    This Christmas

    January 5th, 2009

    "This Christmas" was a mildly interesting movie, but I would have rather watched the final dance scene for two hours instead. Come on! I could watch that forever! There may be something wrong with me.

    Are You Watching This, Sports Fans?

    December 22nd, 2008

    I don't think I've posted about this site before, but it is awesome if you follow any sports. Basically, you make an account and then set up which sports you follow (I have it set up for NFL and NCAA Men's Basketball) and your cable or satellite provider, and then the site will e-mail and/or text you if a game on TV is close or exciting (i.e. it's an upset, it's in overtime, whatever). It's great if you're a sports fan like me — I follow some teams, but if there's a close game on, I'll watch anyone. The site has a lot of other features, but the alerts are the ones I use most.

    THUNDER SNOW!

    December 19th, 2008

    Is it weird that I’m kind of excited for THUNDER SNOW?

    Baxter in the snow

    Baxter in the snow, originally uploaded by Kim Reed.

    We’re supposed to get 8 - 12 inches of snow today. This is my before picture. Baxter was outside for all of thirty seconds and already had this much snow on his back, so it’s coming down pretty fast. Glad I don’t have anywhere to go today!

    NBC Just Gives Up On 10PM

    December 8th, 2008


    I can't believe that there are reports that NBC is just going to give Jay Leno the 10PM hour Monday through Friday.

    At least, I couldn't until I started thinking about it. Leno, while not my cup of tea, pulls in good ratings. NBC would be dumb to let him go, but they also would be dumb to let Conan go because they'd have to pay him a ton of money. Plus, now that ER is ending, NBC doesn't have anything in the 10PM hour that pulls in huge ratings. They don't have anything at any hour that pulls in huge ratings. So they can move the Laws and Orderses to 9PM, ditch all the terrible hour-long dramas that have failed this season, and put Leno at 10PM.

    I guess. It still seems weird, but maybe NBC needs something really crazy to get out of the bottom.

    I bet fifty dollars on it!

    November 20th, 2008

    This video is hilarous. I totally remember this phase of pre-teendom. I was trying to figure out which girl I would be in this video — I think I was the one in back on the left — look at the look she gives the one who falls to her knees crying! It's sort of like, "Girl, please!" but then she realizes that they're totally not kidding so she has to pretend to be upset too. Either that, or the girl who walks over to the couch and flops down kind of like, "I'M UPSET TOO!"

    Recommend

    November 15th, 2008

    I highly recommend Role Models. Funniest movie I’ve seen in a long time. Way funnier than I thought it was going to be. Not one of those where you’ve already seen the funniest parts in the commercials/trailer — they did a good job keeping some of the plot points/visual jokes under wraps.

    The Gap is in the Tank

    November 11th, 2008

    First, SNL has some of my favorite dudes as hosts — Jon Hamm, Ben Affleck, and Paul Rudd.

    Now, The Gap is featuring Jon Hamm and Jason Bateman (another favorite) in their holiday ads.

    Do you think I can crop out Jennifer Westfeldt? Or maybe I can get Dave to put my head on her body.

    Um, I'm not crazy.

    Marla Gibbs As Press Secretary

    November 6th, 2008

    If, as Best Week Ever suggests, Marla Gibbs should be Obama’s press secretary, I think Jackee should be Secretary of SASS!

    Conan Votes!

    November 4th, 2008

    I don't know why I find this photo so cute, but it is. Look at the big Irish lad casting his vote!
