  • I finally found someone to play tennis with. It was quite a departure from playing with my old hitting partner, Big Cement Wall. Unlike BCW, Preston didn't let me win. In fact, I didn't even win a game until midway th…

  • IT'S ALL FUN AND GAMES UNTIL SOMEONE GETS FIRED I've been in a generally foul mood for the past few days. It's nothing unusual - anyone who knows me will tell you - but recently, each spell seems to get a little deeper…

  • Woman gives birth to frog - film at 11.

  • BUT WHAT DOES THE PARTY SAY ABOUT THE FILM? Last week, my friend Becky and I dined at our favorite sushi restaurant, Murakami. It was great - we hadn't seen each other since she had moved to a new apartment some weeks …

  • This is the best song...ever. Mad props to David for pointing me in its direction.

  • I have nothing terribly interesting to say other than 1) I was just alerted that my Xanga Premium is set to expire (I don't currently have the $25 laying about, but I'm sure I'll find it on the corner of Hollywood & …

  • BEHOLD, THE TASTE OF EVIL This is the new Coke C2. It's being touted as having half the carbs of Coke Classic, but without losing any taste. After sampling said product, and as a loyal Coke Classic devotee for more …

  • WHEREIN I NEEDED TO MISS SIX OR FEWER TO PASS This morning, at 8:45 a.m., I had my long-dreaded appointment with the DMV. My Florida driver's license expires in less than one week, after 16 years of faithful, never hav…

  • I'll ruin the ending for you: unfortunately the parachute opened.

  • One last parting shot, courtesy of Jimmy Breslin, for the Gipper.

  • THIS JUST IN: We're officially out of news, so we give you this!

  • As I type this my upstairs neighbor, in our backyard, is asking Holly how she's doing, what she's been up to and what she's got in her mouth. If you think that last one is an odd question, this might explain it: Holly i…

  • Laura Bush is sad to see The Gipper croak, just not sad enough (or smart enough) to acquiesce to Nancy's request for more stem cell research. She is, however, hoping it'll help her slow-witted spouse retain tenancy at 1…

  • Mission accomplished! All I had to do was overcome a viewing of The Station Agent, which was delightful, but eventually I got to the task at hand and I found the note cards. I'd forgotten how precious these cards are…

  • I'M NOT SICK, BUT I'M NOT WELL I believe I've used that title for an entry before, but perhaps I'll make it an ongoing thread, especially in light of its intimate relevance to my state of being. In honor of my recent i…

  • PIST No matter what you think of sports, tonight's NBA Finals game was all the cliched drama you hear about, and then some. It was Game 2 of the Finals. LA Lakers vs. Detroit Pistons. LA had home field advantage, but…

  • THE SOONER HE'S SIX FEET UNDER, THE BETTER According to my dear friend Shannon, it's as if the Alzheimer's has spread to the entirety of the country. Ronald Reagan's passing has once again brought out the trumpets of h…

  • A TALE OF TWO HOMOS Tonight I realized the incalculable value of being "out". This concept is nothing new for me - it's something I've known and have explained to others for some time now. Of course, I have the benefi…

  • A LITTLE DEATH BEFORE BED In yet another astonishingly bad move, I decided to watch The Life of David Gale before bed tonight. For those who have not seen the film, it's basically a political statement against the deat…

  • I'm experimenting with something here. Ordinarily I don't care what you think, but...yeah, I still don't - but feel free to let me know, regardless.

  • A CIVICS LESSON, TODD-STYLE Yesterday I made my second trip in three weeks to The Getty; a museum and architectural piece de resistance here in Los Angeles. This go-round was made with my Aussie friend Jodie, who is he…

  • This just in (courtesy of David): WE WANT BUSH TO WIN The statement said [al Qaeda] supported U.S. President George W. Bush in his reelection campaign, and would prefer him to win in November rather than the Democrati…
