THE GIRLIE SHOW: Carvel Thanks NBC’s 30 Rock with... →
the-girlieshow:
ATLANTA, GA (October 28, 2010) – Proving that even Fudgie the Whale and Cookie Puss know a good joke when they hear it, legendary ice cream company Carvel presented the writers of NBC’s 30 Rock with a show-themed cake this week. Carvel was a huge part of last Thursday’s storyline in which…

Time For Some Truth!
A second Epicurean argument against the fear of death, the so-called ‘symmetry argument,’ is recorded by the Epicurean poet Lucretius. He says that anyone who fears death should consider the time before he was born. The past infinity of pre-natal non-existence is like the future infinity of post-mortem non-existence; it is as though nature has put...

Ha-HAA!
I found you, you fucker. I’m in a coffee shop. I found it. I felt like I was on the verge of being mugged on the way over here and there is an obscene amount of flies in the place, but I’ve got my caffeine damnit.
Also, I just watched a man pick a peach out of a trash can and start eating it. This is a fact.

Where the Fuck Are The Coffee Shops?
There aren’t any coffee shops near the mall. Like, none. And no way am I going to drink more of that hot sludge they pass for coffee in the museums. Fuck you Fossil Cafe. Get a real barista. The last dedicated coffee shop I saw was a Starbucks in Virginia.
I’m tired. Where the hell is that Fossil Cafe?
Interview Process to Work on the Mall
Are you miserable?
How miserable are you?
Could you be more miserable?
Can you make tourists feel miserable just by looking at them?
If you answered “no” to any of these questions, you are far too happy to work at our Nation’s Capitol. Thanks for applying, and go fuck yourself.

I'm in D.C.!
I’m sitting at a Starbucks outside of Capitol Hill. Let me know if you want a picture of anything in particular.
Also, I’m staying in the Ritz Carlton. It’s nice. On the top floor is a room called the Carlton Club. It has all sorts of free food. Oh, and free booze. Like, lots of free booze. They have bottles of top shelf liquor just hanging out for anyone to drink. Nothing says...

Just Had A Thought About Glenn Beck
I was reading an article about an executive from the Tides Organization, a think tank I believe, called for marketers to stop advertising on Fox News due to Glenn Beck. In particular, he said that Beck inspires violence. Which, at first glance, may seem over the top. It is not as though he calls for the death of those who disagree with him. A variety of vices may suit Mr. Beck, but I don’t...

30 Day TV Challenge Day 05
Day 05 - A show you hate - Jersey Shore, MTV
These fucking guys. I hate this show, but more importantly I hate its popularity. What redeeming feature do they have? None, or at least none that we are shown. Jersey Shore represents the absolute glorification of materialism as defined by others. To be clear, I am in no way against being materialistic. I truly believe that to be happy a person...

30 Day TV Challenge - Day 04
Day 04 - Your favorite show ever - Battlestar Galactica, SciFi
Picking favorites is hard, but I’m going to stick with good ol’ BSG. It’s great. The greatest show I have seen. It’s a fantastic setting grounded by very real characters. Sometimes you envy them, sometimes you pity them. The universe created in this series is unparalleled.
Perhaps the best part of this...
30 Day TV Challenge - Day 03
Day 03 - Your favorite new show ( aired this t.v season) - Children’s Hospital, Adult Swim
I’ve liked what I’ve seen. It takes a nice spin on the trite hospital premise and adds a good dose of black comedy. It doesn’t hurt that I like Rob Cordry’s comedy.
I will say that I haven’t watched very many new shows this season, so my potential pool is fairly skewed.

Triscuit thin crisp commercial submission
WE LOVE THIN CRISPS
(what happens when sara and i study for humanities exams together and it is 2 in the morning)
Hmmm. Lacks a definite log line. Also, I think it neglects the part of the audience that doesn’t read exclusively in mirror images. But, I did learn that eating Triscuits can cause chronic giggles. I give it 3/5 Old...

A show that you wish more people were watching: Mad Men, AMC
Anyone who has talked to me about TV knows this one already. Mad Men is quite simply the greatest show on TV. They don’t write bad episodes or weak plots. The actors are convincing and the characters have depth. The cinematography is superb. Despite all this, it has gone largely unappreciated by the...

TV Challenge Day 01
Day 01- A show that should have never been canceled: Rome, HBO
This one goes to HBO’s Rome. I loved that show for its historical intrigue mixed with dramatic action. I liked how it could cut from Cicero greasing the inner wheels of the Senate to Titus Pullo biting another man’s tongue out in the middle of a fight. Production costs, sadly, put an end to this fine series.

More from Anderson Cooper’s interview with congressional candidate Renee Ellmers of North Carolina.
This woman makes me ashamed to be a resident of North Carolina.
How dare you say that the people of North Carolina are at fault for your uninformed, prejudiced statements?
I wouldn’t say that she makes me ashamed to be a citizen of the Old North State....

I May Be Wrong But...
The Earth moves at about 19 miles per second. Usain Bolt set a world record for running 100 meters in 9.58 seconds, or .06214 miles in 9.58 seconds, or .00649 miles per second. Which means that the fastest man ever recorded only moved %0.0003 faster than you are at this very moment. Maybe Connie and Rachel aren’t so lazy after all.
