Seriously, where's the Have A Drink On Me sparkling white? And wine seems like such a pussy choice. I would have thought they would have gone for a line of liquors.

Tom Waits For Snowman went back to school full-time.

So they're going "on tour" — do the people who buy the tickets go "see them in concert?" "Spend An Evening with The Real Housewives of Whoville?" "An Evening of Questions and Answers with the Real Housewives?" How exactly does one catalog this . . . phenomena?

I've got three guys with beards, two apes, and Superman.

So, Dikachu, what exactly is *code* for an outdoor stage? Having been around the block with the concert industry for the better part of 20 years, who governs it? Code, as you speak of it, is generally regulated by a city, town or municipality — when it's outside, is it regulated, by who, and do those regulations…

Apparently, they were just issuing the high-wind warnings as the winds hit and the stage collapsed.

It was the Compton PD. Compton is a separate municipality.

Snooki reminds me of Mrs. Potatohead. I don't think Mrs. Potatohead can dance too well.

Hey, Madison Square Garden needed that $87 million dollar renovation, and the Knicks and Rangers NEED to sign a few over-the-hill, surgically challenged hopeless vets to maintain their streak of going out of the playoffs in the first round!

It was Homicide and Law & Order - both NBC productions. NYPD was an ABC production.

She's my cherry pie
Cool drink of water
What a sweet surprise

Whire bread sounds like it has some nasty fiber in it. How can you digest that?

Glee vs. Gordon Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares? I'd watch that!

Record companies are notorious for changing artist's names if they don't feel they're commercially appealing — John Cougar rather than John Mellencamp is probably the best example.

What the hell are they bullying her about? That she had a hit song and made a ton of coin?

CT, I worked on part of the insurance claim for my employer, so I had access to some pretty raw data to what happened here. Given who was in power at the time, and being an elected official myself, on a teeny-tiny level compared to the President, I know how strong the urge can be to cover up things that embarrass or…

Well, Lemur's my sister-wife, so she gets first shot, and Jean-Luc Lemur's got the right kind of name, so maybe we'll adopt him, so you'll have to get in line.
