 8Therefore, I urge you to reaffirm your love for him. 9For this is why I wrote, to know your proven character, whether you were obedient in everything.b 10Whomever you forgive anything, so do I. For indeed what I have forgiven, if I have forgiven anything, has been for you in the presence of Christ, 11so that we might not be taken advantage of by Satan, for we are not unaware of his purposes.c
Paul's Anxiety.* 12When I went to Troas for the gospel of Christ, although a door was opened for me in the Lord,d 13* I had no relief in my spirit because I did not find my brother Titus.e So I took leave of them and went on to Macedonia.
B. Paul's Ministry*
Ministers of a New Covenant. 14* But thanks be to God,* who always leads us in triumph in Christ* and manifests through us the odor of the knowledge of him* in every place. 15For we are the aroma of Christ for God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing,f 16to the latter an odor of death that leads to death, to the former an odor of life that leads to life. Who is qualified* for this? 17For we are not like the many who trade on the word of God; but as out of sincerity, indeed as from God and in the presence of God, we speak in Christ.g
* [2:3–4] I wrote as I did: we learn for the first time about the sending of a letter in place of the proposed visit. Paul mentions the letter in passing, but emphasizes his motivation in sending it: to avoid being saddened by them (cf. 1 Cor 2:1), and to help them realize the depth of his love. Another motive will be added in 2 Cor 7:12—to bring to light their own concern for him. With many tears: it has been suggested that we may have all or part of this "tearful letter" somewhere in the Corinthian correspondence, either in 1 Cor 5 (the case of the incestuous man), or in 1 Corinthians as a whole, or in 2 Cor 2:10–13. None of these hypotheses is entirely convincing. See note on 2 Cor 13:1.
* [2:5–11] The nature of the pain (2 Cor 2:5) is unclear, though some believe an individual at Corinth rejected Paul's authority, thereby scandalizing many in the community. In any case, action has been taken, and Paul judges the measures adequate to right the situation (2 Cor 2:6). The follow-up directives he now gives are entirely positive: forgive, encourage, love. Overwhelmed (2 Cor 2:7): a vivid metaphor (literally "swallowed") that Paul employs positively at 2 Cor 5:4 and in 1 Cor 15:54 (2 Cor 2:7). It is often used to describe satanic activity (cf. 1 Pt 5:8); note the reference to Satan here in 2 Cor 2:11.
* [2:12–13] I had no relief: Paul does not explain the reason for his anxiety until he resumes the thread of his narrative at 2 Cor 7:5: he was waiting to hear how the Corinthians would respond to his letter. Since 2 Cor 7:5–16 describes their response in entirely positive terms, we never learn in detail why he found it necessary to defend and justify his change of plans, as in 2 Cor 1:15–24. Was this portion of the letter written before the arrival of Titus with his good news (2 Cor 7:6–7)?
* [2:13] Macedonia: a Roman province in northern Greece.
* [2:14–7:4] This section constitutes a digression within the narrative of the crisis and its resolution (2 Cor 1:12–2:13 and 2 Cor 7:5–16). The main component (2 Cor 2:14–6:10) treats the nature of Paul's ministry and his qualifications for it; this material bears some similarity to the defense of his ministry in chaps. 10–13, but it may well come from a period close to the crisis. This is followed by a supplementary block of material quite different in character and tone (2 Cor 6:14–7:1). These materials may have been brought together into their present position during final editing of the letter; appeals to the Corinthians link them to one another (2 Cor 6:11–13) and lead back to the interrupted narrative (2 Cor 7:2–4).
* [2:14–6:10] The question of Paul's adequacy (2 Cor 2:16; cf. 2 Cor 3:5) and his credentials (2 Cor 3:1–2) has been raised. Paul responds by an extended treatment of the nature of his ministry. It is a ministry of glory (2 Cor 3:7–4:6), of life (2 Cor 4:7–5:10), of reconciliation (2 Cor 5:11–6:10).
* [2:14–16a] The initial statement plunges us abruptly into another train of thought. Paul describes his personal existence and his function as a preacher in two powerful images (2 Cor 2:14) that constitute a prelude to the development to follow.
* [2:14a] Leads us in triumph in Christ: this metaphor of a festive parade in honor of a conquering military hero can suggest either a positive sharing in Christ's triumph or an experience of defeat, being led in captivity and submission (cf. 2 Cor 4:8–11; 1 Cor 4:9). Paul is probably aware of the ambiguity, as he is in the case of the next metaphor.
* [2:14b–16a] The odor of the knowledge of him: incense was commonly used in triumphal processions. The metaphor suggests the gradual diffusion of the knowledge of God through the apostolic preaching. The aroma of Christ: the image shifts from the fragrance Paul diffuses to the aroma that he is. Paul is probably thinking of the "sweet odor" of the sacrifices in the Old Testament (e.g., Gn 8:21; Ex 29:18) and perhaps of the metaphor of wisdom as a sweet odor (Sir 24:15). Death…life: the aroma of Christ that comes to them through Paul is perceived differently by various classes of people. To some his preaching and his life (cf. 1 Cor 1:17–2:6) are perceived as death, and the effect is death for them; others perceive him, despite appearances, as life, and the effect is life for them. This fragrance thus produces a separation and a judgment (cf. the function of the "light" in John's gospel).
* [2:16b–17] Qualified: Paul may be echoing either the self-satisfied claims of other preachers or their charges about Paul's deficiencies. No one is really qualified, but the apostle contrasts himself with those who dilute or falsify the preaching for personal advantage and insists on his totally good conscience: his ministry is from God, and he has exercised it with fidelity and integrity (cf. 2 Cor 3:5–6).
f. [2:15] 4:3; 1 Cor 1:18.

ATLANTA — A federal judge on Monday sentenced a man who pleaded guilty to slapping a crying toddler on an Atlanta-bound flight to serve eight months in federal prison.
Joe Rickey Hundley was accused of using a racial slur to refer to the 19-month-old boy, who's black, and hitting him under the eye as the flight from Minneapolis descended to the Atlanta airport last February. He pleaded guilty in October to simple assault after reaching a plea agreement with prosecutors.
Prosecutors had recommended a sentence of six months in prison, and Hundley reserved his right to argue for a lower sentence. U.S. Magistrate Judge Alan Baverman said he imposed a higher sentence in part because of Hundley's criminal history, which includes a prior assault.
Hundley's lawyer, Marcia Shein, objected to the deviation from the recommendation in the plea agreement and said after the hearing that she believes the sentence is disproportionate.
Before he was sentenced, Hundley told the judge he took full responsibility for his actions and turned to apologize in person to Jessica Bennett, the toddler's mother, who was in the courtroom.
Hundley, who lived in Idaho at the time, was on a Delta flight from Minneapolis to Atlanta on Feb. 8 and was seated in a window seat next to Bennett, who was sitting in the aisle seat and had her 19-month-old son on her lap, according to court filings.
As the plane descended into Atlanta, the child started crying. Hundley leaned over to Bennett and "told her to shut that (N-word) baby up," according to a sworn statement from an FBI agent who investigated the incident. Bennett asked Hundley what he had said, and he leaned in with his face next to hers and said it again, prosecutors have said.
Hundley then slapped the child's face, leaving a scratch below his right eye, the FBI agent's statement says.
Hundley's only son was in a coma in Atlanta after an insulin overdose that was the result of a suspected suicide attempt, Shein has said. Hundley had spent the prior day talking to his ex-wife and doctors after his son was declared brain dead, Shein said, and he booked a last-minute flight to Atlanta so he and his ex-wife could take their son off life support.
"I made the most terrible day in my life much worse for me and for others," Hundley told the judge.
Bennett has said Hundley became increasingly obnoxious and appeared intoxicated during the flight.
Hundley has been attending Alcoholics Anonymous meetings every day since March, is undergoing 15 hours of counseling a week and has been helping others deal with alcohol problems, Shein said. Hundley told the judge that he shouldn't have had any alcohol the day of the incident.
Shein argued that Hundley has taken positive steps to address his alcohol and anger issues and would be better served by house arrest or a halfway house.
Baverman said the case was difficult and emotional for everyone involved. He said he understands the grief Hundley was experienced and applauded the steps he's taken, but called the previous assault and probation for an alcohol-related offense troubling.
"You cannot assault another individual, regardless of how sad or upset, or even how intoxicated or sick, you are," Baverman said.
In addition to the prison sentence, Baverman ordered Hundley to pay Bennett restitution of $105 and to pay a fine of $2,500 to the government. Baverman also ordered Hundley to serve a year of supervised release, undergo alcohol abuse treatment and anger management counseling, and perform 120 hours of community service, preferably in a homeless shelter.
Hundley was not immediately taken into custody and will be allowed to report to prison once he gets an assignment. Shein said it was too early to decide whether to appeal.
Bennett gave an emotional statement to the court before sentencing, saying her son immediately changed from a bright and curious child to one who was guarded and scared. For her part, she suffered fear, anxiety and depression as a result of the attack, she said.
"It is my belief that Mr. Hundley is a bully," Bennett told the judge. "He saw an easy mark in a woman with a young child to unleash his bigotry."
Bennett said after the hearing that she was satisfied by the sentence and didn't believe Hundley's apology was genuine

Six simple rules for commenting on my blog
Most of you are wonderful, smart, funny, and add so much to the discussion that other critics frequently express their envy about the quality of the comments here. It's not an understatement to say you guys are just as important as I am to what makes this place special, and often times more.
But there's been a boom in the overall number of comments lately, and with that has come people who either don't know the rules, or don't care, so after the jump, it's time once again to run through the things you should keep in mind before commenting:
Rule #1: Be nice. This is an opinion blog, and a place where people can and should argue passionately for their point of view. But there's a difference between arguing with passion and arguing with hostility. If you can't find a way to express your viewpoint without insulting other commenters, or getting strident and self-righteous -- say, equating your opinion with fact, and deriding other people for not seeing the truth of your words -- then either tone down your words until they're more respectful to other people, or don't comment.
Rule #2: No spoilers. There are many, many places on-line to read and discuss the latest scoop about who's dying, who's going into a coma, who's about to have sex with a ghost. This is not one of them. Here, we only talk about episodes that have already aired (and only aired here in the States, when it comes to Brit import shows like "Doctor Who"). No discussing stuff you've read on other sites, no discussing previews for upcoming episodes (which have become increasingly spoiler-y in recent years), no discussing the hot rumor that your second cousin's best friend's former roommate heard while hanging at the craft service table on "Private Practice." Anything I consider even vaguely spoiler-y gets deleted. Period.
Rule #3: No talking/asking about shows I haven't blogged about yet. I am only one man. I can only watch and write about so many shows in a given day. Sometimes, it may take me days or even a week to get caught up on certain shows I follow. Sometimes, I may just skip over an episode and come back with a post for the next one. Posting comments in, say, the "Chuck" thread to ask, "When are you going to write about 'House'?" is not helpful. I'll get to it when I get to it. Or I won't. And what's really annoying is when those questions then lead to lengthy discussions in the comments about the show I haven't blogged about yet (and, likely, haven't even watched yet).
Rule #4: No politics. Things got really ugly around here in the run-up to the election, particularly any time I would write about Tina Fey as Sarah Palin and everyone on both sides lost their damn minds. Given that we live in the world, and that many shows deal with current events, it's impossible for politics to never come up as a subject, but if you can't discuss it only as it relates to its use on a show, don't discuss it. Saying you find Fey's Palin impression funny (or not) is fine. Accusing the party you don't endorse of being socialist or fascist is not fine. If you can't relate your point to the show and only to the show, don't do it.
Rule #5: If you can't be bothered to at least skim all the comments yourself, don't comment. This has come up a lot lately in discussions of shows like "Lost" and "Battlestar Galactica," where the comments routinely pass the 100 mark, and sometimes edge close to 200. After the number of comments reaches a certain point, we start getting comments that begin with phrases like, "I don't have time to read all these comments, but has anyone thought about (a question that 12 other people already asked and answered)?" I understand that your time is valuable, and it can be a pain to go through all the previous comments, but it shows real disrespect to the people who already commented, and it's also really irritating for the people who actually do bother to read every comment.
Rule #6. What did I say about being nice? Given that most of the recent violations have been about Rule #1, it bears repeating. This shouldn't be that hard, but sometimes, it is. Talk about the shows, not each other. Period.
I'm going to leave the comment moderation on for the rest of today, and possibly overnight (even though it means everyone's "Lost" comments will have to wait for approval until morning), and then we'll see. I really don't like doing this, but it's either this or I start being much less reserved when it comes to deleting comments I feel are over the line.
So behave, everybody, and we can get back to the fun business of arguing about TV. Cool?

Mucho respect to you for doing it this way. I don't go on to many other sites for that very reason: I don't want to read all the rudeness that goes on.
Nor do I want to know what's going to happen on my fave shows before it happens.
Thanks for keeping your blog a nice place to visit! - 10:09 AM, March 04, 2009

I don't have time to read all these comments, but has anyone thought about.. Kidding ;)
- 10:49 AM, March 04, 2009
Totally agree with the rules, I don't understand why so many come on these sites with a chip on their shoulder and just want to start arguements.
Last year I stopped watching the previews because they showed too much or gave the wrong impression of what will happen. I would rather just watch as things unfold. The no spoiler rule works for me.
LOVE this website, the best place to read and talk about all things TV! - 10:50 AM, March 04, 2009

Part of what makes this site great is the quality and civility of the comments, especially on long running serials like BSG. Thanks for keeping it that way, Alan!

I was debating between the T-1000 finger wag and a Dikembe Mutombo finger wag, and ultimately decided that T-1000 was more on topic, since I still write about "Sarah Connor Chronicles." - 10:59 AM, March 04, 2009

For another week, at least.

I blame the damn Facebook. - 11:13 AM, March 04, 2009
I realize it's more work for you, but I'd be fine with you keeping the moderation up for awhile if it means that the trolls who've been posting random weirdness here lately lose interest and move on.
Of course, I say I'll be fine with it now, but LOST hasn't aired yet, so I might be going a little nuts with impatience later on :-) - 11:20 AM, March 04, 2009
- Nicole said...
Have you noticed whether or not the nasty comments have come more from Anonymous rather than posters with names? It's easier to snark when no one knows who you are and maybe requiring posters to register would reduce the nasty posts.
Just a thought. - 11:26 AM, March 04, 2009
Would it be a violation of Rule #1 if, after someone wrote "I don't have time to read all these comments, but has anyone thought about...", I replied, "I don't have time to read your question, so I'm not going to answer it."? :^)
But seriously folks... thanks for trying to keep it civilized around here. I hate when the signal-to-noise ratio gets too low, as it does in many blogs. You run a good ship around here, and I'm glad you're taking the initiative to keep it that way. - 11:28 AM, March 04, 2009
This'll keep the whiners in check. Just kidding, that's the other site.

If I ever had doubts about why I truly come here, the Dikembe Mutombo references and impersonation in this comment thread have answered them.
Seriously though, way to regulate. I've noticed lots of whiny comments and one genius who I'll take the "fan running on the field" approach to (I'm sure you know who I mean) in recent days, so this post is not all that surprising. I must confess, though, I enjoy it when you respond directly to a whiny fan, so I may miss that a bit... - 12:00 PM, March 04, 2009
- Dan Jameson said...
Alan, when are you going to write about 24?!?
Kidding. Hopefully this post keeps the violators out. I think some of the posts with lengthy comments may dwindle now...as a lot of the comments were back and forths between two commenters arguing points.
That would be a good thing, and hopefully cut down on the "I don't have time to read all the comments..." comments. - 12:01 PM, March 04, 2009

Any time is a good time for a Mutombo impression. Anyone have a good YouTube link for Wilbon doing his? Or the one of the entire Rockets roster doing theirs?
- 12:03 PM, March 04, 2009
Love the sight. I am a loyal reader of both your reviews and the comments. It is a great site for its intelligent, funny, and thought provoking commentary.
I was wondering about a word count on some of the comments. It has happened where one poster has a comment almost as long as your review. Seems excessive, and can turn me off to a discussion. - 12:03 PM, March 04, 2009
- Alan Sepinwall said...
I don't want to discourage other people for being thoughtful and even going on at length. Sometimes, the comments show greater insight than my reviews, and I feel that only adds to the quality of the discussion. If you only want to see me ramble on, you can always feel free to scroll past the longer comments.
- 12:06 PM, March 04, 2009
This is the best place for intelligent TV discussion. Well done, Alan.

other site?
gotta love a site where you can't even discuss the previews at the end of the show (and I'm serious - cause I've stopped watching then too - along with clips that people bring to talk shows. sometimes I skip em, and sometimes I just wait till after the show airs to watch the talk shows. hmmm... I think I have some Calista and Rob Lowe I haven't watched, come to think of it)
Bunch of weird posts in Asian characters last night. Sorry for the 5 edits yesterday (I saw a blogspot blog with a Preview button yesterday - will yours do that? probably too much work for such a rare problem)
I wish the anonymous people would just pick a name and stick it in. So we could call them something. With the amount of trouble it takes to sign up at your real column, I can see not wanting to enforce signup (if that's the case)
Does speculation equal spoiler? I have mixed feelings on that one myself. - 12:10 PM, March 04, 2009
- Pamela Jaye said...
oh no. I just saw the preview button. additional apologies for yesterday.

I'm kind of with Marty, not necessarily on a word count limit, but perhaps urging those who basically post their own reviews to post them elsewhere and then link to them here (some of your posters already do the link thing, so it's not unprecedented)? I don't mind long, insightful comments when they are responding to what you posted or what others have posted, but when it's obviously someone just taking advantage of your site to post their own reviews, it kind of bugs.

Here's a helpful hint to determine if someone else has already left the same comment you want to leave, but you don't want to read 100 posts: use your browser's in-page search functionality.
It's a quick way to see if somebody else has already beaten you to the punch.
Since I'm on the West Coast AND I time-shift, I have to do that a lot. - 12:24 PM, March 04, 2009

Yay Alan!
Civility is a dying art and we need to encourage it. I *especially* appreciate the no politics rule - I am looking at you Treacher, I read you for politics not Alan.
BTW, I know you plan on blogging Cupid, but are you going to do anything else with some of the mid season shows like Kings, Castle or Ted? - 12:40 PM, March 04, 2009
- TimmyD said...
Yeah, Alt-F (or Cmd-F for mac) works wonders for sifting through the comments. Maybe you can give people that tip on your more popular reviews Alan.
- 12:45 PM, March 04, 2009
Bravo. I really enjoy this blog in equal parts for Alan's review and for the intelligent commentary it inspires. I think, overall, it is one of the more polite active blogs on the net, but a little reminder tweak never hurts.
barefootjim - Thanks for that idea. I'm West Coast, too, so this will come in handy. - 12:47 PM, March 04, 2009
You and Maureen Ryan are the best TV journalists and reviewers on the web (I would include Matt Roush but he has disappeared from the web). Your insights and the resulting comments are always topnotch. I am sorry that you have to police your comments - Where is Miss Manners these days?
It helps that I love the shows that you review - Life, Chuck, Burn Notice. - 12:51 PM, March 04, 2009
- Mo Ryan said...
I blame Twitter.
Thanks to Alan for keeping things so enjoyable here. I can tell you from experience, it takes a lot of work behind the scenes.
I could not agree more regarding this point: "But there's a difference between arguing with passion and arguing with hostility."
Many, many people were upset with a recent BSG episode. What was dismaying on my site was not their objections to the episode but the aggression and hostility with which they expressed their views. They had to prove that they were "right." Sorry, but "right" does not equal "loudest." Or "angriest."
Fortunately most people kept their heads. I'd rather turn off comments entirely than let a few very angry/aggressive people ruin it for everyone.
In any case, thanks again for posting these rules. I shall post/steal/link to them myself. - 12:58 PM, March 04, 2009

No need for impressions when you can have the real thing.
Mutombo on a horse (which is apparently DM's idea of what regular life is)is golden. I can't imagine another phrase that would peak my curiosity in the way "Mutombo on a horse" might. - 1:06 PM, March 04, 2009
- Matthew said...
I'm going to leave the comment moderation on for the rest of today, and possibly overnight (even though it means everyone's "Lost" comments will have to wait for approval until morning), and then we'll see.
Which will mean lots annd lots of "I haven't read the comments yet, because they have't been posted, but has anyone thought about..." comments for Lost.
In any case, I completely agree with all the rules.
And thanks for providing us with a place where we can have some intelligent stimulating discussion about television. I realise it is a lot of extra work for you, and it really is appreciated. - 1:08 PM, March 04, 2009

Oh, Michael, thank you for that.

Alan: Given the increasing popularity of your blog, and the consistency with which you post - have you considered maybe trying to commercialize it a little bit? A few banner ads here and there? You'd certainly deserve to make a few bucks from the effort!
- 1:25 PM, March 04, 2009
Thank you for restating all the rules. I hope it will smooth things out quickly.
You have a wonderful blog; I really enjoy reading it. I look forward to commenting more in the soon to be civil future. :)
Echoing someone else: thank you for giving so much of your time and yourself to this blog while we reap the benefits. :)
Cannot wait for Lost commenting. I'll have a question that I hope you see and are able to answer.... - 1:43 PM, March 04, 2009
I have no desire to break the rules or ruin anybody else's posting experience. That said, I do watch the previews, and there are occasional times when I've been tempted to say something just because I can see the discussion going off on a fruitless path. The 2 times it happened (both LOST related, natch.)
1)The episode where Charlotte collapsed at the end, and you (Alan) assumed that she was dead. I saw her in the preview, so I knew she wasn't, and I don't really think they were trying to make us believe that she was - in danger, yes, but not dead. Would that really have upset you to find out?
2)After "316", there was speculation about what the next episode was going to be. Of course, from the preview, you knew it would be All Locke, All the Time. That time, I wound up posting "If you want to know what the next episode is about, go look at the title". But would anybody have been upset if I put up "Next Episode: Locke", which is all I wanted to do?
Again, I understand the reason for the no-spoiler rule, but there are times when I just feel that really basic info couldn't hurt. But I will obey. - 1:46 PM, March 04, 2009
- Alan Sepinwall said...
Devin, in hindsight, those probably would have been okay, and I've likely done similar things in the past. But the preview/spoiler thing is such a slippery slope that I feel more comfortable keeping it as a hard-and-fast rule. I know someone like you can be trusted to use good judgment, but once I open it up even a little, then it becomes a flood, and I wind up being spoiled about things I didn't want to know about.
- 1:51 PM, March 04, 2009
- Stef said...
I love your blog, Alan, and I really commend you for keeping it such a friendly and positive place. I've sent many friends your way to read your great reviews and the many interesting comments. I first found your blog related to LOST, but as others have said you write about so many of my favorite shows that I keep coming back. And, thanks to your suggestions, I've discovered several shows that I wouldn't have watched otherwise. Thanks for all you do!
- 1:59 PM, March 04, 2009
I love your site, but I hope this doesn't mean you expect me to be nice to all the shows you watch or the writers when they write a really crappy episode or claim to be a feminist when their writing goes against that.
- 2:16 PM, March 04, 2009
BTW, love the no spoiler rule. I'm sick of Kristin at E just blabbing away spoilers left and right. She's a dolt sometimes!
- 2:18 PM, March 04, 2009
- Alan Sepinwall said...
Hey, if you've read my reviews of "Studio 60," or "Grey's Anatomy," or most of "Heroes" seasons two and three, you know that the "be nice" rule primarily applies to the other posters, not the shows we discuss.
- 2:18 PM, March 04, 2009
- A-T-G said...
Hey Alan (& Co.),
I read you blog daily (no pressure, Alan!). I rarely comment, as I find the discussion in the comments tends to touch on the points I'd had - and I don't want to be redundant. Sorry to hear there are Newbies who did not bother getting a "feel" for this place before going full-troll.
Double sorry for the additional work this gives you.
Not sorry for the thought of Allan kicking sum bootay! - 3:25 PM, March 04, 2009
Even if some shows are better than others, given how spoil-tastic some shows previews are (ahem, BSG), I think weighing on the side of caution is better as far as spoilers.
But how much is too much caution? Is it fair to report that certain actors will be guest starring in future episodes? (I think that it is fair game and it isn't worth overthinking.)
Today's word verification is "saxedn", which I'm assuming is a contraction for "saxed in." It is defined as what happens when you can't leave your house because Branford Marsalis is playing saxophone outside your door. - 3:30 PM, March 04, 2009
Sorry for the extra work, Alan. Please do know that we do appreciate all your hard work and the white paint on the F5 key on my laptop is worn away looking for your recaps after BSG & Lost.
- 3:59 PM, March 04, 2009
Alan...Are my LOSTS posts OK? I tend to scribble thoughts down between the commercials and then post the whole thing along with my POV on each ep. You haven't had a problem with them in the post, so I hope I'm still good to go here. Thank you.
- 4:05 PM, March 04, 2009
- Alan Sepinwall said...
EOTW, to be honest, I'd prefer something more cohesive than the list of real-time reactions you had to the episode, but I also don't want to start introducing extra rules, and sub-rules and sub-guidelines for posting. The six (really, five) I introduced above seem more than enough for now, though at some point I might reconsider the Anonymous posting thing (since you can create your own handle without having to register or log in).
You have good things to say. Don't stress it too much. The point of all of this is to have fun while we talk about TV. - 4:10 PM, March 04, 2009
You can create a handle without registering? How do you do that?
- 4:36 PM, March 04, 2009
- Alan Sepinwall said...
One of the options under Choose An Identity is Name/URL. Just higlight that and punch in whatever name you want to use. You have to do it every time, but it makes it easier to distinguish all the commenters. Doesn't have to be your real name, just something distinctive.
- 4:40 PM, March 04, 2009
- Michael 8-) said...
Bravo, Alan!
You've become my go-to blog for TV stuff, and the annoying comments that violate the above rules are not only aggravating for some of us to read... but they add to the long list on comment-heavy entries.
Has anyone else noticed this recent surge in "troll" comments on blogs? I've noticed this problem on a few that I follow, and the blogs are on widely divergent topics, too.
It's kinda odd, but most folks are opting for some sort of moderation or registration to comment. - 5:09 PM, March 04, 2009
Alan, I'm sorry this has become necessary (largely because it's a drag on your time to moderate all comments). I just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to create such a great place for people who love TV to talk about it, and for taking the extra time to make sure it stays a great place.
And thank you for not extending the "be nice" rule to this season's "Heroes" or "Grey's Anatomy" :-) - 5:13 PM, March 04, 2009
- dark tyler said...
I think you're all a bit too harsh on this year's 'Grey's Anatomy', to be honest.
Other than that, yay. Anything to bring down the spoiler-trolls. - 5:35 PM, March 04, 2009
Just another thanks to Alan for the forum - I rarely post but the comments here are as interesting as any site.
And you can't go wrong with the civility rule - I'm all for a wide range of opinions/views on the shows, but the "i'm right, and you're an idiot to think otherwise" attitude of some won't be missed in the slightest. - 5:42 PM, March 04, 2009
Reading your blog and the comments have become part of my ritual when I watch some shows now.
Thanks, Alan, for hosting this space online and for the time you spend on it. I welcome the moderation, especially since I am on the west coast, and read every comment before posting (which is exactly why I don't post much). Again, thanks! - 6:55 PM, March 04, 2009
- RSR said...
Another big thanks to Alan!
This is my go-to site almost the minute I finish an episode of a show that you follow. Especially when it comes to Lost because for some reason no one in my dorm watches it and I love the insight I get from reading your reviews and all of the comments.
Even though I don't post very often, I really appreciate you keeping this a spoiler free, friendly place to discuss our favorite topic. Keep up the good work! - 7:19 PM, March 04, 2009
- Unknown said...
Zounds, I only recently broke my "lurker" status and posted on BSG. I believe I was nice! Silliness aside, I've long resisted the "blogesphere" as I tend to think its one of the intertubes' least bright children, yet the humor and intellect of this blog is not only a testament to Alan but to the community this has created. Keep up the good work Alan and fellow tv viewers of the interweb.

This is my go-to site almost the minute I finish an episode of a show that you follow.
There's often something I need to get off my chest, or just see if anyone else felt the same way I did about something.
With Mad Men it was more about the subtleties of the show. I often missed them, so it added a lot to come here and find them pointed up or discussed (or debated)
(I typed this all a few minutes ago, but an errant key combination sent me to Granola Mom's profile and my post to the stratosphere)
Thanks to Alan for keeping things so enjoyable here. I can tell you from experience, it takes a lot of work behind the scenes.
having moderated a chat room, a mailing list, and a message board at one time or other, I know this is true and add my kudos. - 10:08 PM, March 04, 2009
- Zach said...
Not that I think Alan should impose a rule against it, but it also kind of bothers me when people post comments on series they clearly don't like to begin with, especially when they do so repeatedly. It adds nothing to the discussion and just kind of brings everyone down. (For example, a certain commenter in the Chuck thread the other night, and I'm pretty sure I've seen that on the Lost threads too, but I do tend to skim those.)

It's like "Girly" & RSR totally read my mind.
I always come to the site after watching my shows. It's nice to her opinions and discuss what happened.
ps: Denny Duckett is a cylons - 10:29 PM, March 04, 2009
To be a bit redundant...Thanks for all you do with the blog!
I have been reading your blog for a couple of years now, and have picked up some shows (and perhaps Chuck, like i mentioned on that thread from the last episode, and you made my appreciation of deep, dense shows like "The Wire" and "The Sopranos" so much better with your great summaries
Also, thanks for treating us as peers here on the blog. You even answered a question i had concerning the last Wire episode about Slim...you went out of your way to ask a producer of the show for the answer!
Really appreciative and keep up the awesome work! - 12:25 AM, March 05, 2009

John Scalzi has a rather nice corollary to Rule #1: "A good rule of thumb is to comment as if the person to whom you are commenting is standing in front of you, is built like a linebacker, and has both a short temper and excellent legal representation."
And one small suggestion: Would it be possible to turn off the ability to comment anonymously? I don't know if anyone has noticed this, but I think there's a correlation between anonymity and toxicity. - 7:52 AM, March 05, 2009
@Craig: Ah... thank you for mentioning John Scalzi. He became my hero with his Crazy Screechy Monkey post, which is really indispensible advice for anybody (author or otherwise) dealing with trolls online.
If you haven't read the Crazy Screechy Monkey post, run, do not walk, to this link:

- Karen said...
Well, I HAVE read all the comments, and I know that others have already thanked you for being a great blogger AND expressed sympathy for your having to add work to your load for moderation comments, but I'm going to add my name to the list of those saying that.
I know that I did once get slapped for getting cranky about politics on SNL, but I've tried to be a good do-bee ever since. Of course, I know you were angry with me; just disappointed. - 12:09 PM, March 05, 2009
- Kensington said...
I'd like to comment in favor of anonymity. I prefer it because I just don't like the idea of being easily Googled. The compromise is that I stick to the same moniker wherever I go, Kensington, and I behave as if it weren't anonymous. In other news, if I wouldn't post it under my real name, I don't post it under "Kensington."
Not all anonymous posters do so to hide behind craven behavior, and in my experience there's no shortage of obnoxiousness from those who proudly do it under their real names. - 12:22 PM, March 05, 2009
- Kensington said...
Instead of "in other news," I meant to write "in other words."
- 12:23 PM, March 05, 2009
- Craig Ranapia said...
Fair points well made, but I'd note they're made by someone who (consistently) uses a handle -- as opposed to posting as A. Nonymous. I often disagree with you, but you're worth the effort. :) - 4:35 PM, March 05, 2009
Can see why you want to do this, hope it goes well. Moderation is a lesser evil than using one of those screener programs that scan for potentially objectional words. On a blog early this week, a glowing comment on a movie got rejected for containing "objectional content" which was totally mystifying to me. Only thing I could think of what that one or more of the words I used could be taken in a negative way, but I really couldn't figure it out.
- 7:31 PM, March 05, 2009
- Kensington said...
That's a fine distinction, Craig (handles vs. sheer anonymity).
And thanks. - 12:00 AM, March 06, 2009
@Kensington: Not really all that fine of a distinction. Comments are more interesting when you have a sense of the person behind them, of the likes and dislikes behind an opinion, and you can't build that sense if the same name is used by a lot of different people. Nobody wants to read a comment and wonder, "Now wait... is this the Anonymous who likes Heroes, or the one who hates it, or the one who has never seen it before, or is this some new Anonymous I've never read before?"
- 4:19 PM, March 06, 2009
- April said...
Do you have an amazon wishlist or a paypal tipjar? You have really enhanced my enjoyment of The Wire, Mad Men, Deadwood, Freaks and Geeks, (complete with intelligent comments and strong spoiler policy), and it almost feels like I'm "cheating" to get this for free, when if you had a book or sold bubble bath, I'd have thrown you some $$ by now.
If not, then let me again just THANK YOU for spending far more time than you need to, in order to make this aspect of the web a more civilized and intelligent place. - 4:39 PM, March 15, 2010

Story No. 63 – Determination
In 1883, a creative engineer named John Roebling was inspired by an idea to build a spectacular
bridge connecting New York with the Long Island. However bridge building experts throughout the
world thought that this was an impossible feat and told Roebling to forget the idea. It just could not
be done. It was not practical. It had never been done before.
Roebling could not ignore the vision he had in his mind of this bridge. He thought about it all the
time and he knew deep in his heart that it could be done. He just had to share the dream with
someone else. After much discussion and persuasion he managed to convince his son Washington,
an up and coming engineer, that the bridge in fact could be built.
Working together for the first time, the father and son developed concepts of how it could be
accomplished and how the obstacles could be overcome. With great excitement and inspiration,
and the headiness of a wild challenge before them, they hired their crew and began to build their
dream bridge.
The project started well, but when it was only a few months underway a tragic accident on the site
took the life of John Roebling. Washington was injured and left with a certain amount of brain
damage, which resulted in him not being able to walk or talk or even move.
"We told them so."
"Crazy men and their crazy dreams."
"It's foolish to chase wild visions."
Everyone had a negative comment to make and felt that the project should be scrapped since the
Roeblings were the only ones who knew how the bridge could be built. In spite of his handicap
Washington was never discouraged and still had a burning desire to complete the bridge and his
mind was still as sharp as ever.
He tried to inspire and pass on his enthusiasm to some of his friends, but they were too daunted
by the task. As he lay on his bed in his hospital room, with the sunlight streaming through the
windows, a gentle breeze blew the flimsy white curtains apart and he was able to see the sky and
the tops of the trees outside for just a moment.
It seemed that there was a message for him not to give up. Suddenly an idea hit him. All he could
do was move one finger and he decided to make the best use of it. By moving this, he slowly
developed a code of communication with his wife.
He touched his wife's arm with that finger, indicating to her that he wanted her to call the
engineers again. Then he used the same method of tapping her arm to tell the engineers what to do.
It seemed foolish but the project was under way again.
For 13 years Washington tapped out his instructions with his finger on his wife's arm, until the
bridge was finally completed. Today the spectacular Brooklyn Bridge stands in all its glory as a
tribute to the triumph of one man's indomitable spirit and his determination not to be defeated by
circumstances. It is also a tribute to the engineers and their team work, and to their faith in a man
who was considered mad by half the world. It stands too as a tangible monument to the love and
devotion of his wife who for 13 long years patiently decoded the messages of her husband and told
the engineers what to do.
Perhaps this is one of the best examples of a never-say-die attitude that overcomes a terrible
physical handicap and achieves an impossible goal.
Often when we face obstacles in our day-to-day life, our hurdles seem very small in comparison to what many others have to face.
The Brooklyn Bridge shows us that dreams that seem impossible can be realized with determination and persistence, no matter what the odds are. Even the most distant dream can be realized with determination and persistence.

Massachusetts mum of five, Janell Burley Hoffman, gave her 13 year old son Gregory a smart phone for Christmas - along with an 18 point 'rules of engagement' contract.
Here's Janell's terms. What do you think of the idea? Would they work for you?
Dear Gregory
Merry Christmas! You are now the proud owner of an iPhone. Hot Damn! You are a good & responsible 13 year old boy and you deserve this gift. But with the acceptance of this present comes rules and regulations. Please read through the following contract. I hope that you understand it is my job to raise you into a well rounded, healthy young man that can function in the world and coexist with technology, not be ruled by it. Failure to comply with the following list will result in termination of your iPhone ownership.
I love you madly & look forward to sharing several million text messages with you in the days to come.
1. It is my phone. I bought it. I pay for it. I am loaning it to you. Aren't I the greatest?
2. I will always know the password.
3. If it rings, answer it. It is a phone. Say hello, use your manners. Do not ever ignore a phone call if the screen reads "Mom" or "Dad". Not ever.
4. Hand the phone to one of your parents promptly at 7:30pm every school night & every weekend night at 9:00pm. It will be shut off for the night and turned on again at 7:30am. If you would not make a call to someone's land line, wherein their parents may answer first, then do not call or text. Listen to those instincts and respect other families like we would like to be respected.
5. It does not go to school with you. Have a conversation with the people you text in person. It's a life skill. *Half days, field trips and after school activities will require special consideration.
6. If it falls into the toilet, smashes on the ground, or vanishes into thin air, you are responsible for the replacement costs or repairs. Mow a lawn, babysit, stash some birthday money. It will happen, you should be prepared.
7. Do not use this technology to lie, fool, or deceive another human being. Do not involve yourself in conversations that are hurtful to others. Be a good friend first or stay the hell out of the crossfire.
8. Do not text, email, or say anything through this device you would not say in person.
9. Do not text, email, or say anything to someone that you would not say out loud with their parents in the room. Censor yourself.
10. No porn. Search the web for information you would openly share with me. If you have a question about anything, ask a person ? preferably me or your father.
11. Turn it off, silence it, put it away in public. Especially in a restaurant, at the movies, or while speaking with another human being. You are not a rude person; do not allow the iPhone to change that.
12. Do not send or receive pictures of your private parts or anyone else's private parts. Don't laugh. Someday you will be tempted to do this despite your high intelligence. It is risky and could ruin your teenage/college/adult life. It is always a bad idea. Cyberspace is vast and more powerful than you. And it is hard to make anything of this magnitude disappear — including a bad reputation.
13. Don't take a zillion pictures and videos. There is no need to document everything. Live your experiences. They will be stored in your memory for eternity.
14. Leave your phone home sometimes and feel safe and secure in that decision. It is not alive or an extension of you. Learn to live without it. Be bigger and more powerful than FOMO — fear of missing out.
15. Download music that is new or classic or different than the millions of your peers that listen to the same exact stuff. Your generation has access to music like never before in history. Take advantage of that gift. Expand your horizons.
16. Play a game with words or puzzles or brain teasers every now and then.
17. Keep your eyes up. See the world happening around you. Stare out a window. Listen to the birds. Take a walk. Talk to a stranger. Wonder without googling.
18. You will mess up. I will take away your phone. We will sit down and talk about it. We will start over again. You & I, we are always learning. I am on your team. We are in this together.
It is my hope that you can agree to these terms. Most of the lessons listed here do not just apply to the iPhone, but to life. You are growing up in a fast and ever changing world. It is exciting and enticing. Keep it simple every chance you get. Trust your powerful mind and giant heart above any machine. I love you. I hope you enjoy your awesome new iPhone. Merry Christmas!
