I’m having a weird week, about which I shall expound more later. Part of the weirdness has resulted in my watching a lot of television, ‘though that really has nothing to do with Saturday night. Beginning at 10:30 on Saturdays, I get SNL, then (often) Soundstage, then (usually) Austin City Limits. One of the things [...]

I used the random-question-generator at Formspring.me and got this question. If you could look like anybody, who would it be? This is a great question. I’m half Asian and half Caucasian and while I identify equally with both races, I’m culturally much more Caucasian but physically much more Asian. This means that when I look [...]
In case you haven’t seen them (and I’d be mildly surprised if you haven’t), here are the two SuperBowl commercials that were good. First, the Google. And now the Letterman. The Google ad is a thing of beauty, and it goes to show you that you don’t need crotch-shots, anthropomorphic animals, talking babies, or bikini-clad [...]

Jay is not the villain. NBC is the villain. Jay comes off looking not good because it’s his show that caused local affiliates to rebel and because he’s going to have his old show back while Conan is temporarily homeless. Five years ago, NBC was afraid of losing Conan the way it lost Letterman sixteen [...]

Got into a little bit of trouble at work. Can’t write about it now, if ever, but I might have to pack up and find a more anonymous URL. Readers of this space who care might drop me a line just to make sure you know where I go in case I go dark here. [...]

I’m still reading the Newberys, but I’m going to take a little break from writing about them tonight. It has been a physical, mental, and emotional drain on me, all this reading, and not from the amount of the reading (please! I was an English major!), but from the type of reading. Even this one [...]

Three good things that happened yesterday, and three good things that happened today: Yesterday. I don’t know how I did it, but I created five sudoku puzzles between the early morning and about 9:00 in the evening. Started at breakfast and just kept working on it (taking breaks to work on other stuff) and before [...]

I somehow lost the draft I started last night about three good things that happened yesterday. While I was looking for it, I found this unfinished entry. Not very interesting, but I publish it for the heck of it. Got the new Zits book in the mail today. Coolness. Downloaded “Outshined” on iTunes yesterday. Also [...]

I don’t know what made me Google Huell Howser last week, but I was just messing around on the web and I guess I wondered what he was up to. My dad and I used to watch his excellent show, California’s Gold, when the local public television station showed it. Howser’s got a terrific Tennessee [...]
