Not sure why everyone is focusing on Coachella. They own (part own?) Bowery Presents so that’s basically every music show in NYC.

The documentary is indeed wonderful (saw it at NYFF.) The relationship between the two is quirky and loving. Carrie is so honest and funny, and cares deeply about her mother’s experience as an aging star, and understands how specific an experience that is. Their houses are next door to one another and Carrie’s decor…

Q magazine, early 2001. Yep, she said it all. Fan backlash at time. Maybe that’s why her management won’t allow her to tweet, rather than cute drunk comments.

They should have a special 'touch me' copy of David and other gorgeous statues. The staff would go around every morning to spray disinfectant.

I love sniffing too-expensive fruit - that passionfruit, perfect peach, imported feijoa, I'm not going to taste them so I'll breathe them in and dream.

The NYC dogs I know either have owners who work from home or who waited until they could afford a dog walker before they adopted a dog. But yeah, there are pee-pad dogs who never learn another way, ones who only get walked before and after work, ones taken out by building staff (at bigger buildings), doggy day care,…

I like loud guitars but usually non-metal, so was thrilled and surprised to discover how diverse an audience can be at a metal concert. Why do you think metal is so popular among South/Central American people?

Yes, he was in Freaks and Geeks, which you must watch. It is good! Like a less dated My So-Called Life minus the boring parents' stories.

That's really weird because the lowest price for single NYC Opera tickets this season is $25, and the lowest price for the more heavily subsidized Metropolitan Opera is $20 (or less for some standing room tickets.) I buy those Met ones and the sound is usually great and sight lines good (bring binoculars!) And since…

Another part of the True Blood male sexy body routine is dehydration - Ryan Kwanten (Jason) has talked about not drinking much liquid on days they're shooting a sex scene. I think body builders also do this to enhance their veins/muscles? So the body people are lusting after is a dehydrated, starved, drugged (in some…

Yep, cast bios and pics available here: [www.tomandlorenzo.com]

You're called Aloysius! No?

Was anyone else at the finale party in NY? It was an exciting experience for non-club-going me. The black reflective unisex bathrooms at XL Club were almost as thrilling as seeing 10 ft Latrice in the flesh! Fun being amongst people who cared about the results. The Sharon screams were deafening.

I wonder when the contestants were told who won. Sharon knew before it aired since she'd organized a big performance for her finale party number (carried in a coffin with mourners led by Amanda Lepore!) Her televised "winning" reaction was more convincing than the Top Model All-Stars winner fake-out, but still, we…

I'd particularly like to hear the evidence of "his" existence - there's a celestial penis in the sky? A noodly appendage, as it were.

That statement came out of nowhere! Firstly, where's the evidence that this "sense of belonging increases"? None is given. Belonging to what - society, the nation state, Gaia? And then "which naturally leads to religion" - uh, what?

Nah, in lots of old buildings (hello, my NY apartment), a single tampon can block the plumbing for the entire building. Paper hand-towels can do the same thing.

Puppy showers! We need to hold newly adopted dog and cat and budgie and bunny showers! I wouldn't mind bringing a cheap toy for them to tear through if there were some furry snuggles in there for me.

You're right - they're just representative stories of people and projects that small micro-finance organizations have worked with in the past. The funder can pick a pale skinned woman and the money can go to a dark skinned man.

If only women had bright red butts like baboons. Human females, so complex, making brains hurt.
