Warning. This first one has strong language. Heard about the Titanic sequel? Perhaps a thriller starring Julie Andrews?

A Programming Note
FYI. If you set your TIVO to record a show called "The 50 Most Unforgettable Plays", please be advised that it is not — repeat, not — a show about the theatre. It is, in actuality, a sports show retrospective. The tip-off is the fact that the show appears on the Fox Sports Network. Just thought you might like to … Read More

Supreme Court Gives Gore’s Oscar To Bush
Heh: In a stunning reversal for the former vice president, the Supreme Court ordered that Al Gore’s Academy Award be given to President Bush. Just days after former Vice President Al Gore received an Academy Award for his global- warming documentary, “An Inconvenient Truth,” the Supreme Court handed Gore a stunning reversal, stripping him of his Oscar and awarding it … Read More

The Nietzche Family Circus
I like this site: it pairs random Family Circle drawings with random Nietzche quotes. Example: "To predict the behavior of ordinary people in advance, you only have to assume that they will always try to escape a disagreeable situation with the smallest possible expenditure of intelligence." Another one: "There are no facts, only interpretations." Okay, one more: Has a woman … Read More

All I’ve added is punctuation: Keep A Chance If George Washington had an iPod, You can make history.This one is hardly promoted —Invisible text …it’s fixed.It is you who choose to go against the world.Two questions I have tho:"Hey, where’ve you been?""Miss me yet?"Forgot, Sorry.Normalized.
Daddy’s Dyin’s Dead
Well, the run is over, and the show was a surprising success. Trailer trash comedies really pack ’em in down here. Saturday night sold out (we turned people away), and even the Sunday matinee had a hefty 160-plus. The play itself is (IMHO) not as entertaining as Del Shores’ "Sordid Lives", and my contrubitions to this particular production were not … Read More
Trial Blogging
The coverage of the Libby trial represents a milestone in the history of blogging. For the first time in a major new event, bloggers are ahead of the mainstream media, as even the Washington Post acknowledges: The perjury trial of I. Lewis Libby Jr., former top aide to Vice President Dick Cheney, has drawn every major news organization in the … Read More
Thud
There’s a lot of pretty amazing video out there on the Internet, but this video is among the most amazing. British skydiver Michael Holmes plummeted 12,000 feet, hitting the ground at 80 mph when his chutes failed to open properly. The camera mounted on his helmet caught the entire event (including his breathless "goodbye" to the world just seconds before … Read More
