There's an old adage that time flies when you're having fun. Another says you should stop and smell the roses while you can. Then there's the concept that life moves at an alarmingly fast pace once you get older. I'm not sure what "older" is exactly but it seems to be around the time when one lays down for a nap and seemingly wakes up four ( Read more... )

As certain as the sun rising the east and Brett Favre annoying me in everything he does after his "retirement," fall television billboards have begin to take over my neighborhood. Some are good, some are bad, but nothing yet is quite up to the brilliance of Lost's first season and last year's Gossip Girl OMFG. That being said, I've heard through ( Read more... )

I'll never forget where it happened. I was sitting in my car on the 101 freeway, heading towards Silverlake. I had just passed the Capitol Records building in Hollywood and was enjoying a nice standstill in traffic, then it hit me. I live here. I live in Los Angeles ( Read more... )

I love dance, though, so I'm giving in and posting my Top 5 Favorite Dances from this season's SYTYCD in honor of this season's finale on Wednesday. These are in no particular order.

Last night at the PaleyFest - Fringe! Museum clip? Dawson's Creek Breakfast Club episode from season one - ha! Big screen epsiode? "The Transformation" a.k.a. Porcupine Man. Panel is the three musketeers, Jbrams, Roberto, Alex and two other producer guys. And I call him Jbrams because that's what Jennifer Garner called him at the Alias Paley ( Read more... )

Back from Big Love night at PaleyFest. Man oh man, there is only one Harry Dean Stanton. And he is pissed Roman is dead. They showed a clip package of the whole 3rd season rather than a single episode, which was cool. It was also cool that Grace Zabriskie and the cast were in the row right behind me watching it.
