Just Al:
On the general subject of Q & A, was there anything in the recent podcast of significance? I no longer drive long distances for business, and find that I don't have the patience to just sit and listen to folks talk.

The only thing I remember from it which was new is that Jim apparently had to deal with a stalker just in the recent years. Which sucks, of course.

<heh>
"Dearly Beloved..."
yadda yadda yadda
"You may air-kiss the bride."

--- Quote ---Well, I obviously disagree with a lot of that (regarding Murphy), so I hope the two get back together again, rather sooner than later. I was a bit afraid before that Jim might have had a Moonlighting problem (i.e. writing an ongoing romance is harder than people getting together), but overall, after thinking it over a lot, it was just the right moment in the story for Murphy to go as a normal mortal and then come back as a more supernatural version of herself later. She had gotten hurt in a way she would never recover from physically, was about to get too old for future kids and in terms of her employment, she was not going to go back to the police force anymore. So, it was either leaving her in an awkward spot in the story or doing something radically new for (or to, ahem) her.

Yes, as Murphy aged she became more unrealistic, so she either had to retire or die.. So Jim killed her off, my question is, if he brings her back as a resurrected supernatural something or other, what is he going to do with her? For me at any rate and I don't think I am alone in this, the character suffered once she was fired from the police force. Oh the shippers loved all the shipping between her and Harry, but she never quite fit in any of the roles he tried to put her in, including him making her into a combination of Wonder Woman and Athena Goddess of Wisdom.. I don't think it will work now, Murphy was best when she was a smart, professional no nonsense cop. She hasn't been for a long time, let Harry mourn for her and let her rest in peace like Susan,Shiro, Morgan, and others, it is part of life.
