Evidently, Business Insider has decided to inaugurate the launch of Jimmy Fallon’s late-night talk show with a litany of the 10 Biggest Talk Show Bombs.
I prefer to honor Mr. Fallon for his awesome parody of that Dirty Vegas video.
Monday Morning Montaigne: Of cripples
Don’t invent reasons to explain every fact. For example, just because you had really good sex with a crippled woman, it does not validate a proverb that says cripples are better in bed.
Seriously. That’s the example he chose.
On to Of physiognomy!
What It Is: 3/2/09
What I’m reading: Montaigne & Clive James. Oh, and I started Liar’s Poker, on my new Kindle!
What I’m listening to: My new Mad Mix CD, and a couple of Kate Bush records.
What I’m watching: The Darjeeling Limited, Synecdoche, New York, and Adaptation.
What I’m drinking: Blue Point Blueberry Ale, and Plymouth & Q Tonic.
What Rufus is up to: Finally playing with the other dogs on his Saturday dog-park visit! It helped that one of his grey-pals was there and sociable.
Where I’m going: Nowhere special, but we’re hoping to get into a nice restaurant next Saturday to celebrate my wife’s birthday.
What I’m happy about: I survived a weekend at home without Amy, my first since late 2005.
What I’m sad about: The death of my wife’s grandmother (the prompt for Amy to be away this weekend). She was always alright to me, even if she was a little confused about who I was sometimes.
What I’m pondering: Synecdoche, New York. I have a feeling that movie’s going to be in my head for a long time.
