And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Y'know, Sanibel Island is far from my favorite vacation spot (we're here because this is where my grandmother likes to spend the winter and she's paying our way), but checking the weather back home in Brooklyn makes me really happy to be here. I'm sitting on my balcony in short sleeves and capris enjoying the world's slowest free wireless internet and it is HEAVENLY.

This morning we biked to breakfast and then played in the pool for 2 hours. Now Dylan is napping and at some point I should eat lunch. Oh, and a flock of pelicans just flew by my window. Keen!

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

Swinton's too controversial!

I shall refute your statement by adding additional exclamation marks:

Swinton!!!!

So there!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Possibly Susan Sarandon, too.

Slight ding for the breakup but her status is probably secure.

Are there no men? Maybe George Clooney.

I'm trying to think of writers. Alice Munro definitely. Gaiman? Hmmm. Does he have the lit cred? Within his own demo, yes, but outside of that I wonder.

The J-Lo dress wins for color and fabric. Any other fabric, and it would look horrible to me. But just looking at that color combination makes me happy.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I think Meryl Streep is fast approaching that status. if she is not already there.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I think they lied when they said we were only getting an inch of snow today. Good thing I don't have to leave the house for the rest of the year.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Filmmakers is an interesting area for this because most of the best directors of the last decade are all polarizing and have lots of vocal critics: Tarantino, PTA, Wes Anderson, Coen Bros.

Pixar's kind of close to that status, but I could still make a reasonable case against that wouldn't just rebound on me.

She's definitely there. The only gripe against her early on was her seriousness, but she's developed an excellent case for herself as a comic actress over the years now. In fact, she's probably more seen as a comic actress now. Plus a sterling, private social life and much affection form co-stars and directors.

My only problem with Meryl is that she has a daughter named Mamie Gummer.

Well, she married a man named Gummer. And Mamie was probably her mother's name or something.
