Can confirm, Dermot Mulroney just got 84% more attractive to me.  May be biased because I play violin, but in every orchestra I’ve played in since I was a teenager, cello dudes got the most attention.

Now is the time on Sprockets when we mash up cello rep titles with Dermot Mulroney movie titles:

Hello fellow lactose intolerarians! My also-lactose-intolerant brother and I both went literally a decade without drinking milk or eating ice cream before discovering lactose-free milk, after growing up gassy and nauseous in the pro-milk 70s/80s. We saw it in the store and it was like a beam of heavenly light shone

Yeah, I think this has to be qualified with the type of cereal in question.  Hot grain-based cereal?  Could be a go.  But Saturday morning sugar bombfests?  Ugh, just go dry.

You’re history.

I’ve been a fan of Sandra Oh since “Double Happiness” waaaaaay back in the day - it was a minor revelation to see a woman who looked like me in a leading role that didn’t have an accent.  Nice to see her getting some overdue props.

“As part of her aerospace engineering major, the recently awarded SEC Scholar Athlete of the Year is currently in the second semester of a design class called LVD or Launch Vehicle Design where the main project is to construct a rocket. Her group is building a low-earth orbiting rocket that will orbit the earth for

She has a job lined up as an aeronautical engineer when she graduates this spring.  I’d say her career hasn’t begun yet.  Oh, except the job’s with Boeing...

As someone who’s allergic to mosquito bites and a number of commercial repellents, this both pleases me (hooray for an alternative to topical applications that give me burning rashes!) and distresses me (wait I have to listen to Skrillex?).

KINJA’ed and edited and fixed. TAKE THAT CAPTAIN SPLENDID TAKE THAT ALL THE WAY TO THE BANK

...because becoming a celebrity animal in a German zoo worked out so well for Knut?

In my neck of the woods those were Wig Wags and yes, the Curly Wurly is a decent substitute, if substatially less...  substantial.

I’m in Canada and Whatchamacallits haven’t been available for 30+ years.  However, my friends who travel to the US often know me well enough to bring me back a half-dozen or so when they run across them.  God bless those saints.

And hot. And also demonstrated some comic chops.

In this case, I’m kind of glad it was a video, if only so I could hear him slip in and out of voices and accents like nothing. Also in “The Death of Stalin” I thought he bore more than a passing resemblance to Christopher Plummer in “The Sound of Music” (ie was terribly hot in a vintage-style army uniform).

I agree that it loses some of the pulsing forward energy of the original, but I’m impressed how much of the original arrangement is there.  And they wisely kept it short.  

Yeah, I’m surprised at the vitriol for an episode that’s a bit on the fluffy side. I thought it was fine, I liked/related to the lost childhood aspect but I’m in my mid-40s and still desperately clinging to the voices of my stuffed animals in my head.
