Where are the women? All gay men have gal pals, and I do mean ALL. Lauren Weedman is the best thing about this show but she only gets a minute an episode.

Tasha totally got this right. I avoided Lost because I could see right from the get go that as long as it was popular TV executives would keep stringing it along. And does everyone remember all the shows that sprang up after Lost: Surface, The Nine, the one where everyone passed out for a minute, etc. I assume none of…

This could easily apply to The United States of Tara. The second season is the best because it's largely about everyone except Tara.
Then the third and final season crash and burns when it's all about Tara again. Tara Tara Tara.

The 2nd Trio album changed the After the Goldrush lyric from "1970's" to 20th century" so it's hard for me to listen to this song with the stale "1970's" lyric.Patti Smith should have sung: "Look at Mother Nature on the run in the 21st century."

Arbitrary
Five albums in total for an entire career is an impressive feat. Basically if you are making a best of list that excludes Dylan & the Stones then you've gotta assume there's something wrong with the underlying premise.
Mariah Carey & Whitney Houston have the most (yawn). Numbers & rankings are irrelevant…

Really?
Joaquin Phoenix is a mutt. And no amount of makeup or acting is going to make us forget that Catherine Denuve & Brad Pitt are gods who walk among us.

The "Great" books
All those stream of consciousness books: Heart of Darkness, Winesburg Ohio, Mrs. Dalloway. They are so very hard to read- I weep thinking about the struggle, but they do stick with you.
After two months of pain I got through Heart by forcing myself to read the sentences and not worry about…

Hey, I said I liked the endings to both movies. As far as other people's preferences I'll quote Woody Allen about sleeping with his girlfriend's daughter: The heart wants what the heart wants.

2001 / AI
The single biggest complaint of 2001 a Space Odyssey is that it goes off on a crazy tangent at the end. I think in AI Spielberg found an interesting way to pay homage to Kubrick. I like the endings to both movies and think they have similar intriguing odd qualities about them. I'm also surprised that someone…

Moondance First
Moondance is the gateway. It's not my favorite album, but it's got accessible songs. I owned Astral Weeks for two years before I finally "got it." Astral Weeks is easily one of the top five albums of all time and easily the most gorgeous, but to most people raised on 3 minute radio pop tunes it ain't…

Julie & Julia
Here is what bothered me - in the book Julie and Julia, Julie implies that a reporter called her and said that Julia did not like the book. All we have to go on is Julie's word that this ever happened. The whole thing is extremely vague. There is no indication that in real life Julia Child had anything…

Funniest Line
Smoke Inhalation!

Abortion
Did anyone notice how Rachel told the pregnant cheerleader that she "didn't agree with her choice." I practically fell out of my chair then I replayed it to make sure I heard it right.
This show is a mess. But I'll continue to support it if they keep sneaking in some common sense to the teenage market. Having…

My Fav
hey, what about Spoon's "Don't Make Me a Target:"

Over the top
George Michael's "Listen Without Prejudice, Vol.1". Even the title is embarrassing, but as Woody Allen said: The heart wants what the heart wants.
Where's volume 2?
