In 2001. Spade would have been in the fourth year of a popular sitcom (Just Shoot Me) and it was when he released the original Joe Dirt. He’s never been A-list for sure, but that would have probably been his peak on the B.

I hadn’t heard of Field Trip. The reviews and sales blurb makes it appear to be more business (ad) and maybe urban oriented than what’s implied by a Wikipedia-based app, but I don’t have a iPhone. Thanks for the recommendation. I’ll give it a try.

The low failure rate and cost of returns is probably less expensive than having a fulltime staff checking every game. Earlier this holiday season I bought several extension cords from a major retailer. One of them didn’t work, so I took it back to the store and exchanged it for another. Sometimes even new stuff is…

Somerset Place in North Carolina has preserved and reconstructed some of the slave dwellings and have interpretive materials. It’s not much, a lot of things from that period were destroyed or people thought were better forgotten, but there is something a state-supported museum in eastern North Carolina that’s worth vis…

I’m sure there are some my age who would sing into that little mic on their cassette recorder and who would happily make copies for their friends. Technology has just given us a more efficient way to make a better recording and multiple distribution networks. Cyrus’ tune was helped by her fame — the song has been…

It sounds like she wrote it in the car on her ride home and the wonderful thing about modern technology is that instead of it just being something she sings to herself or along with friends, she can upload it to the web and share it with everyone else, including some who could relate.

While there may not have been any love lost between Sorkin and TWoP, he was also associated with a swipe toward Defamer and was taking swings at bloggers in general at the time. There’s a lot of history there.

I find it difficult to believe that in the whole history of organized and professional sports, there has never been an incident involving an off-duty cop and their firearm. Maybe they think that no big event, like a shooting at a bowl game gives the union cover to make the claim, but I’m sure that if you expanded the…

They haven’t revealed it, but I assume she’s his birth mother.

It’s on Hulu and the first episode is streaming for free. After that, it might go on an eight-day delay for free streams. That’s what Fox used to do.

Penn directed the first video for “You Were Meant For Me”, but when the song didn’t get any traction, the label got her to record a more radio-friendly version and the video for that song is the one most of us remember. I remember the first version did get some play on MTV, especially in the middle of the night and…

An undersink, point-of-use, tankless water heater would do the trick.

Every pet friendly hotel in which we’ve ever stayed has written in their policy, usually available on their websites, something along the lines of “for the consideration of other guests, pets must not be left in the room unattended”. Of course the only way hotel staff would know that a dog is unattended is if makes a…

I didn’t see it — I haven’t watched the Today Show in years and even then, never really watched the musical performances — but reading the above description, I assumed it was a hard-break. Without an override, the computer was going to cut away, no matter what the guests or hosts wanted to do.

What is it about Texas and roadside cavity searches of women?

While I agree that conservative media is more protective of their own, I don’t know if that’s all which is at play here. Erick Erickson is a talking head and Megyn Kelly hires them for her show. I’m sure Erickson knows why what Trump said was wrong, but I’m more inclined to credit his reaction and the statement from…

Not that I’ve gone down a rabbit hole, but in an interview, Ron Dante who sang on more than a hundred Archies songs and produced much of the music, says he’d like to get the masters for the forty unreleased tracks which appeared only on the show, so he can release them on his own label.

Not that I’m old, but I remember getting a single of “Sugar, Sugar” printed on a cereal box. I don’t know how many times I played it, more than a few but less than a lot.

It looks from the link that the unnamed source with no claimed connection to the couple told Hollywood Life that Taylor thinks they’re “unromantic” in response to a Life & Style story that her lawyers are drafting a prenup. They’re literally feeding off of each other.

Based on his timeline, it looks like he tweets at celebrity women with the idea of getting his comment in the “conversation” of their tweet. Though it’s packaged negativly, the added publicity from a Jezebel embed probably fits with his marketing plan.
