Cameron as a blond is starting to grow on me. I wonder if her out-takes from the film are going to come back to haunt her. 
(One advantage of keeping Cameron a blonde is that they could also keep 13 and nobody would mix the two up in the long shots. I'm just saying...)"Jee-sus, it's like Iwo Jima out there" - Roger Sterling on "Mad Men"

| And her argument for not knowing was a well-reasoned one that jived well with House's own needs. If there's anything House respects, it's undefeatable logic. |
1. b. intr. To make sense; to fit in. U.S. Cf. jibe v.
1943 Amer. Speech XVIII. 153/2 Doesn't jive, doesn't make sense. 1955 W. Gaddis Recognitions ii. i. 308 His analyst says he's in love with her for all the neurotic reasons in the book. It don't jive, man. 1973 To our Returned Prisoners of War (Office of U.S. Secretary of Defense) 7 Jive, verb meaning fit in, go with, to make sense.
So while it once it may have been a mistake (and obviously still is to anyone with a classical understanding of written English) decades of mistaken usage have since given "jive" a sort of casual legitimacy in the American lexicon.

I had no idea that the "jive/jibe" thing went back that far. That does make a difference. (Language does evolve - or degenerate - after all.) Amusing that the OED has this while one of the better American dictionaries doesn't. Unfortunately my compact OED is in storage while my home office is being redone and last I checked an on-line subscription was pricey.
Olivia is staying. So now that she's on the team do you think a name will be forthcoming or will we have to keep calling her 13?"Jee-sus, it's like Iwo Jima out there" - Roger Sterling on "Mad Men"
