He does look good. Compare Tommy Lee, who's 42.

2. A year or so ago, I was cyberstalking the first guy I ever fell in love with, and I found a relatively recent picture of him. I was shocked at how much he'd aged in the 9 years since I'd last seen him. He was only a year older than I am, but his face had a lot more lines than mine does.

For what he's done to himself, Tommy Lee looks pretty good.

If you want an honest comparison for Lee, compare him to Vince Neil, who's totally gone to seed.

My first serious boyfriend is now bald. When we were dating in high school, his wonderful thick black hair was one of his best features (that, and his cyclist legs). He lost it all sometime in his late 20s. I would weep for him if our second attempt at a relationship, in college, hadn't ended so badly. Instead it gives me some comfort now.

Has anyone continued to watch the Comeback, if for no other reason than it's on after Entourage and there's rarely something else worth watching? I've skipped a few episodes and have changed the channel in the middle of acutely embarrassing scenes, but last night there was finally some payoff.

After Paulie G makes an obnoxious remark that shows him to be the irredeemably contemptible fuckhead that he is, Val punches him in the stomach, causing him to vomit up the alcohol and pizza he's been shoveling down his gullet for the better part of the day.

I clapped and cheered. That woman had to do something to gain some of her cherished "dignity." Of course, because she's Valerie, he vomited ON HER, but it was still a victory. That, and the fact that they followed it her cringe-worth rendition of I Will Survive, were really perfect.

I, like you, have been watching it primarily because there's nothing else on at 9:30 on Sunday. There has been more than one night when I've left to walk the dog early, though.

I know Lisa Kudrow's a good actress, from seeing her in, among other things, The Opposite of Sex. I had also believed she is a funnier person as well. I'm sort of clinging to the hope that her being so unbearably obnoxious on the show is part of a very dark joke, like the end of Hannibal.

But I also cheered when she punched Paulie G. in the gut.

I agree. Also looking pretty good for his age is Duckie (Jon Cryer). I saw him at a silly eighties band show last night. Alas, he was not in Duckie garb or makeup.

Your str8 of the day.

You think he looks good for his age? I think he's one of the homeliest men alive. I will grant you he doesn't look 40, but I also think he looks like one of those stupid cartoon monkeys that German designer was plastering all over t-shirts for young Eurotrash and Japanese girls in the 80s.

With car-wreck fascination I watched part of the Eagles "farewell concert" yesterday afternoon on NBC. It was odd hearing Joe Walsh singing about going to parties sometimes until four and how everybody's so different but he hasn't changed just moments after singing a song about how he's living life one day at a time.

I thought you swallowed? What else are you using as a moisturizer?

Most of my exes are now bald (or at least tonsured). And have pot bellies.

Except for the one who looks exactly the same. He's a musical theater actor in the midwest and is living with a guy named Chad.

I finally have to ask: what is it with young (late teens, early 20s) African American men wearing earrings that look like they came out of my grandma's costume jewelry drawer? I'm not talking about the sports-star-wanna-be 5 carat stud things, I'm talking about big pave knot or flower designs the size of a nickle. The guy on the train this morning was actually wearing a CLIP ON. Seriously, my grandma got one just like it from her Avon lady in about 1962.

And it didn't go very well with his "Thug Life" T-shirt with a rhinestone covered picture of TuPak flipping the bird.

I believe this may be the wrong crowd to ask. I'm not sure that there's anyone left under 30.

Is your hair puffy?

Why is that so many men equate personal maintenance with being a fruitcake or metrosexual? Half my friends look like shit and they all gripe when they hear any of us go to the gym and keep appearances up. Is it wrong to want to remain the same? I don't get these cats I know who decide 35 is time to grow four waist sizes and talk about wide screen televisions and which bar has the best sliders.

What really confuses me is a lot of these slugs have hot wives who still look damn good. I always wonder how they screw these slovenly men.

And what happens to these guys when they get divorced? What sort of woman does a pot bellied, bald 37 year old slug shoot for? What does one call this hopeless creature (an animal identifier like "cougar")? Are these guys just shunned from the tribe and left to whittle away their lives in apartments, amidst beer cans, pizza boxes and a wide screen plasma, like Milhouse's Dad?

FLUFFY, not puffy. The operative word is fluffy.

Which, I'm sure coincidentally, is also another way of saying "festive."
