I had an epic dream last night/this morning in which I was watching the lost episode of TXF wherein Mulder and Scully for-real got it on! It was awesome! And apparently took place in Parsippany. And there was a mountain by PathMark. I don't know. But it was cool! I watched the whole thing on teevee. There were alien terrorists (I have been watching ( Read more... )

First off, the part that has nothing to do with Dar:
