Hall plans to attend Sunday's Golden Globe awards and the upcoming Screen Actors Guild ceremony with his wife, actress Jennifer Carpenter, who plays his sister on Showtime's "Dexter."

I DID NOT know that.

The news story is because they released today that he is getting treatment for cancer that is in remission.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Am I going to regret Googling Harold Ford, as I have no idea who he is?

He used to be a Rep. from Tennessee, and I think he's kind of a joker.

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

I just had a borderline argument with New Guy. His fuse is short today. But he can't talk about requirements like he knows what they are. He hasn't listened enough.

At my first US job we were short on rules. The president kept miniature bottles of alcohol in her desk. But I'm sure us peons would have been dinged for indulging.

Never been vaguely tempted to drink during the work day. Not a feeling I want to have around co-workers, really. Barely ever drank at company parties, back when I attended them.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Jesse, you don't even read Gawker?

Anyway, I didn't realize Harold Ford was that bad. But he is totally a wealth dropper! [link]

First question: Jets or Giants?

A. I had breakfast about every morning when I am in town, or I should say, several mornings, at the Regency. I see my friends the Tisches. Steve Tisch is my close personal friend. I have been to more Giants games. I spent the holidays, I had lunch over the holidays with Woody Johnson. We met for the first time. I am happy for his team.

I hung out with Catholics in college, and they had a Kegerator in the basement of the parish hall. It boggled me.

Booze is a requirement at most Catholic events, at least in my experience.

EWWWW. AND he didn't even answer the question! He's just always struck me as no substance.

Booze is a requirement at most Catholic events, at least in my experience.

My college had Friday night wine and cheese parties with the Jesuits.

I was raised by old school Methodists. This has been a hindrance in fully engaging in drinking culture

Being half-French with Polish grandparents on the other side, it's surprising I'm not a bigger drinker than I already am.
