Is anyone else as bored and disappointed with this... →
From The Seattle Times, a story of a mother and her son:
His lower lip and one ear pierced, Cody dropped out of high school in the ninth grade, two years earlier, when they first gave up their Auburn duplex. He said he couldn’t focus; his mother says he doesn’t mix easily with strangers.
He later signed up for online school through the state’s Insight program, but later,...

After a SciFi (I still cannot bring myself to write SyFy) Marathon Day of NYC: Terror Tornado, Category 6: Day of Destruction, and Meteor Apocalypse, I asked A if she thought different of me after finding out my secret love of bad SciFi B Movies:
A: No. I mean, I know your favorite show is Doctor Who, so it’s to be expected.
Me: DOCTOR WHO IS NOT B MOVIE. IT’S A+++.
A: How about...

The ONLY reason to have TimeWarner cable is so you...
Because you get part one of On Stage’s interview with Bernadette Peters and Elaine Stritch regarding A Little Night Music. Talking about Stritchy forgetting her lines, how they do it, and why Bernadette finally became a ‘replacement’.

Upon coming home, my roommate says
A: A plate of french fries, huh?
Me: Well, I'm not drinking.
A: Oh...
Me: You see, it was a long day and I'm reading Frank Bruni's book, and he has reminded me what I used to do before I drank my feelings away: smother them with Golden Crinkles.
A: So... this is Dinner #1?
Me: Now you're catching on.

Apropos, as I’m still haunted from seeing Bridget Everett’s vagina at Jeffrey and Cole’s Joe’s Pub show Friday night…

We are reading "Dancer from the Dance"
And its celebration, nay, embodiment of that mythical, unknown-to-us, Garden-of-Eden bonhomie, Golden Age of Gay Sex, etc etc etc has us itching to fuck every man we pass on the streets.

This may be the best article I’ve read all year:
Mr. Botticella, 56, delved into the mystery of Thomas’ muffinhood (hint: it has nothing to do with the fork), after Bimbo Bakeries USA bought the brand early last year. At the time, Mr. Botticella was a Bimbo vice president in charge of bakery operations in California.
But he left the company in January, apparently allowing co-workers to...
