Ugh I'm about to start hunting too, but I'm also considering taking some classes and changing paths a bit. The ever-present question: instant gratification of looking for a shiny new job that will ultimately put me in the same place, or stay put and invest some time and money in a new kind of job I'm not sure I'll

Dibs on Rough Chuckles for a band name.

"We Put the Spring in Springfield". It has a slide-whistle, for crying out loud!

I'll throw in a suggestion for my two personal favorite screwball comedies The Phildelphia Story and Libeled Lady. I watched Libeled Lady for a William Powell/Myrna Loy fix after finished the Thin Man series, but Jean Harlow was a fun surprise for me and steals every scene she's in. The Philadelphia Story is one of

I read the first of Lev Grossman's trilogy, The Magicians. I liked it a lot! Time to get #2 and 3, but I'm trying to control my book purchases, so it's off to the library.

Why oh why does he keep getting acting jobs? The last thing I thought he was reasonably good in was "Holes".

I'd be interested to hear your examples, if you care to share. The only deviation I found off-putting (to put it mildly) was Captain Shakespeare. Otherwise, I thought it was a pretty well done adaptation that tightened up some of the looser plot points.

That's still my highest ambition.

The only one I've read of those is the Sookie Stackhouse series. It was a while ago, but I remember it being way less angsty than TB (which, to be fair, I've only watched in fits and starts). My completely unsolicited advice: the first few are fun, but when you get tired of reading them, STOP. They'll only go downhill

Better than milling about, waiting for this pulpy show to air.

Bull is still a big guy with a heart of gold. He whimpers every time he has to behead someone; beheads them anyway.

Wood you please knock it off with the puns?

That is the most important thing I learned from this article. Kirk's brother directed GotG! Good job, Kirk's brother.

I'm with you on fall food. I can't wait for the first cold snap, which is my personal starting pistol to make butternut squash barley risotto. Mmmmm.

I'm trying to find more creative lunches that I can pack the night before and still have them be reasonably good. I made Thai Pork spring rolls for lunch today. Delicious, but they didn't transport well - the wrappers were loose and pretty much disintegrated as I ate them, I think due to the moisture from the peanut

I can't help it - I really like him, despite his pomposity, frenzied personality/hair, or the fact that he looks like he could give you an STD through sustained eye contact. I loved his stand-up routine for Red Nose Day a few years ago and I guess between that and FSM, I just can't not like him.

Be careful. With that mix, you're likely to create a tumblr super nova. For the love of humanity, do not add MLP: FIM.

His closing track collaboration with MC Hammer "Repo No Mo'" will sell 10s of records!

Where's the screenplay pitch gimmick account? Quick - John McTiernan needs some ideas!
