  • Measure Q Fact Sheet

  • Randomly…

    Here’s something you don’t see every day. Jessica Stilwell did her Georgetown Thesis on Television Without Pity. 118 pages of TWoP discussion. Wow. I have been quoted in a thesis. [Thanks, Heather, for the link] Jennifer writes: Given that I’ve been meaning to write for eons, I fear that this will be longer than it…

  • dear pamlea ribon…

    Someday this story will be about you. From today’s Associated Press: LONDON (AP) — A draft copy of the first Harry Potter adventure which incorrectly identified author J.K. Rowling sold at auction for $2,642, the auctioneer said. An anonymous bidder on Monday purchased the proof copy of “Harry Potter And The Philosopher’s Stone,” first published…

  • ssssh…dan’s working

    I’ve taken on the task of recapping every show at TWoP. Well, not every show. Just every reality show. Okay, not every reality show. Just nine of them. Six of them. Four of them. Okay, fine, three of them. Here are two of them: the increasingly unwatchable new season of The Bachelorette and the overly-watchable…

  • Happy Birthday, Mister Velcrometer

    Continuing the DHAK love, today is M Giant’s birthday. We wished him some words that were pure poetry.

  • Recap: Line of Fire

    I filled in for Jessica this week, recapping Line of Fire. If you’re one of the three people watching this show, perhaps you’ll find this interesting. If I hadn’t been asked to cover, I would have never known this show existed.

  • Dan knows that the fastest way to California…

No stopping. No fun. No scenery. Just driving. See the country at 80MPH.…

  • Possessive Crazy Cat Lady

    Maybe I’m just being paranoid, but (silly Photoshop work aside), that cat on the left… I think it’s Cal. Remember years and years ago when I posted pictures of Cal sleeping in the laundry basket? I think that’s one of them. (Note the lack of tail.) I feel like I’ve violated Cal’s privacy. What if…

  • Yes, but Dan, what do you LOOK like?

    How often you’ve been kept up nights! Well, the jig is up, and though I haven’t seen it, I can tell you with authority I stumbled into the pages of Time Out New York. In the film section, even though I haven’t made a film. Word has it I’m hiding behind two people you wouldn’t…

  • Like you wouldn’t check this site every other day if it was your book?

    Someone must have bought like, two copies of my book today, as my ranking shot up to 6000 from 14,000. Thanks, Internet Stranger!
