Friday, February 23rd, 2007So, um, yes. In doing a brief bit of research on Manfred Mann the other day*, it came to my attention that an early incarnation of the group was called “The Mann-Hugg Blues Brothers.” Shortly thereafter it came to my attention that the only thing that could’ve topped this band name would’ve been a side [...]
“Did you eat all the lasagna again?”
Wednesday, February 21st, 2007So after I read this post of Sarah’s, I started thinking about Garfield — specifically how obsessive I was about him as a kid, and how I’d read book after book from cover to cover, over and over, even spending hours drawing every character with different expressions, in different poses. What’s strange, though, is that [...]
tranny-tastic
Monday, February 19th, 2007Dude, seriously: Los Angeles is the second-largest city in the United States, her funds are basically unlimited, and this is the best Britney could come up with? It looks like she wandered into the wig shop by Casa Bonita and asked for “something blonde.” In terms of celebrity meltdowns, this is by far the best [...]
copyright’d!
Friday, February 16th, 2007I just accidentally misspelled crucifixion as “Crucifiction,” and I’m pretty sure I just came up with the name of some retarded band or another. Speaking of retarded bands, it seems Corky is playing some sort of musical exposition in Tulsa. He’s accompanied by a pair of middle-aged twins. Man, did I ever move seven months [...]
Eck the house
Wednesday, February 14th, 2007Happy birthday, James Eckhouse! As Jim Walsh, you should’ve earned some kind of Major Award for not sending your godawful kids to the moon. And one for displaying your kinda grossly hairy shoulders as well.

letdown.
Friday, February 9th, 2007Our goddamn fake Tifaux fucked up on us, and decided that just because we had HD versions of “Serpico,” “Dick,” and half of “Tombstone,” plus roughly nineteen “Teletubbies” episodes, we didn’t have enough room to record the goddamn Auditions retrospective on “Idol” Wednesday night. So I have no pictures. I find myself more sad about [...]
one more night.
Tuesday, February 6th, 2007We’re in the home stretch, people. Tonight was the last night of auditions, which leaves only tomorrow night’s “Best of the Rest” special to go before I can crawl into a hole and whimper until season 7 rolls around. Lots of Other Door action this time around. Good stuff.
brr.
Monday, February 5th, 2007The river is frozen. Long underwear are useless within seconds. I’m running out of clean socks from constantly doubling up on them. Nearly every decision I make now hinges on whether or not one of the choices involves going outside. How the fuck A) did people do this before the advent of central heat, long [...]
an ass out of you and me. mostly me.
Friday, February 2nd, 2007I was sitting on the train yesterday, and there was a guy standing right next to me wearing gloves, and in a relatively short time I managed to convince myself that his hand, the one nearest me, was a prosthesis, and that his entire arm was in fact not real. You can imagine my surprise [...]
