The Shore portion of the Trib article (god, I miss that paper)

Alan Shore (James Spader),"The Practice." Here's a character who at first was such a jerk, he was almost unwatchable. Over time, he has become a noble, even heroic, jerk. Shore makes fun of poor lawyer Jimmy Berluti (Michael Badalucco) and matter-of-factly propositions paralegal Tara Wilson (Rhona Mitra). It all makes Shore, the center of a spinoff series next season, constantly fun, compelling and, because of his deep-seated flaws, even tragic to watch.


Water polo team now has funding for nationals. Am psyched.

Congratulations and I think I need to send that to a friend of mine who insisted tonight that Alan Shore is the worst character to ever hit television.
