Chris Brown has been nominated for two Kids Choice Awards. What is wrong with this world?

We just confused the Stage Management intern. She is wearing a shirt that says "I am Second" from [link]

So I asked if her name is "What". "um, I don't know", Noo, he's on third. "who?" No, he's on first. :: dazed look :: Boss and I thought it was funny. She had NO clue at all.

What do you want me to say? We are doing a show about baseball, and you have "I am Second". I'm only human!!!

OK, a few years ago, some singer put out a series of songs/videos that was telling this soap-opera-worthy story, with a totally convoluted plot and relationships, with a new video coming out with a new part of the story every few weeks. Who was this? I can't remember, and I can't remember enough to figure out what to try to google.

Trapped in the Closet, by R Kelly, Hil?

Yes! Thank you. I was thinking it was Usher, but the only multi-part song I could find for him was Confessions, which was only two parts and nowhere near as weird as I remembered these songs being.

I think of it as "Trapped in the CLAW-sit"

I'll bite. How do you make a hippie paella?

Brown rice and peas cooked in chicken broth with curry powder and saffron. Cook zucchini,tomato and onion cooked together in olive oil with garlic, and a drop of honey. Add shrimp to the veggies when they are almost done and cook for three more minutes. Pour over rice. The combination of shrimp, peas, rice and saffron makes the flavor faintly resemble paella. And the use of brown rice and zucchini is slightly hippie. So as I said, not really paella, and not really hippie food, but good, and sort of a family resemblance to both.

I'm watching through "Trapped in the Closet" now. How many times does this have the line "and I pulled my Beretta out"?

I am drinking my last Magic Beer of the season, which makes me sad.

I've got a bag of frozen edamame balanced on my shoulder. My mom seemed disappointed when I told her that my physical therapist recommended ice rather than heat.
