The last barber Hec linked to was on the West LA section of that page, Kristen, and I just made an online appointment for Saturday. So it's a deal, until I back out.

And, dammit, I want to participate in some sort of limited game night even if my head is bleeding out my ears.

Maybe the game could involve dimming the lights and cutting your hair.

Paris is a department of France?

Yes. Number 75. It used to be Seine, but then that was broken up to create departments 91-95, and Paris kept the original number (Fr. departments are numbered alphabetically and kids used to have to memorize them back in the day). These numbers are also the first two digits in zip codes.

Obscure music fact of the day: Lots of French rap songs talk about living in the 93 (like area codes are used here), because that is essentially the Paris hood.

Okay, I only watched The IT Crowd because Ple requested it at Yuletide but the episode I just watched ("The Work Outing") was freakin' hilarious.

Sure, Gay! a Gay Musical was good (with songs like: "I'm a Friend of Dorothy" and "I Love Willies") but that wasn't even close to the funniest part.

Also, on the bon/comedy front: we have borrowed 30 Rock S1 from P-Cow and it makes JZ laugh like a highly amused person.

Me also.

It's interesting that critics have argued that it took the show a while to find its footing because it's very funny from the get-go.

(1) I agree it's very funny from the pilot on, and think the CW that it wasn't is a big lie from people who really should know better. Speaking of people who should know better...(2) why hadn't you seen it yet? it's been on for years, won multiple emmys for best comedy? Come on! (3) Parks and Rec this season is the show of the cognoscenti, so look forward to talking about that in 2013!

YOU have it!! I was just looking at the shelf yesterday and couldn't remember who had it. Glad you're both enjoying it.

why hadn't you seen it yet?

Uh, show coeval with toddler. All viewing delayed by years.

You'll see.

The best thing about 30 Rock? It has been available via Netflix streaming. Yay, streaming!

And that's from one of the less hilarious seasons!

Occasionally, when watching The IT Crowd, which I do at least once yearly, at times more, I wind up struck by what a pretty, pretty, pretty man Richard Ayoade is. Because, damn. He's beautiful.

It's worth posting the video how Letterman, Conan, Kimmel and Ferguson all completely and hilariously tore the fuck out of NBC/Leno tonight: [link]
