Over Papa’s shoulder waits another Papa. Brooklyn pizza joints have the best décor.

Family Matters

Uncle Danny: Our next VP speaks in 30 minutes!
Me: That religious nut with the annoying voice? If she's our next VP, I'm moving to the moon.
Uncle Danny: Oh, calm down. You have to admit Rudy just told the truth.
Me: RUDY? Oh, BARF. Gotta go...watching Mad Men...love ya!

Palin Is An Annoying Nut

Watch the video, then read Sam Harris’ evaulation. I am patient with other views, but I have a feeling Palin would have a huge problem with the separation of church and state…and I also kind of think she might not know what that is. Barf.

I don’t know where this came from and I don’t know who did it. I don’t know why. All I know, is that it makes me laugh. I don’t know why about that, either.

I might want to marry this person. Barring the fact that he loves Jesus and I don’t think Jesus is relevant, and he wants to dance to Seeger and I want to dance to ELO…he’s a good Southern boy I’d like to grocery shop with. Barf.

Mets v. Astros. Not doing so well. I always jinx them.

“The French writer Émile Deschamps claims in his memoires, that in 1805 he was treated to some plum pudding by a stranger named Monsieur de Fontgibu. Ten years later, the writer encountered plum pudding on the menu of a Paris restaurant, and wanted to order some, but the waiter told him the last dish had already been served to another customer, who turned out to be de Fontgibu. Many years later, in 1832, Émile Deschamps was at a diner, and was once again offered plum pudding. He recalled the earlier incident and told his friends that only de Fontgibu was missing to make the setting complete — and in the same instant, the now senile de Fontgibu entered the room” Wikipedia page for “Synchronicity”

Boy, 3, Puts Cat Into Microwave

I want to make it very clear that I don’t think it’s funny that a little boy put a cat in a microwave.

I want to make it very clear that I do think it’s funny that the cat’s name is “Stouffer”. The irony. The irony.

“US Catholics pleased with pope, survey finds”

Interesting. I guess I can understand that they’re pleased with his tendency to say terrible things and wear great hats. So many great hats, that PBXVI!

Last weekend I saw my first love for the first time in forever. He came to New York with a friend. Other than bringing with him all of the reasons I ever loved him, he brought a gift. He burned me a copy of every Peter Sellers movie that is only available on VHS to dvd. Now I have them to obsess over. The first I’ve knocked off the list is the above, Only Two Can Play.

It’s 1962 Sellers (which, if you didn’t know, is Sellers in his prime, according to me). He plays an unhappy librarian who has a wandering eye. Horny librarian Peter Sellers when he was kind of chubby? HOLY FUCK.

Be still.
