In no order of importance, here are some random thoughts:
I wish I knew who, but someone from North of the Border compared Canada to the USA. He said, “Living in Canada is like having an apartment over a meth lab.”
I never watch movies set in arctic conditions. I so hate cold weather that even watching others brave brutal sub-zero conditions is uncomfortable for me. Are there genres you can’t watch for the same reason? Meanwhile, it was warmer yesterday in Minneapolis than Los Angeles.
I really miss restaurants. But not enough.
Months ago there was absolute hysteria over COVID and now people won’t even wear masks.
So now Trump's Chief of Staff and the advisor overseeing his campaign legal challenges have both contracted the coronavirus. If Alanis Morissette is reading, that is ironic.
I have a lot of leftover Halloween candy this year. No, it won’t go to waste.
Thanksgiving won’t be the same this year without 20,000 college students stranded at O’Hare for two days.
“A lawsuit without provable facts showing a statutory or constitutional violation is just a tweet with a filing fee.” —Justin Levitt, a professor at Loyola Law School in Los Angeles.
And to that end comes this commentary from Keith Olbermann. I couldn't have said it any better or more curmudgeonly myself.
If they keep moving movie release dates back, pretty soon they’re all going to become period pieces.
When do you think Melania's going to file for divorce? January 20 or 21st?
Gee, the NBC pandemic sitcom didn’t fly. Who the hell wants pandemic entertainment? Earlier this year networks feverishly snapped up a bunch of pitches for pandemic projects. I can imagine a meeting taking place now. “Well, we miscalculated with pandemic pilots. Let’s turn our attention to something the public really wants to see. How about “losing health insurance” sitcoms? Buy seven of ‘em.”
It’s idiotic for MLB to give Cy Young Awards to pitchers who started like ten games.
By the way, the World Series is not settled. Tampa Bay is demanding a recount on Game 7.
I’m not usually star struck but one day in the Paramount commissary Sean Connery walked in. My jaw hit the ground. My favorite Sean Connery quote: "I was the first actor to play James Bond. I was also the last actor to play James Bond."
Another day in the commissary I was lunching with young writers and Tony Curtis came in. None of them knew who he was. And this was twenty years ago. (Note: Google him. He was a big movie star.)
Why do actors get tattoos? Won’t that limit the parts they can play? Imagine in GONE WITH THE WIND having to explain why Scarlett O’Hara has a python on her arm.
