Back from the beyond

Crazy Rosie

Apparently in an effort to transform her magazine “Rosie” into something “edgier,” Rosie O’Donnell told editors she wanted covers featuring boxer and convicted rapist Mike Tyson, parent-killer Lyle Menendez, and actor/murder suspect Robert Blake.

You can’t make this stuff up, people.

Robot sweat

Get Your War On says that Coke “tastes like robot sweat.” Which, while being an amazingly accurate description, doesn’t dull my love for it. (The “robot sweat” comment, if you’re looking for it, is in the long comic that stretches off the right side of the page.)

This reminds me of the episode of “Cheers” where Rebecca Howe goes to a “Stop Smoking” clinic.

Rebecca: At one point, the instructor took a lit cigarette and put it out in the yolk of a fried egg.
Woody: Did that work?
Rebecca: Well, it’s put me off fried eggs for good.

Zell Miller

So Sen. Zell Miller (D-Georgia) has taken this moment to trash the Democratic presidential candidates with personal attacks, and announce that he will endorse George Bush in 2004. Miller told Sean Hannity that Bush “reminded me of Churchill.”

Miller just happens to be retiring from the Senate next year. He also has a new book out, “A National Party No More: The Conscience of a Conservative Democrat,” that he was shilling on “Meet the Press” this morning.

What a fucking coward.

Scenes from my day 2

Scenes from my day

My mother and I are having lunch at Macaroni Grill, which actually has decent food despite being a chain. There’s some untranslated Italian on the menu.

Mom: Here, read this – you know Spanish.
Me: That’s not Spanish, that’s Italian.
Mom: Well, it’s pretty much the same thing.
Me (laughing): No, it’s not!
Mom (trying to turn the tables): …Anyway, I forgot – you don’t really know Spanish at all, do you?
