Woke up this morning

You can't always get what you want...

People are still up in arms about the ending of the Sopranos on HBO, one of the best series on TV. I didn't see it (!), but from what I've heard, it was pitch-perfect. The creator of the series trafficked in the morally ambiguous, the unconventional, the murky. That's what made the show great; that's why fans loved it. And now they're angry because they didn't get what they want? The creator, David Chase, never gave into convention. Why start now with something derivative? And, life is messy. Nothing's rarely settled. It's a cycle, continuous, flowing. And hardly comes with a nice bow with which to neatly wrap things up.
