brief tweets weekly (2008-12-28)

  • Just finished the pilot fort the Sarah Jane Adventures. On to the first regular episode. #
  • Tom Bosley has got to be one of the celebrities least changed by the ravages of age. Only his career has sagged to commercials on daytime tv #
  • Do you suffer from DVR Deletion Dereliction(tm)? Or Mighta Misseda Goodie-itis? DVR the Sarah Jane Adventures & watch. Truly the Insta Cure. #
  • The billboard for Tom Cruise’s new flailing for an Oscar is very troubling. The Valkyrie. And yet he’s totally missing blond braids & boobs. #
  • Greatest. Billboard. Ever. “Bowls. Bad for haircuts. Great for dinner. Terriyakai bowls.” #
  • Reading spam comments on my blog, I saw my new favorite non sequitur: “Maybe you should try drawing in chocolate.” You know, maybe I should! #
  • Just saw a disturbing sign above a store front on Melrose: “Sleep with me I’m on sale” Huckster or hooker? One can never tell in La La land. #
  • Slide show of shirtless president picks. And yes, Obama’s the hottest. And wow, the candid Hawaii shot seems traditional. http://bit.ly/a9va #
  • At Hollywood & Highland there’s an ambulance. Guy in a Freddy Kooger outfit has been beaten pretty badly in the face. Hope perps go to jail. #
  • Just passed the pot store on Santa Monica Blvd. In West Hollywood. Lots of business for that Christmas Evening high. Pot cookies for Santa! #
  • Enjoying the 62 F & sunshine with Dad on the way to the Tale of Despereaux & Christmas Linner (lunch + dinner). #
  • Waiting for Bedtime Stories at the Grove with Dad. They’re playing the Mr Heat Miser / Mr Snow theme song. What fun! Bizarro season classic. #
  • Yesterday I took my 69 year old to two Christmas movies. Bedtime Stories & the Tale of Despereaux. Dad said both were good but second great. #
  • thinking that taping bacon on a cat would be torture except that this cat seems so over it, as cats are wont to be. http://bit.ly/nN5Y #
  • re-reading a New Years Day invitation and I noticed: “This email was produced in a machine that is also used for peanuts and wheat products” #
  • RT: @ariherzog 7 things that make Christmas, err, Jol, quite different in Iceland http://bit.ly/TQFu #
  • admittedly not the biggest fan of instant messaging, especially on FaceBook, but when a dear friend in Paris messages you. C’est Magnifique! #
  • reading the Pig Prayer for the Holy Church of Bacon. And I’ve always maintained that bacon is God’s food! Modern manna!! http://bit.ly/LoCM #
  • Very happy that today I told my 69 year old he should breakfast alone. And lunch with me. I can sleep in. & he’ll be hungry again by then. #
  • Just heard someone use in casual conversation his new favorite expression from Alan Ball’s True Blood: “He’s dumber than a box of hair.” #
  • Watching the Slim & Lift infommercial. It feels like the Price Is Right with its music & lighting. Very debilitating somehow. Time to buy! #
  • Billboard: “Best American movie of the year.” For Racehl Getting Married. But was it a great year for American movies? Where’s the context? #
  • How to Grow Twitter Followers & Blog Subscribers — very cool!

  • At the Griddle Cafe again! I need a support group for this place. Maybe over there, some could gather & brunch on how to get over brunching? #
  • Destini Cafe on La Cienega didn’t make it. Very expensive cafe snacks from China & Indonesia & expensive astrology. Wasn’t their destini! #
  • At Borders in West Hollywood. Seeing Twilight merchandise: prop replicas from the film. Great marketing & merchandising — or the new scary? #
  • at Borders I met a girl in front of the True Blood display. She helped me find the next books in the series. Introduced her to a new series. #
  • The first two people that I followed on Twitter were @scobleizer & @apenny The first company was @facebook. http://bit.ly/BBce #firstfollow #
  • I’m boycotting the cold. No more for me. I’m wearing an electric blanket until March. #
  • Watching a Jody Whatley video for Beautiful Life that looks new. She looks better now than she did in 1990. Beautiful life, indeed! #
  • Thinking every time I see Brittany Spears in the video for Womanizer it’s a pretty great video even if every product has been placed overtly #
  • Love this line from Sookie Stackhouse: “..if you’re a woman who works in a bar you know the difference between an evaluation & an eye fuck.” #
