 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. |

   No.

Apparently this happened while Cheney was speaking.
 
Given recent reports out of Minnesota, one can only imagine what caused this.
