People need to stop asking me complicated questions which I don't really know the answer to, because I don't feel like thinking today.

By the way, is anyone else amused by Colbert's ongoing war against bears? The bit last night with the kids and the hunters killed me.

I do want an explanation, though, why bears are on notice, but owls are dead to him . If I didn't just miss an episode, I can't help but flash on something a friend of mine said to me about owls being assholes.

Yahoo! My higher-ups just accepted a deadline for the book I'm working on that's actually feasible. I thought sure they were going to move the deadline date forward a month and tell us to "make the time up somewhere in the process."

If I had the ability to create extra time out of nowhere, that talent would be earning me a significantly higher salary than this job is capable of paying.

Weird:

Latest: Director Terrence Malick withdrew latest film The New World from cinema screens just days after its release because he was convinced it needed more editing. The bizarre recall came just nine days after the historical drama made its debut in U.S. movie houses, but Malick is confident his cuts will be beneficial. The Colin Farrell film, which focuses on the clash between native Americans and English settlers in the seventeenth century, has been cut by the Texan director by 17 minutes. The revised version will be released on January 20th.

Creepy:

Jessica Simpson's estranged husband Nick Lachey is narrowing down his search for a new woman after splitting from the singer last year - he wants a Jessica Alba look-a-like who has bedded fewer than 10 guys. The former 98 Degrees star is on the hunt for his next great love, even though he admits "Jessica is the hottest woman I've ever seen". But speaking to Elle magazine, Lachey reveals he desires a sexy Latina lover. He says, "Jessica Alba's beautiful. So is Eva Mendes." He also has fixed ideas about his next woman's sexual history: "I'm all for 10 (sexual partners) and under, but, of course, as you get older, that number becomes less realistic." Lachey also expects his new lady to understand his love of sports - unlike Simpson - and appreciate his musical career. He adds, "I hope that she'll at least respect my music. If she didn't like it, I could live with that."

That is creepy.

yeah...ick. A woman like that's not gonna drink his kool-aid.

Ick. Ick. Ick.

Lachey = icky.

Creepy:

I saw their show for the first time ever (and only, thank god. I was busy wrapping presents.) They both seem really.... dumb. And utterly clueless.

At first I felt bad for him, totally understood his exasperation with his dumb bride. And then I remembered he volunteered for that position.

I know he wants to keep his media profile high, but he needs a publicist to filter his crap. His only schtick was being not as dumb as Jessica.

Exactly. And now - - it's going to be his creepiness. (He and John Stamos.)
