And that meant that a night playing at Los Crazios became less a musical journey and more an attempt to steer a disparate ship through a sticky-floored and carnivalesque series of booze-sodden waves, with only saccharine teen pop, bait R&B, and 80s nostalgia anthems for support.

She articulates this through the wistful, sodden grain of her voice, as well as lyrics that describe desire in the most revolting terms possible ("Pinky promise kisses"; "kisses like pink cotton candy"; "How you'd be over me looking in my eyes when I come/ someone to watch me die").

It took eight episodes to get there, but everything Geralt does in Season 1 leads up to that final shot of him meeting Ciri, and Yennifer's fiery victory over Cahir and the Nilfgaardians at the Battle of Sodden Hill takes place roughly concurrently with Ciri's ongoing flight from Cintra.

Instead, the movie offers a sort of speculative shadow biography of an obscure also-ran who somehow rose from sodden mediocrity (Cheney flunked out of Yale, where he mostly seemed to major in alcohol) to the highest halls of executive power — and did it all, a title card intones, "like a ghost."

How it wound up inhabiting our modem is as much a mystery as everything else having to do with the spirit world, although it probably had something to do with the fact that the modem was ancient and the internet is, generally speaking, a surging tide of sodden medical waste and corroded styrofoam that's forever looking to burst through any available fissure.

After relentless rain washed out all but two hours of play over the previous two days, under-fire Roland Garros organisers said such conditions had not been seen since 1873 as they frantically tried to play catch-up by staging 12 singles matches — instead of just four quarter-finals as is the norm — on day 11 of the sodden championships.

H. Auden, "As I Walked Out One Evening" A shady lane Everybody wants one A shady lane Everybody needs one Oh my God It's everybody's God The worlds collide And all that We want is a shady lane —Stephen Malkmus for Pavement, "Shady Lane" Through our sunless lanes creeps Poverty with her hungry eyes, and Sin with his sodden face follows close behind her.
