Oh I was all caught up before Sunday night. Pretty good episode I thought but as AP Mike pointed out, the Macgyver vibe on the magnet sketch was too much

Yesterday my coworker was bragging about how he found twenty bucks, and that finding cash is a regular occurance for him. On the way to the bus last night, I found $20 on the escalator. Moral of the story: there's money everywhere. keep your eyes open.
re: Breaking Bad - I was watching season 4 today - its been a while since I finished Season 3. I forgot it was a comedy. That show is hilarious and Odenkirk deserves an Emmy or somesuch award.

Ken, have you heard David Lee Roth reading his audiobook autobiography Crazy from the Heat? Very funny/sad. There is a great MP3 floating around of just the vocal track of Running with the Devil, too...

Hi Ken. Were you channeling "the Immigrant" just then?

Based on the comments board, no-one admits to having sex. We're just sitting at home watching Breaking Bad and listening to WFMU all year long.
9:37am
ricardo montalban:
In junior high, I had a friend who always seemed to find money. Once, we caught him dropping money and pretending to find it. Many years later, I read a study that suggested that 'lucky' children seemed to attract more friends.

"I don't know you well enough for you to call me Ernest"
9:57am
Derek:
Dr Bootygrabber's acting style is very reminiscent of 'Buck' in "Boogie Nights"'.
Also calls to mind the recent movie "Hysteria", a fictionalized account of the inventors of the vibrator....
9:57am
Cheri Pi:
It's Dr. Booty Grabber to you"
9:58am
Caryn:
This reminds me of the doctor who was sued after he grabbed a patient's breast and started sucking on it. His defence was that he "was just checking the breast for cancer" and that it was an alternative for a mammogram. Big shocker, the courts didn't buy that.
9:58am

"Or you can call me by my middle name and my last name: Freaky Bootygrabber"

@Mike East: it's both disturbing and absolutely ridiculous. Seriously, you think the courts are going to believe it's "standard medical practice" to start suckling on your patient's chest like the kid in that Newsweek cover? Yeah, good luck with that.

You know, if I'd been a teen in the '70's I wouldn't have given a shit about punk and rock. Soul music would have been my preference. That had it going on. No wonder punk was going no where. Everyone talks about punk saving us from disco, but they never talk about r
10:49am

10:49am

I thought punk saved us from Classic Rock and then classic rock recovered under the guise of saving us from disco
10:49am

@Neg-guh-tor: Teens in the '60s got the full feast, soup to nuts, which included soul, R&B, rock and pop.
