A friend at work gave me a recent LA Times article that has an
interview with Dominic West. He says there are talks about a movie
version of "The Wire," and David Simon was not against the idea. He
said it would have to be a prequel, however. That may give us a clue
as to what happens to Jimmy McNulty.
As virtually every major Star Wars character has said, "I have a bad
feeling about this."
