I love Fiona Apple, Her voice is like honey. Who doesn't
like honey? Oh yeah? Well you're an idiot. Honey is
delicious. I remember when I first discovered her and
was listening to her all the time. At the time, Winona
Ryder was still not a criminal and cool and she said
the one CD she listened to all the time was Fiona
Apple's and I thought "Yeah I'm with it".

Anyway...I found this clip on another girlie's site...

I'm such a stealer. I just read all peoples blogs and steal
their clips. I'm a bad fucking person! But, I love this
clip..

I got "A" s on all of my college film projects does not
equal I will be a success in Hollywood...I'm just saying...
I didn't get nowhere you guys...

I remember getting an "A" on a project in my Freshman
year and Zach Braff (you know him--yeah he's kind of
famous) got a "B" and he went and discussed his grade
with the TA and told him why he thought his project
deserved an "A".  They were still debating it while I
walked home in the snow, feeling good about my "A".
Five years later, Zach would be a Hollywood millionaire
and I would be this.

Why did I worry about my grades so much?

How much does this clip mean to you? Clare Danes is super-good.
Even though, I feel like she hasn't lived up to her potential. Maybe
her life is too good and she doesn't hate herself enough or her
parents weren't super-demanding (which are all good things)
buuuuuuuuut I think she could've been better and in more. Like
she could've been our Meryl Streep and maybe she still will be
or maybe the NEXT GREAT ONE is somebody else but
regardless she's still really good. And, mostly I loved this show
because I felt like I was Angela Chase and not as bold as Angela
Chase and wanted to be Angela Chase with Jordan Catallano.
God...c'mon...I mean Jordan Catallano...he epitomizes dreamy.
Remember when she's at her locker and nobody knows they're
like hooking up and she stares at him and he ignores her and
then he turns and he like makes a decision and he walks over
and he grabs her hand and walks down the hall with her. Soooo
classic.

I just wanted to embed the pilot which says (pretty much) everything but...
"Embedding disabled by request" are  like the saddest 4 wordsEVER...

Wait!

OMG the clip is just here on youtube. I LOVE YOUTUBE...

I've had guys apologize like this to me recently and yeah it
feels pretty awesome...watch Angela's response and imagine me...

The writers on that show were SO talented but also
the CAST!  The dad and the mom were so great. In a lot of
ways, the reminded me of my parents (the artistic dad and
the responsible type-A mom). I SOOOOOOO identified.
I wish this show had lasted longer because it was SO good.

There's so MUCH I love about this skit/clip/whatever.
One, when I first saw it I didn't know who the hell
Andy Dick was. But, then I started to really respect
him on NewsRadio. Then, I met him a couple of times
on the whole comedy scene in LA...not the real
comedy scene...like the ridiculous open mic comedy
scene...

So, there was a Halloween Pot Luck at work. And, I made
some punch with frozen hands (made out of cranberry juice)
floating around in it and called it "Hands-Off Punch".  I
also made some mashed potatoes but they didn't seem
Halloweenie enough so I dyed them green. Lots of people
said they looked too gross to eat but they ate the shit out
of them so I didn't feel so bad. It was a lame kind of FUN!

There was a LOT of FOOD...a LOT of BAD FOOD that
I NEVER EAT... so I kind of went bananas. At one point,
I was waiting patiently to get to all the crock pots (with
meat dishes in them), my funny boss and I were waiting
together. He looked down at my plate and I all I had
on it was potato chips, this tater tot casserole thing and
my green mashed potatoes.

"So, you like potatoes?" he asked.

I guess I didn't go bananas. I went POTATOES!

(PS - I can't wait for next years Halloween POTATO LUCK!mmm)

Ben Stiller...

I knew Ben Stiller before you did...well not really...but I may have
read an article or two before he hit the BIGTIME!

I remember watching this and thinking he was special.

RECIPE FOR A MAGICAL SENSATION

1.Listen to Bruce Springsteen's I'm On Fire
2.Add a copious amount of Funny!
_______________________________________________________

When I was in college, I used to write for a sketch comedy show.
My co-writer Beckie wrote a funny skit called "The Men of PBS"
and she chose to  play Springsteen's "FIRE" in the
background. It was a great combination. Maybe I was being
overly-emotional or seriously sleep-deprived, but I remember
feeling horny and amused  all at the same time.  And, that's
just a great feeliing. I encourage you to do it on your own. (Follow
the above recipe)

(NOTE: The song alone won't produce that magical sensation
I'm talking about..you can try it on its own. but after that..please
add some funny!)

Sex+Funny are like the best things ever!
If you add Sex+Funny+Food...that's like a RECIPE FOR MARRIAGE!
Okay, you guys, I've gotta go...I'm on FIRE!

I knew Ben Stiller before you did...

I remember watching this and thinking he was special.

by a brown paper bag. i'm a butterbody. ) :
