My giant DVD collection
I have a huge DVD collection that's always growing - it's the closest thing I have to a hobby, I guess. Sometimes I wonder if the "collect!" impulse is distinct from the "watch movies!" impulse, even though their interconnected like they are. My lone concession to common sense: I've stopped…

Estelle Getty, Let's Begin
Estelle Getty, Look out friend,

It's okay to call Jay Leno "Gay Leno," but not okay to call Natalie Portman "Fatalie Portman?" How about "Natalie Fartman?" Would that have been okay?

Ok, everybody take a deep breath.
