Randomness...
-Rumors are floating that Studio 60 On The Sunset Strip may not be on the air much longer. I hope that's not true. It's ironic that NBC execs recently stated that they are looking to do more reality programming...bigger audience, cheaper to produce. It's ironic given a lot of the storylines on Studio 60. I hope they give this show a chance. It's one of my favorites.
-On another ironic note, Saturday Night Live is having a very unfunny year, so far. The sitcom 30 Rock is much funnier. Go figure...
-I dislike the Ford family. Harold Ford, Jr. seems like the least idiotic of the clan. That's not saying much. However, Bob Corker is a jackass.
-I just found out today that I and a guy I now work with were at the same Brian Setzer concert in New Orleans nearly ten years ago.
-I bought a hat recently. I usually look stupid in hats (and probably do in this one) but I wear one on occasion. Usually when I'm hungover or get up late and don't have the time to blow-dry my hair. (shut up.) Usually it's a ball cap. But I bought a cooler looking "ball hat." It's got more a square quality to it...looks more like a communist rebel hat or something. The hat also makes me look less like John Lennon cause you don't see my hair. The other day at work, this 70 year old guy comes walking up and says "that's a nice hat. Where did you get that hat? That looks nice. You know what that is? That's a John Lennon hat. Yessir, that's a John Lennon hat. Nice hat."
-It's getting close to do my "Best Cd's of 2006" list. And the worst. I've done these on past blogs. These posts are always entertaining. Well, to me, at least. Some of my favorite conversations have been with myself...
-I recently ran into a guy who is on the current incarnation of Memphis Wrestling. He asked me if I would be interested in returning to co-host the weekly tv show. I blew it off. So don't look for me to be back on tv anytime soon. Although I know some of you out there would love it, just cause you would find it really funny...
-I love Arby's.
-Any bar on or just off of Poplar Ave. is really annoying. With the exception of the Hi-Tone.
-The other night, I ran into a girl who went to high school with me. She recognized me right off. I had no clue who she was and I had to actually ask her. This happens a lot. It's not that I don't remember them, per se, but I don't think about them at all anymore. Hey, I live in the moment...
-I work in the music department of a store that also sells books, so I have to help customers find books. That gives me another chance to see how really stupid people are getting. Parents come in looking for books for their kids in school. One lady asked for "1980-something" by an "Orsen, or somebody." Oh, for the love of fuck. Then another "parent" came in and asked for "Scarlet's Letters." These people are raising kids?!
-While we're talking about books and work...the other day a gal comes up to me and asks "where are the books on relationships?" I start walking her over to a section and say "we have a psychology section, which has the more clinical approach, and then we have a self-help section, which has the more pop-psychology books, like Men Are From Mars, etc." I then ask her what specifically she was looking for and she said, "I want to get a book for my boyfriend that will make him pay more attention to me." And my actual response was, "Well, you need to get a new boyfriend. That would be the first step." Eat my dust, Dr. Phil!

Sounds like fun working in a shop that sells books. Working in a music department would be more fun than working in a book department in my opinion. Thanks for the nice coments on my set.
