Missing the Paigow (et al.) [sniff]

I want a really big diamond ring. Nothing tasteful. The trouble is that I don't want to get engaged, nor do I want a so-called right-hand ring because the concept of right-hand rings is beyond retarded. What do I do? Buy one to wear on the middle finger of my left hand?

Club his new bitch over the head and take hers?

• At the gym yesterday, someone at the other end of the floor jogging on a treadmill collapsed (not in the best of shape - maybe one of those new year resolution things). Anyway, about three other people in close proximity to him just carried on running regardless without missing a beat. Fortunately the staff were quickly on hand to call the paramedics.

Nice.

What's with all the young people dying these days? Chris Penn, a lawyer at Bloom Hergott, some producer last month. What's going on? We need Tony Almeda to do a work-up on this. Get Chloe involved too.

Well, that was my excuse.

When the guy lying partially in a parking space (and partially by the wall of the parking lot) (no visible blood or vomit) in a relatively busy strip mall at 10:30 am on Sunday did not move for the entire time it took me to eat an apple fritter, I called the LAPD, who transferred me to the paramedics, to whom I reported it.

It was kind of disturbing.

2.5 seconds seems a little hasty.

Why you calling the paramedics just because a guy doesn't move for 3 seconds?

I probably did not move in the entire time it took you to eat that apple fritter on Sunday morning. Perhaps if you had seen me on my couch you would have felt inspired to call LAPD or the paramedics. Some combination of not enough Chaser and way too much vodka Saturday night.

I said he may just be asleep, but he was in a parking lot at the corner of Santa Monica and Sepulveda and the parking lot was pretty much full (other than his space) and it just seemed late and how bad would it be if he were actually dead? You I would poke or yell at or whatever. Homeless guy, not so much.

Next time I will call you instead of the paramedics and you can make the decision.

I've seen people sleep so deeply they look dead. It can be quite unnerving if its 6:00 am and you've gotten up from a restless, fitfull attempt-at-sleep and walked downstairs to get some water and found someone who was hanging out at your place the night before sleeping so soundly you couldn't make out any hint of a diaphram moving up and down. You have that moment of paranoia where you think for a split second about how you'll explain this...

No, thats not right. Question is, how do you get the body to the car? And from there, where?

After a moment of this Weekend at Bernie's fantasy nonsense, you decide there's only one way to ensure the bastard's heart didn't give out, or he's not pulled a John Bonham. You shake his shoulder. He grunts. All good.

OK. Fine. Next time, I call you AND ncs and you all can flip a coin to see who kicks/shakes/yells at the big homeless guy lying in a parking lot in the middle of a bright sunny morning with cars going by and starting to pull into his space and then backing up.

Jeeeez, I donno. The Penn thing's got me baffled. Obese, single, moderately well off guy in Hollywood dies in bed... Stumped I am.

I don't think either of us suggested anything of the sort. I believe I am mainly correct when I assert that we used your post as a jumping off point to talk about whatever it was the we each wanted to talk about. I think a quick call to LAPD and/or paramedics on Sunday morning on my behalf might have been warranted. It certainly felt that way to me.

If you make it afternoon, I'm happy to help.

Oh OK. I felt kind of silly doing it. So I am defensive. Um sorry.
