Star Wars + Legos = Good Times!

Cruise Update
76 days left and 26 pounds to lose! What the crap! I gained a pound!

More on Frank Gorshin:

Great send off to a great actor tonight as Frank played a truly creepy character on the Tarantino-directed CSI finale. I imagine it was his last performance, and it's always very wierd when a actor dies the same day a character of his does as well (as my mom pointed out - like that midget from Passions).

My friend Mike has a nice little tribute to the Riddler on his blog here. Please, ask him about the Frank Gorshin sexual move. The answer is worth it.

RIP Frank Gorshin

Holy Cow it's Bumblebee!

I need your help!

I need feedback from you. If you could have any super power, what would it be? And what do you think is the wierdest power you've ever heard of/thought of? Leave your answer below as a comment. I might just use your power in a new story I'm working on.

And now weather news for the DC area - it is about to get reaaaaaallll ugly out there.

Fun quote from Sam: "I think I'll go grocery shopping today - I mean, I got dressed today, and I can't guarantee that'll happen the rest of the weekend."

CNN's getting rid of the idiots on Crossfire for THREE MORE #@$%! HOURS OF WOLF BLITZER EVERY DAY!? Here, here to cable news' most self-important, sensationalistic furball (had to add the furball part to disqualify O'Reilly). It's a wonder MSNBC isn't beating these guys all over the place.

Blitzer to host 'wide open' CNN stretch

NEW YORK (Hollywood Reporter) - CNN will debut a three-hour, late-afternoon show hosted by Wolf Blitzer that will replace "Crossfire" and "Inside Politics" sometime this summer.

Details have yet to be worked out, but Jon Klein, president of CNN/US, said Tuesday that it would showcase the network's reporting and analytical assets with a special focus on breaking news.

"It will offer a new and enticing way to look at the world for busy people," Klein said. (Rest of Sad story here.)

The Used remade Bowie and Queen's "Under Pressure"? Didn't anyone learn from Vanilla Ice?

Mliosevic, you sorry sonofabitch - Kosovo - kick their ass and see how it goes?

Getting in shape for summer -

Less than three months until the cruise! 82 days to be exact! 82 days to lose a little bit of weight and make myself a little more shipworthy. I'll be keeping track of how it goes here.

Current tally: Remaining: 82 days and 25 pounds.
