Sunday is my days for videos but I have not yet commented on the end of "The Wire." Those of you have seen it know how good it was. In last Sunday's finale, the rogue Jimmy McNulty was forced into resigning from the force and thus attended his own Baltimore Police Department wake - a tradition shown earlier in the series in which (actual) deceased cops are laid out on a pool table at Kavanaugh's, an Irish cop bar. Be careful - there is graphic language.
The song, we know from earlier episodes, is a tradition at these functions. It is "Body of an American" by the Pogues. Here's the full version:

Yeah, right...The Wire and the Pogues. Fine. Now, speak to the racist Gableman ad. Which side are you on: the side of the racist or the other side? There is no middle ground this time, Rick.
Mike, you really need to lighten up. I'll get to it.
Yeah, lighten up...your S Ct candidate has just thrown a racial bomb and I'm supposed to lighten up. Well, at least I predicted it: "[Esenberg] will also pooh-pooh the obvious racist design of the ad, and call people complaining about it unduly hysterical." Do I have your number or what?
Plaisted - You are really a jerk.
Anony: Yeah, you are calling people names anonymously and I'm the jerk. Got it.
