Are you fucking KIDDING me with this? It's a MOVIE, people.
I think that this was my "favorite" line --
Donahue said he knows he could watch a DVD copy of the film ("they're making it available to social conservatives"), but he said he's not interested: "If someone tells me that there's a statue of Martin Luther King with an erection receiving oral sex, I don't need to see it."
I read about that in, uh. Um. Oh,

Okay. I just scraped together all of my active brain cells in order to have a mostly coherent telephone conversation. Now don't I expect none of my sentences make sense to for the rest of today.

The National Pie Council picked the WRONG DAY for pie day! It should be March 14!
Maybe the National Pi Council

In other weird pop culture news, Caryn James has gone completely off the deep end. (Folks may remember Caryn from such previous columns as "Why no girls like LotR.")

Well, becaue they aren't mutually exclusive!
No, no -- I was actually serious. I like that.
Also, Nellie Olson!
Announced to my office building via email:
Please do not be alarmed by the activity beginning tomorrow in the vicinity of the Brooklyn Bridge. Beginning tomorrow at 4:00PM, Tuesday, January 23, and continuing on weekdays through January, a movie being made in the vicinity of the Brooklyn Bridge will employ flood lighting, Army and Costal Guard helicopters, mock police and military vehicles, and over 1,000 extras for an evacuation scene.
Ooh, I'd better share that with my office, too, as our conference room looks out over the bridge.
