"You can't put a price on the joy of not giving a shit." -Zenkitty

The one she did with H. Jon Benjamin was so incredibly funny.

She's done some pretty great ones, and I still have a lot to get to. Baratunde Thurston. Gary Anthony Williams. Adam Reed. I never wanted her to stop talking to Tom Morello.

I'm currently listening to her conversation with Wayne Brady, and it's been pretty amazing so far.

Let it be noted for the record, Aisha went to High School with JZ.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Really? Aisha seems like a gal I'd like to hang with .

msbelle, Ginger, could you email me your addresses? I'm crafty girl when I have a little downtime, and although I can't make your lives better, I'd like to make and send a little memento or two to maybe give you a moment of zen or something.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I've been accused (AGAIN!) of being part of a cabal and also I've been called a minion. By my coworkers.

That's crazy. One, you aren't the secret cabal type. Two, you'd never consent to be someone else's minion. They're eejits. What they are really saying is, "you are aligned against us, and you're smarter than us, so it's worrying."

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

As an extrovert who lives alone, I love the podcasts. Clark Howard, This American Life, The Nerdist, Tara Brach... anyone else got suggestions? I could always use more.

The Splendid Table with Lynn Rosetto-Kasper. Although you will probably be hungry at the end.

Aisha was but a wee soph. Margaret Cho and Sam Rockwell were also in the same classes with JZ.

Trust my rage

We have played this game before but I love seeing the names of public radio types in print. Most things I just read but I always hear their names in my head.

Also, thee is an adorable baby sleeping by me. Why am I awake,

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Be it noted that I have adored Greg Proops since 1988 when my improv friends and I went to his improv troupe's shows over and over (though I saved my actual crushing for castmate Mike McShane, who had on his bookshelves a Riverside Shakespeare, the original run of Watchmen, and a beat-up paperback of Lenny Bruce's greatest monologues).

Also, Aisha Tyler was nice as pie and had an awesome laugh, even at 14, and the last time I saw her (in a comedy club in the early 90s, milling around the bar at a comedy club while she waited to go onstage and open for the person who was opening for Dana Gould) she was exactly the same, only taller and funnier.

Also, thee is an adorable baby sleeping by me. Why am I awake,

Awwww, drowsy late-night infant parent typos. Cutest typos ever. Also, awwww, sleeping baby.
