Friday Miscellania, Part Deux

Sometimes you catch really good writing on television...

I watched Six Degrees last night, and caught this bit of inspired dialogue between Christine and Steve, estranged parents of an adolescent boy, who it seems has an interest in baseball:

Christine: "Can I ask you a question?"
Steve: "Sure..Anything"
Christine: "How important is it for a kid to learn to hit a curveball?"
Steve: Oh, my god...that is the gateway skill to all that is decent and manly. If you can hit a curve, you'll never leave the toilet seat up, and you'll always remember anniversary's".

Well Said!
