I like pho for breakfast. I make a big batch of stock on Sunday, prep all the meat and veggies, and then just boil a bowlful every morning. It gets better as the week drags on.

China is like a college freshman- all power/autonomy, no responsibility. The last thing they want is to be the nation other nations ask to intervene.

Unfortunately no; but I'm pretty sure I read it in a MOJO magazine profile of MacGowan eight or so years ago.

Best live show I ever saw was a Japanese band called Green Milk From the Planet Orange. They were billed as "the new wave of progressive rock." What they played was twenty minute long prog tracks, LOUDquietLOUD Pixies style, with the speed and intensity of thrash. They were coked out of their minds, Guitar Wolf…

Who does he think he is, Sam Malone?

Huge talent, one of the rare singers whose singing is "correct" or technically proficient, but also deeply invested with emotion. See also, Kate Bush; but see, Mariah Carey. She's also a hero to me because, without her direct intervention, Shane MacGowan would have died of a heroin overdose years ago. She got him…

Its worth it just for the men's fashion in the first two seasons. Everybody looks like an eighth grader wearing their dad's suit. The ties are so wide- I swear, Donal Logue is a guest star and wears a six inch wide navy tie with white, half dollar polka dots. Ugliest thing I've ever seen.

I've actually been rewatching it, because I have no life, and I'm mildly enthused. More Walter Skinner can't be a bad thing. I agree that most of the last reboot season sucked, minus Darin Morgan's episode and Anderson's acting in the episode where her mom died, but I still want more. Hook it directly to my vein.

This clearly has some "twist:" my theory is that J-Law is the titular elderly mother of Bardem's character, but she's demented and senile and we see everything from her point of view, which is why she looks young. She thinks her son is her husband, and his friends are all strangers and they're going to kill her. The…

Yeah, Hunnam proved he can really bring it. That boardroom scene, where he's defending himself against Angus Macfadyen, was top-notch. Macfadyen might be my new favorite movie villain; such a shit-heel. Hope it doesn't get forgotten this "awards season."

I loved Lost City of Z, and I love Ruth Negga. This is a good thing.

You didn't like Oscar-winner Mumbly McCheekbones? I wanted the other characters to point their wands at his throat and cast "Volumen Vocatus" or something so he would SPEAK UP.

I picture all Make A Wish kids as Cancer Boy from Kids In The Hall.

The trick is to be so focused on looking like you're not scared that you forget to be scared.

Or, when not washing windshields with a squeeze bottle filled with rainwater and crumpled up Walgreens fliers, waiting in line under the 405 overpass for the privilege of shitting in a coffee can.

Everyone wants to think they're too cool to care, but everyone has at least one couple they get invested in; for me, Thurston Moore and Kim Gordon. No shame in it.

After Amy Poehler and Will Arnett, Rhea Perlman and Danny DeVito, and Thurston Moore and Kim Gordon, an Offerman/Mullally breakup would be overkill.

Actually, it's because a steady diet of Chicago-style hot dogs and orange whips causes Chicagoans to "break wind" 83% more often than other Americans; thus, the "Windy City."

Bill: Are you happy now? You couldn't leave well enough alone, could you? Now a perfectly healthy young man with a bright future is dead because of you!

If I had the skillz, I'd make one for NewsRadio. Teach these millennials about the classics.
