     Oh Gawd...another Hawkins-esque style thing.  The guy's been on, what, 
less than a month, and he gets a sibling already?  Steve had to wait over
a year to get a sister...Nick had to wait 2-3 years for a brother...why does
tbis guy rate a sibling already?  They're probably gonna try and come up
with another family to replace the Scofields, and obviously Austin is gonna
be the new head-hunk-in-waiting, right behind RKK, so he needs a clan
immediately.  Barf-o-rama.

     More like he'll constantly save her life by going against all the
rules and rack up all the commendations.  If I was a cop and they told
me Bo Brady was gonna be my new partner, I'd demand a transfer.  He is
not partner, he is not cop material, and I sure as hell wouldn't trust
him to watch my back.  But, as usual, he can do no wrong, and will repeatedly
save his damsel-in-distress partner and shoew them that he's a hero.  Puke
city.  I'd like to see him with Willie, and I'd like to see her whip his
butt into shape.  But that's asking too much.

     I'm always willing to write...the problem is after the first paragraph
or so I start foaming at the mouth and screaming at the keyboard and
becoming quite incoherent.  I think a commando raid is our best bet.
