Now tagless for your comfort.

Did it say that David Beckman is a WMD?

Nope. His wife is.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I thought SkeletalSpice was the WMD.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Did it say that David Beckman is a WMD?

Well, technically it's that his wife's breasts are.

If I survive it, sure! I bet hatching an alien ninja baby would get me on The Colbert Report.

Or at least a cameo in The Tek Jansen Adventures.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Stamps released in China to celebrate the Year of the Pig taste of sweet and sour pork.

When you scratch the front of the stamps, it smells of the popular chinese dish and when the back of the stamp is licked it tastes of the dish too.

The pig on the stamp is kinda cute too....

What is even happening?

I watched it. I thought it seemed a bit forced, but there were definitely laugh-out-loud moments. I don't watch any sitcoms besides HIMYM so maybe I'm just not used to them. I thought the cast had potential. I'll certainly give it my standard three watches before deciding whether to add it to the roster.

I read about it months ago, and the premise made me grin, and I thought it was cool that the got Mick Jagger to pop in, so I meant to watch it, but then forgot, because really (I think) the only sitcoms I care about The Office, and Scrubs.

My mother caught the premiere and really liked it, which gave me hope, because her sitcom tolerance is generally lower than mine, so when they re-ran the premiere last Friday (or Sat) I gave it a chance.

I just saw the pilot, missed last night’s, though. I liked it.

I almost missed last night's. Our TiVo guide said ABC was running "In Case of Emergency," but when we were flipping through the channels, we realized it was actually KoP, instead, so we watched it. It was cute.

Not too spoilery...* The woman who played Michelle Desler on 24 guest-starred, and her first line was something about having had an awful day. I'm not sure if it was an intentional 24 shout-out, but I took it as such, because it tickled to do so.
