affleck’s head, shoulders
I finally found someone who hates Ben Affleck more than my mother does. Also: I’ll pay someone to send me copies of those hair commercials. My mom has an irrational anger toward him, to the point where she thinks that duck is selling Ben Affleck’s insurance. “Why does he whine all the time?” she asks.…

wendy’s on a mission.
It’s anti-Jemima J week at Pound. Part of me reads it with my eyes half-shut, imagining what people would say if there was an anti-Anna K week. The rest of me is more than elated — the publishing house that did JJ turned down Why Girls Are Weird in 2001, claiming that the two books…

Blaine Watch
It’s getting ugly. “Those cruel Brits continue to attack David Blaine, and now one of them is really hitting below the belt. The illusionist has been dangling in a box over London, and has been hit with eggs, paint balls and visions of various body parts by unappreciative crowds. Now, The News of the World…

pamie went to high school in the Town Without Hope
Tracie’s right. It is a little scary, Dan. But luckily, as I have no musical talents in the slightest, I can only read songs as tiny Dr. Seuss poems. And your song is fantastic in over-stressed iambic pentameter. (Thank you for the story) Still waiting on plumbers. And the phone’s broken today. You can hear…

Dan tells a story, adds a song cue. And a song.
Tell a story? With pleasure, Pamela. With self-celebrating pleasure.

This musical has been in development for some time now, and, in its earliest…

pam is procrastinating.
Dan, I’m bored. Tell me a story. We’re having some serious water issues in the house. Specifically, when we turn the water on the house wails and moans like the poltergeists are about to cave it in. It’s been two weeks of dealing with plumbers, each one more confused than the other, and now one…

dan spends some time on the Pacific Rim
The last three movies I’ve seen, just by coincidence, have all taken place in Japan. This is, by strides, the best of them.

pamie shares an actual google search
I never do this, but today’s referral log says that someone found my site by searching “what does a crackhead look like?” I don’t know if I should be proud that my site comes up on the first page of the results. Off to watch Everwood. Why? Because AB hates me and is having me…

pamie gets spotted
Tess tells about her Eddie Izzard adventure, and she mentions me as someone she spotted. I told her it would have been cool if she had come up and said hello, as I love it when my friends realize that “the internet” is full of “real people” who “exist.” [Warning: Eddie Izzard spoilers inside]
