“But if it doesn’t air on Friday nights it’s going to confuse the audience!”
Those who don’t remember FNL are doomed to repeat it.
I like Allison Janney cast as the mom but I’m not so sure about Tony Shalhoub.
omg I’m in love with the new Thursday night/silent film NBC commercial. They used drunk Ron Swanson to perfection!

“I asked Michael why it was easier to train oil drillers to become astronauts...”
– Ben Affleck, on the Armageddon commentary track.
(this and a number of other intriguing insights are found on Film School Rejects’ “61 Things We Learned From the Armageddon Commentary”)
Also explains Ben Affleck’s baby teeth. I always thought he had baby teeth and now I know!

Sweet Briar represent!
Again, the ladies of Sweet Briar prove their superiority at creating such a fire storm about (fill in the blank) that the administration is forced to respond. With a letter. That you have to download instead of reading on the SBC website. As a Word document. I repeat- as a Word document. Ok, maybe all that animosity is deserved.
Oh, and stop messing with our traditions, Jo Ellen! Don’t make...

I’m sitting in my office anxious for my bank to release my 2011 mutual fund and interest statements so I can hurry up and file my taxes. Today has been marked on my calendar for like two weeks now. And it hits me that I’m really an adult. Or am I just desperate to get my cash back from the IRS? Either way, I’m a little weirded out by my interest in doing my taxes this year.

I can’t wait to see what kind of back handed comments will fly between Maggie Smith and Shirley MacLaine’s characters. Can. not. wait.

Metro notes:
There’s a busker playing guitar at the Huntington station every evening. In my book he’s not a real busker because he plays with sheet music. But that’s neither here nor there. The point is - I’ve heard him play Wonderwall 3 out of the last 7 work nights. He’s also fond of Hallelujah because I’ve heard that one twice. Mix it up, dude! Also, learn...

The Benedict Cumberbatch Situation | Huffington... →
megsokay:
I feel like I could have probably put more thought into publishing this, I needed to get this out of my system so I can think about things other than Benedict Cumberbatch’s performance in Sherlock again.
It’s a great performance. Seriously.
It’s comforting to know I’m not the only one with this situation. We need a Cumberbatch Syndrome Support Group or something.

charlottesweb:
This fake boy band is in almost all of my memories from late middle school. We were really into them.
This is the most important news of the day! I loved everything about 2gether. The movie, the show, the cds, the parody-ness. I hope it happens!

Today I had one of those recall moments that I absolutely love. I remembered a nerdy little tidbit of information from one of my MA classes. Super nerdy. Metadata and e-reading file nerdy. Not only did I have the recall but I also got to tell someone they’re doing something the wrong way. So I stretched my publishing legs and sent them an explanation of the problem and what part needs to be...
