My daughter is psyched for the film, so I suggested that she make a date for this weekend with some of her friends. Because I'm the Dad, I just looked up showtimes where she could be prepped for school tomorrow and was surprised to see that tonight's midnight showing will be on four of this town's sixteen screens.

While a possible hookup may not be out of the question or it may have been an idea, Rihanna could have also stopped by Ashton's because he had good weed.

There's an old clip of Brittany Murphy on Letterman, not too long after her relationship with Kutcher ended, where she joked about the idea.

Though there's flaws in the concept, Person of Interest is a show on CBS about a couple of vigilantes who uses the non-terrorism related information from an Echelon-like web-sniffing program to identify people in danger or who are preparing to commit a crime.

Googling the answers to security questions was how Paris Hilton's Sidekick was "hacked" in '05 and Sarah Palin's Yahoo! mail account was accessed in '08.

If it weren't for the qualifier "necessarily", as in "people don't necessarily accomplish more when left to their own devices", I'd probably quibble with your essay conclusion. After all, the idea that Axl Rose is capable of producing anything better is one hell of a supposition to start.

It was nice of E! to quote a lawyer stating the obvious about the ABC/Sheridan trial.

I haven't seen the video, but using a banana as a phone has been a recurring image throughout cinematic history and it has been a staple of slapstick comedy, especially since the dawn of television.

If you read the post event coverage, it becomes clearer that he means people with inside info to leak or something juicy to say don't have stars and the people whom he considers his peer group and successful people in various industries aren't going to try to earn them. Of course many of the "names" who occasionally…

I'd say go for it, but to do it this year, you'd have to quickly make up for the lost six days.

I was actually thinking of Voyagers! just the other day. I loved the show as a kid and can appreciate the push toward the library at end, but it did get some flak for being named the most violent show on TV (or something like that) with several times as many violent scenes, which of course was a by-product of doing…

A lot of newspapers used to run Doonesbury on the op-ed page and I believe often it's a compromise, like what is happening in this case and with the LA Times.

It was a little abrupt the way the feed ended, but I enjoyed the show.

Instead of having a grin, Scott would raise an eyebrow.

I first became aware of Adam Scott via Parks and his internet following, but unlike Will, I don't think he can be Tom Hanks. I see him more as a nerdy, American Hugh Grant.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Add me to the chorus of people whose kid had never had a soda and rarely got candy or juice, but who had to undergo extensive dental work around age two.

Storybrooke is a town where the Sheriff will pressure a private citizen for ill-gotten phone records, rather than file the paperwork for admissible evidence.

If you click through to the SpoilerTV link for the Fringe set photo, there's some discussion as to how they could get a younger version of Olivia with an older Nina and if you go all the way through to the original Flickr, it's super obvious that it's not Anna Torv, especially in the next image from the stream.…

Though he wouldn't run as a Democrat, I've been talking-up Angus King.
