Writer’s Strike Part 2
Is SAG trying to kill television? Don’t they know the second in a series is almost always bad?
The contract between the Screen Actors Guild and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers expires Monday, and negotiations have dragged on for weeks with no apparent headway…A strike in July…could delay the return of many fall TV shows. [Source, MSNBC, Strike 2? Hollywood braces for actor walkout]
Seen on Shavar’s Blog (which has music that autoplays).
Thanks to Hurley, I know about disposable panties!
If it wasn’t for my love of Lost I probably would not have found Jorge Garcia’s blog. Had I not found his blog, I would have never known about Oops! Disposable Panties!
Accidents Happen! Every woman and parent knows that a fresh change of undies can be a lifesaver. In one tiny capsule you’ll always have two comfortable undies in an instant. Only $1.99 In Assorted Colors. [Source]
Yes, it reads like a Saturday Night Live sketch but they’re real!
Wearing a mic? Don’t say words that rhyme with duck!
Warning! Obscenities ahead:
Find the links and quotes on Mahalo. (And no, I don’t quite get Mahalo yet either but I was slow on the Twitter uptake too.)
Iron Man Non-spoiler Spoiler
I am now following @Bagadonuts because of this Tweet:
Re:"Iron Man"(2008)The script revealed Tony Stark(Iron Man) to be the creator of Dr. Otto Octavius’s tentacles from Spider-Man 2 (2004). [Source, Twitter,@Bagadonuts]
Which is a shame that it doesn’t appear in the film because it makes the robots in the garage exponentially cooler! (and more believable)
Other great ones from @Bagadonuts:
Re:"The Dark Knight"(2008) As a joke one bat suit was made with nipples and presented to Christian Bale as the new and improved costume. [Source, Twitter,@Bagadonuts]
Re:"Caddyshack"(1980)The noises the Gopher makes are vocalized by a dolphin, and those are the same ones used for “Flipper” series (1964). [Source, Twitter,@Bagadonuts]
Re:"The Patriot"(2000) One of the redcoats (actually dummies) floating face down in the river after the “trap” is a dummy of John Travolta. [Source, Twitter,@Bagadonuts]
Re:"Rain Man"(1988) During filmimg, both Hoffman and Cruise doubted the movie’s potential and jokingly called it, “Two Schmucks in a Car”. [Source, Twitter,@Bagadonuts]
Who is F—ing Who?
Update: Scroll below the videos to read about the backstory. Part of the humor in all this is that many people miss that this is a gag…a bit.
If you have been living in a closet then you probably don’t know that Sarah Silver is f—ing Matt Damon. Just in case you missed it here is the bleeped version:
Of course, Jimmy Kimmel has a response video:
Interestingly enough, the video is dedicated to the memory of Norman Mailer. I suspected that the dedication was a joke, but if it is, the joke went over my head. Mailer passed in November 2007 which could mean the dedication is serious. Of course a piece of his bio could be the joke reference:
"Mailer was married six times, and had several mistresses. He had eight biological children by his various wives, and adopted one further child." Source, Wikipedia
The backstory to these videos adds an extra level of hilarity. Silverman and Kimmel are still together. Kimmel and Damon are good friends. Kimmel has a running gag on his show about not having enough time to interview Damon.
During Kimmel’s third season — when he reportedly had trouble booking guests — he would frequently close out his show with “apologies to Matt Damon, but we ran out of time” even though Damon hadn’t even been slated to appear. [Source, AOL Television]

Can he run wire in time?
I have a new 50 foot cable in hand. Can I get it run through the outer wall, through the downstairs ceiling, and up the living room wall in 56 minutes?

My Wife’s Got Style!
Yesterday Cathy appeared on WBIR’s Style. She was interviewed a month ago or so. They edited their story very well! I really enjoyed watching Cathy, Dr. Helen, and Katie Allison Granju talk about blogging. Read WBIR’s style story on Local women share their lives one post at a time and watch the video interview. The interview includes Katie Allison Granju, Dr. Helen, and Cathy. I really thought Cathy looked great! She saw it a little differently.
