Sure, he reports all the boring blogging by Wonkette, but when she comes through with a photo of a first daughter nipping out, does he post it here?

No.

Take that, Alexandra Kerry.

Neither Andy Richter or Hoffman can do it. Hoffman I like, but he hasn't shown the ability to play a nut case; he typically is too much the victim. I assume you said Richter as a joke, but cast away Jeffrey.

I thought we agreed that I'd have the day shift and you'd have the night shift. Did I misread the schedule? See you at the gwiffgwiff party.

We're arguing over whether Andy Richter has the gravitas to carry off a comic novel adaptation in a role currently occupied by Will fucking Farrell? We're fighting over who should play opposite Drew Barrymore? I was ABB, Hank. I'm all about incrementalism.

BTW, word to the wise: Your doubt about whether Hoffman can play a subtle nut case tends to indicate you haven't seen Lebowski, which is perhaps the only thing rising to the level of sin on this board. Or that you though he was playing that role straight.

Iron Giant is a great movie, and arguably Vin Diesel's finest, and most nuanced performance to date. Then again, it wasn't much of a stretch.



You are a sick, sick woman.

Remarkably, Flinty found a paid ad for Forces of Nature that didn't feature quotes from a review that my sister-in-law will never live down (before she started TV writing, she was an arts-critic for a major magazine). Just type "Forces of Nature" and "Unabashedly Romantic and Fun" into your friendly neighborhood search engine.

Must I cross post everything?

Apparently this happened while Cheney was speaking.

Given recent reports out of Minnesota, one can only imagine what caused this.

happy news!

Piece 1- there's a Strangers With Candy movie coming out soon!

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0369994/

Piece 2- David Lee Roth is an EMT in NYC. Now that's happy news, unless you happen to be sick and in NYC.
