Damn. This is much more expensive than the Taste Test thing
Sorry, boys. I'm out of this one.

Doc! Who's crazier: me or Ann Curry?

Is this an Abrams or Whedon show?
Feels like a Tim Minear show. The tone reminded me a lot of Drive and The Inside.

This bag belongs to Jacob?
Help me out. I don't remember where this comes in in the show.

iTunes
I love that these are available at iTunes. For a pretty decent price I've been able to see all the shorts (or almost all) the last few years.

Hmmmm. Possibly. Have to look into this.

Oh crap! Of course, Heat.

I Got Tix For My Parents
Being computerly unsavvy, my parents asked me to go online and get tix for them for the show. I pulled out 301 section at the United Center in Chicgao while my wife (also working it for them) didn't get any better and 2 or 3 minutes in wasn't able to get tix.

@Green Eggs It wasn't poor hair care products that were the problem in Dif Strokes. Kimberely (at Pearl's suggestion, I think) used rain water caught in a copper pot to wash her hair before the big dance or ball or something.

The Unit is also pretty awesome. You know, for special forces stuff. And, um, plans.

Joe Carnahan? I'm intrigued…
An A-Team movie sounds a little lame. But, I'm kind of interested to see how Joe Carnahan would update it. Narc was pretty interesting. A gritty, dirty A-Team would be kind of fun.

Chris Eigeman Wrote & Directed a Movie?
Is this any good? Trailer doesn't make it look anything like something you would expect Eigeman to make. Doesn't look like there's any sarcasm in the movie.

Am I The Only One…
That thought he was already dead? I couldn't figure out why NPR was doing a tribute yesterday.

Fast Forward
I have to admit. That 18 minute ballet at the end killed me. It just went on foreeeeeevvvvveer. I actually fastforwarded to get past it.

"What kind of clown are you?"
"The crying on the inside kind I guess."

"I will have your ass fired" - Lolla Chicago 2006
When I saw Kanye two years ago at Lollapalooza, the sound was a little off and he began ranting on stage about how "This was his hometown and he was going to make sure the f'ing sound guy was fired." I always thought that made him sound like a dick in front of his
