Hey Wire-Less, ha ha! Get it? Woo me! But yeah, another solid episode. That’s the way to do it Jimmy! Hobos have had the benefit of the doubt for far too long. Other, bullet form quick pick ups

• Separated at birth: WWE Mick Foley and the NA sponsor guy Walon

• Love the call back of oldy but goody quotes: “the game is rigged”, “giving a fuck when it’s not your turn to give a fuck”

• You know, I’ve read that David Simon put in that bit about the EIC at the Sun saying he wants to depict a “Dickensian” life as a jab at himself (because a lot of reviews of season 4 used the old white guy as comparison as well) But I gotta say, I zipped through S4 before even reading a single review and came to the same exact “Dickensian” thought… hell, even the seasons before that it was evident… What I’m trying to say is… I think I’m all that. BOOYA.

• Hah, this line: “I think you need context to seriously examine anything…” comes especially poignant given the recent US democratic campaign controversies surrounding Bill and Hillary Clinton’s quotes taken out of context

• OK, is it just me, but how can Marlo still be THE king of the corners when he can’t intimidate anyone for over a year? I’d think his business would’ve taken a beating because of the heavy surveillance

• Finally, is Bubbs in the 8th level of hell of scrubbing pots or something?
