An interview with Jeff Zucker
I’m kind of mesmerized by the whole late night drama going on right now. While I’m firmly planted on Team Conan, I don’t really fault Leno for this mess. Either way, it’s been comic gold. Here’s my solution. Local news -10:30, Leno – 11, Conan’s Tonight Show at 11:30. Everyone [more…]

¡Feliz Navidad!
I really appreciate the Spanish language for warning someone how to properly deliver a phrase. The leading, upside-down, exclamation mark in ¡Feliz Navidad! warns the reader that this is going to be an exclamation! Read with enthusiasm!

iPhone transcends all
What a sight to see this morning. As I was walking from the subway to my office, I saw a bunch of grizzly, hard-hat clad, construction workers gathered around in a circle. Sweating and cursing and doing what real men do.
For some reason they had congregated under the very same scaffolding [more…] -

Cocktails at the Centre of the Earth

Nicholas Caaage?
I’ll get back to writing. I really will. In the meantime, check out Nicholas Cage being himself in several Japanese commercials. Weird.
