Heading to Times Square… to go to work. Ugh.
That’s a peach, hon.
3 hours ago I was enjoying the scent of a crisp New England evening. Now, I’m wafting in the scent of the backseat of a NYC taxi cab.
Bought myself the new edition of the AP Stylebook as an X-Mas present. God, when did I become “that guy?”
Ugh. Amtrak back to NYC in a couple of hours.
Getting new glasses
Stuffed… but I still have room for dessert.
Xmas shopping start time: 1:40. Xmas shopping end time: 2:47. I love it when a plan comes together.
Listening to “A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector” while copy editing. One of the best X-mas albums ever. Wall-of-Sound-tastic!
HIred goons?
Old plan: wake up early and go Xmas shopping. New plan: wake up at 2 and push Xmas shopping off until tomorrow… or Monday.
Djing at Flute from 10 to 2 tonight.
Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together… mass hysteria!
The best Jean-Claude Van Damme interview,with awkward double entendres and uncomfortable pick-up lines, you’ll read today. http://is.gd/8kHX
Nice tax plan, Paterson. Load up the car, kids. We’re moving to Jersey.

The BennyHillifier adds “Yakety Sax” to any YouTube video: http://is.gd/bug3 I did one with the “Bush Shoe- throwing” vid http://is.gd/bOlo
It’s a beautiful spring day… in December… in New York City.
Almost done DJing tonight. Need to get my sleep as there’s work to be done tomorrow (i.e. drinking beer, dressed like a reindeer).

Winter Beater
From urbandictionary.com:
“Winter Beater — An older piece of shit vehicle that you use to get through the winter while your nicer vehicle is in storage protected from the elements of snow and salt.”
Why a beater might come in handy:
An M&M punctuated Chicken Soup lunch was a bad idea.
Wondering why Blagojevich hasn’t called me yet about my Illinois Senate seat.
Found out today that Uncle Phil from “Fresh Prince” was the voice of Shredder on the old “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” cartoon. Mind blown.

BeTaMaXMaS: All the cheesy, low-production holiday programming from the 1980’s, complete with a TV Guide of upcoming programming, and a set of bunny-ears to fine tune the station.
However, if the creators of this site wanted to stay true to my childhood memories of the ol’ TV set, it would let me do that trick of off-setting the TV one channel from the cable box, thereby allowing me...
At Kane at the Bacardi Holiday Party. Free booze and half naked “Mrs. Clauses” are in abundance.
If you’ve come up to me tonight while I was DJing and asked for a request, there’s a good chance I wanted to sock you in the jaw.
From Wikipedia:
“As part of a running gag during Rudd’s appearances on Late Night With Conan O’Brien, Conan frequently shows a clip from the infamous film Mac and Me, where the wheelchair-bound Eric (Jade Calegory) flies off a cliff while Mac watches on, instead of showing clips from the actual movie Rudd is there to promote.”

And, for your viewing...
Bentley from The Jeffersons died. http://is.gd/amPE Friday ruined.
I think I’m a shoe-in for the annual “Worst Posture in the Office” award.
I’d like to punch today in the face.

Hooray! Another unnecessary remake of a movie that still holds up after 27 years. Let’s get Patrick Stewart to play Hobson. and The 2008 King of Secretary Music, John Mayer, can cover The 1980s King of Secretary Music, Christopher Cross, with “Arthur’s Theme.” Liza Minnelli can cameo and then the whole damn thing can flop and be consigned to the discounted DVD bin at...
What is with the terrible, terrible new search bars embedded on YouTube clips?
On the iPod: Bobby Bland’s “Ain’t No Love In The Heart of the City”.
Ugh, headache.
No paper warts though...
Build-a-Beard workshop. A noble cause for sure, but I’ll support any charity that allows me to print out and wear a Lemmy from Motorhead paper moustache.
