Let me be str8 for a moment and say that my friend's husband is/was Agent Spender. Apparently Duchovny is very funny IRL. A bit of a card.

Kentucky stomped Florida yesterday in Lexington, and UK alumna Ashley (mmmmmmm) Judd was at the game. The SportsCenter anchor built his bit on the game around her, and when the camera showed a shot of her kissing a student shouting at the camera, said something like "Dude, ASHLEY JUDD is kissing you, and you're mugging for the camera?"

Apropos of Ashley -- Slave, I have to admit that Charlize has picked better movies in the last couple of years. But I still like Ashley better.

Poll (to annoy Bilmore): Who is the best talk show guest you've ever seen? Who is the worst?

Best: Charles Grodin on Letterman. They have the best chemistry of any host/guest combo, ever.

Worst: Tie: Robin Williams and that idiot, Richard Lewis. Both of them are frantic morons who think that everything they say is comedic brilliance when mostly it's just coked up babble.

Worst: Andie McDowell. Saw her on Letterman. Dumb as a rock. Didn't understand a single joke Letterman made, or even understand that they were jokes.

Did you see Posh Spice on The Daily Show way back? She was on with Ginger Spice. And Stewart was being nice and funny and Posh said something like, "I don't know why anyone thinks you're funny." Stewart's expression changed from, "How can I help you plug your crap?" to "Oh, it's on, you talentless brick." He spent the rest of the set making her look like a complete fool and she had no idea he was doing it. Ginger was laughing at her the whole time. It was the best interview he's ever done.

Huh? The dude has indie singer-songwriter chicks writing songs about him. How can his career ever end? It's a fun song, too.

Bree Sharp, "David Duchovny"

It’s Sunday night, I am curled up in my room
The TV light fills my heart like a balloon
I hold it in as best I can
I know I’m just another fan
But I can’t help feeling I could love this secret agent man
I can’t...

Wait anymore for him to discover me
I got it bad for David Duchovny
David Duchovny, why won’t you love me?
Why won’t you love me?

My friends all tell me,
‘Girl you know it’s just a show
But deep within his eyes
I see me wrapped up like a bow
Watching the sky for a sign
The FBI is on my mind
I’m waiting for the day
When my lucky stars align
In the form of...

David Duchovny floating above me
In the alien light of the spaceship of love, I need
David Duchovny hovering above me
American Heathcliff, brooding and comely
David Duchovny, why won’t you love me?
Why won’t you love me?

So smooth and so smart
He’s abducted my heart
And I’m falling apart
From the looks I receive
From those eyes I can’t leave
And you can say I’m naive
But he told me to believe

My bags are packed, I am ready for my flight
Want to put an end to my daydream days and sleepless nights
Sitting like a mindless clone
Wishing he would tap my phone
Just to hear the breath of the man, the myth, the monotone
And I would say...

David Duchovny, why won’t you love me?
Why won’t you love me? Why won’t you love me?
David Duchovny, why won’t you love me?
Why won’t you love me? Why won’t you love me?
David Duchovny I want you to love me
To kiss and to hug me, debrief and debug me
David Duchovny I know you could love me
I’m sweet and I'm cuddly-I'm gonna kill Scully!
David Duchovny, why won't you love me?
Why won't you love me? Why won’t you love me?

I’ll be waiting...
In Nevada...

So Beckham didn't go for the smart Spice? Weird, that.

Stewart is not only funny, but smart as hell (it was fun watching him blow through the board on Celebrity Jeopardy). Posh must have had a death wish that day.

That is a general, vague and conclusory statement. What are the levels of stupidity that are puertorican dice and what makes them stupid?

Best: David Duchovny. Tells great stories; naturally funny. Too bad his career is over.

Worst: Amy Sedaris. I love her to pieces and adore everything she's been in (even those Just Shoot Me episodes), but she's really terrible as a talk show guest.

Lorraine Bracco is fucking hilarious. When a talk show host asked if she and Tony Soprano were ever gonna get together she said, "on the show or in real life?" which came off as quite funny. I have seen her do other funny things. Since Coltrane has had exactly one funny post- thats like Jack ande Diane without the claps= I dont think he is in a position to judge others.

and I cant answer this stupid poll.

I hate myself for knowing this, but she was on with Baby Spice (Emma something), not Ginger. Ginger was out of the group long before Jon Stewart started hosting TDS. As an outable aside, I was Posh Spice one year for Halloween (we had the whole group except for Ginger for the reason mentioned above). Posh was "the bitch" persona in the group. You would know this if you sat through Spice World, studying for your Halloween role. Yeah, we might have overdone it that year. But it was fun shopping at the stripper stores for costumes.

Damnit, it's a beautiful mild day, not a cloud in the sky, the flowers are blooming all over the place and I'm stuck inside working.

They should declare days like this instant holidays, because in a month, we'll be bunkered in our offices hiding out from the heat.

Is Grodin on much anymore? Plugging What?
His act with Letterman, that he was put out, and fed up with Letterman was pretty funny- when Grodin was arguably a star. As his career got worse the act failed for me. Here he was, barely hanging on to a cable talk show, and he's pissed off to be on Letterman?

Note- Nobody picked a Leno appearence.

This is where we bought our topless, and eventually bottomless, waitress for our Texas Hold Em Tourney.

I'm not going to say worst ever because even when he's not funny he's funnier than most, but Eddie Izzard was surprisingly unfunny when he was interviewed on The Daily Show right before his Sexie tour started last year. Interview format might not be his thing I guess.

Fun. I meant stores that carry stripper garb. Not stores that carry strippers. In Dallas, the high end girls go to Electrique Boutique. We also saw a 6'5" rail thin drag queen in stiletto heels trying stuff on there. (S)he made everything look good.

Of course the crowd is likely a little more diverse than usual there the week before Halloween.

I thought four-in-hand knots were for those who wear the same collar as Deion Sanders. Actually, it's the first knot I learned, but I can't stand it now. Although some ties just hate to be half-windsored.

Actually, the four-in-hand is for those who don't want the knot in their necktie to resemble the knot in a string on a balloon. It's also the gentlest knot for the silk.
