... but during my rewatch after many years, a couple have really stood out... I'm not sure why? 🤷
"The bigger the lie, the more they believe."
"Woe to them that call evil good and good evil."
Guess it's just me.
Random observations:
First, the best show ever… and on each rewatch reveals more… ergo this post… I love this show, but also, maybe too much time on my hands…
I think early on, Omar is using a double barrel shotgun? But he is coming up on his first victims in season 1, I can swear, though the weapon is hidden… it makes the distinctive cocking sound of a pump shotgun. Or maybe I am full of shit, certainly a possibility.
When Omar has his standoff with Brother Mouzone, both with weapons drawn and discussing each other’s hardware not too dissimilar to Montgomery Cliff and John Ireland’s homo-erotic chat in the western classic movie “Rio Grande”. Bro Mo mentions he is using a Walther PPK. Now, being James Bond’s preferred sidearm, one wouldn’t think there would be much need to say much about such a legendary firearm. Anyway, Bro Mo goes on to point out it is a “double action”. Presumably he is letting Omar know that he doesn’t need to cock it before firing? (But maybe this is where Omar says “I keep one in the chamber” and the response from Bro Mo is completely in context?
When, McNulty leans over the guy that Prez shot in the dark and says “it’s a Glock”… now realizing this is the first clue that Prez shot a police.
Any more weapon fun facts to know and/or puzzle over?
Looks like there is a small collar just under the head of the nail keeping it from driving in flush to the plywood? Or is this technically a fastener… so what is the difference between a fastener and a nail, and what applications would not matter if the head was flush?
Come to think of it, seems like some traditional concrete nails might have what looks like a second “head” just below the top head.
Have a basic patio mushroom style heater that the thermocouple seems to have failed on.
I’ve see other of these style heaters that have an access panel of sorts, looks like a cheese wedge, on the backside, just opposite of the front panel controls. Does this access make replacing the thermocouple easier?
