As Seen On TV

I’ve always been curious if I am the only one around here who watches The West Wing?

Either way, all this hospitalization drama with Justice Rehnquist this week reminds me an awful lot of a West Wing episode from season 5 called “Seperation of Powers” in which Matthew Perry guest stars as a White House lawyer who has to visit an aged and ailing Supreme Court Justice in the hospital to convince him to retire.

I guess old Renny has lasted a few more seasons than the West Wing staff anticipated.
