Oh come on. No Craig Ferguson? “Deconstructing late night TV”? What other talk show featured puppets, a pantomime horse, and a gay robot skeleton? Absolutely the funniest show on late night and I still miss it. 

I’d never eaten Nutella until I went to France in the ‘90s. This was for a choir tour, and the organizers wisely booked us to stay outside of the metro proper for the Paris leg of the trip. It was closer to a native’s experience of the city, I think. Outside our hotel was a crepe stand. Three words: Banana & Nutella…

Thanks for this. We have a 60 year old home on top of a hill, but the grade definitely has sunken near the house. We use diverters on the downspouts, and they’re a big help, but after a huge Minnesota soak, they often can’t keep up. I like the idea of planting thirsty plants!

That Colbert appearance was so Cage-y. I couldn’t figure out if he was doing a bit, coming off as actually pretentious, or if he was messing with Stephen, who was sitting there like a puppy dog, obviously worshipping The Nic.

No kidding! They took the challenge of the foot-wings and instead of dancing around it or hand-waving it with a hidden jetpack in his jockstrap, they fully embraced it. I’m sorry, I too never thought foot-wings would work, but they totally do here.

I will watch this.

I was a paid singer in a local church choir for many years. Each of the paid singers would take turns singing as a cantor at the earlier mass on Sunday. I would carefully watch the calendar to make sure I swapped with someone on a morning after the spring time switch. For some reason, it almost never worked. Either…

Yeah. The Pedro Pascal episode was my favorite of the season so far. But this comes in a close second or third after that. The great thing about the Pascal ep was how incredibly pumped and comfortable he was with all the weird characters he played, and how he really seemed to be enjoying the hell outta himself. Kelce…

“The Bear” is a comedy?

I’ve always hated Red Lobster, because the only one nearby is terrible. You walk in and the place reeks of fish. Portions are small, rubbery, and salty. However, I had to travel to Schaumberg for work, and decided to try the Red Lobster around the corner from the hotel.

Man, we must have been watching different shows last night. I haven’t laughed that hard at an SNL episode in years. Pedro Pascal was game, he was ready, and he slayed it. You can tell the cast was having a blast too because of all the corpsing (I haven’t seen that much corpsing since the Jimmy Fallon days).

That’s what people said when Dems tried to prop up Trumpy candidates in the mid-term primaries. Worked out pretty well for them.

My son was around 4 years old while I was playing “Return to Zork”. He would watch me play, and got utterly terrified by “Two Rings Begin, Three Rings Return”. 

If you do use LinkedIn, a helpful tip is to post regularly. Advice you’ve heard, silly memes, responding to others’ posts. This will keep your name near the top of lists of matches employers use. 

I have a friend who’s been telling me this will affect exactly zero people. No one is currently imprisoned federally for simple possession. And he pointed to another article saying that pardons will not actually remove criminal history from anyone’s record. I keep trying to find counterpoints to his points, but…

And with Tim Roth getting work on She-Hulk again, it looks like Honey Bunny and Pumpkin are seeing a resurgence. 

That was the most heavily-edited interview I’ve ever seen on Colbert. I think they were chopping mid-sentence. The following interview with the Ukrainian Foreign Minister, though, was incredibly excellent and deep. Almost too deep for Stephen.

“Mama? Why is mah jaw so big?”

What? A sympathetic article about a Democrat’s wife? 

I think any of us who have ingested the raw plant or its extracts (by accident, certainly; as the article mentions, not gonna get a buzz off it) have noticed there is a definite flavor there. It can be minty, or a strong flavor all its own. I am not surprised it’s used as a flavoring herb.
