I will take your word for it on her hotness, but she is absolutely unbearable to watch on 24 as the brainless twit. Unbearable.

I imagine it's better with the sound off.

...and while you still can.

Some DJ (DJ Danger Mouse, for those of you keeping score) has taken Jay Z's Black Album and Mixed it with The Beatles' White Album. The result? The Grey Album. An amazing mix of rock and rap that transcends what we usually hear in the form of sampling and sounds way ahead of its time.

Danger Mouse put it together as a tribute and pressed 3,000 copies for friends in the industry who he thought would enjoy it. It has turned into a huge underground hit. Problem is, EMI wants to put an end to it even though Danger Mouse isn't profitting from it. Whatever.

I have it and have listened to it. It is already one of my favorites.

PS - I have a few friends who went out to buy the White Album based on what they heard in the remixes because they were so impressed. (It sounds weird, but a lot of people have zero interest in the Beatles.) I think it's kind of cool that people are using the Grey Album to open their minds about something they wouldn't normally.

PPS - There is also a Brown Album which mixes the Black Album with a bunch of Jazz riffs. I'm still looking for this one.

Interestingly enough, the cock sucking rat bastards at Capitol have never sent me a red fucking cent as they know they don't owe me enough for me to sue the rat sucking cock bastards; they haven't ever sent me an accounting.

Who, if anyone, is going to see The Passion and why or why not?

I will see it, just to see what the "hype" is, though I believe it is not entirely historically accurate.

The preivews looked pretty fucking intense.

They interviewed a group of nuns who were invited to a sneak preview. One was in tears and said she was going to drag everyone she knew to come see this glorious epic event. Another said she loved it even though she didn't think it was technically acurate - or something like that - I should have been paying closer attention.

But then you have to turn the sound back on for Kiefer's voice, which is very sexy. As for Elisha, she has never looked that good on the show, even before she was all covered up in her entry-level government employee suit. Who knew she was that hot? And her hairstyle (for those of you who notice it) is much more flattering in the pictures.

She looked great in Old School. In the film commentary, Luke Wilson says that he's almost always watching himself when he watches his movies. However, during the scene when he wakes up with her after the party, he said his eyes drifted elsewhere.

While channel surfing over the weekend, I stumbled upon something on VH1. Cool, I thought, expecting old footage of... Instead, I got some overweight celebrity reporter. Bummer.

On the bright side, the show did feature Jenna Jameson's tits.

No need to take anyone's word on her hotness.

She is empirically hot. I'd fuck her.

I wouldn't see it in the theater - there are enough yammering freaks at a typical movie here and this one is sure to bring out many many more. I might see it on DVD sometime down the road - I agree, it looks intense. Although I have no desire to line Mel's pockets further.

I heard when they were first filming it that Mel didn't want subtitles. Did he relent on this?

I'm with you - I want to see it but don't particularly want to give Mel my cash. But I'm psyched to see a movie in Aramaic and Latin (though, apparently, most of the merchants and low-level Roman functionaries about would actually have been speaking Greek, which was sort of the "Latin" of the time, but nevermind). What can I say, I stayed up until 2 am to see Incubus (the only film ever made by William Shatner in Esperanto), I'm a language freak. Dunno about subtitles, but they would be helpful since my Latin sucks pretty badly and my aramaic is, er, nonexistent. (Though, if the Latin dialogue is the Jerome Vulgate Latin, I'll know most of it.) Quod scripsi, scripsi!

Re: Bush: TUIMM more than a little bit. Fucking ignorant prig biggot. And, Fugee, I plan to vote for Nader and write to all the applicable other candidates & their national parties and tell them exactly why. By hand. On my nicest monogrammed stationery so they worry they have also pissed me off enough to forego my contributions.

Re: Xmas - in my case, there was a 12/29 court date we were racing to meet, believe it or not. On the other, I worked 8 hours Thanksgiving Day because the inhouse client wanted to review drafts at his leisure over the rest of the weekend and send them to the other side Sunday in preparation for honcho-business guy meetings Monday after the holiday (which I guess qualifies as a "biz guy wants to have it all ready when he comes back from his vacation" situation).

Reasons for working on Christmas

We shut down entirely for the week of Christmas. I got sympathy from coworkers because I came in for a few hours to get a few things done on December 23.

I will cease bitching about my salary for a week or so.

But it don't take much at all to make it worthwhile for a LAWYER to sue, does it?

(Do it for the fun. Do it for the future victims. Just Do It.)

What'd Mel do?

Ugh, that stupid modified page-boy haircut of hers. I know they were going for the "more professional than the hot nanny banging the boss" look, but it sucks on her with her straight hair.

Barely. I think she's in the union, but I wouldn't call it acting.
