There was an FSJ in a recent episode. (Two weeks ago? I DVR', so I am not exactly sure....) The FSJ was driven by a priest who was found murdered. It was a bit humorous, in that part of the solution to the crime was because the perpetrator had tried to drive the victim's FSJ back to an original location, but ran out of gas.... The perpetrator left the blue wagoneer in an odd, out of the way neighborhood. (The truck was low on gas, and the perp. didn't dare get caught on video filling it up.) Anyway, the fsj was a specific plot device, and in particular the 'search radius' involved an average of 7-10 mpg, etc, etc. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 09 Aug 2012 16:42:22 -0600 From: Troy Phagan Subject: fsj: Hollywood and FSJ Anybody else watching "The Closer" series on TV?
