That was not his best material. Nor is this yours. Defensiveness is unbecoming.

You know that unfunny Chris Kattan character who slurs his words so much nobody can figure out what he's saying?

I think Stiller is frequently very unfunny. And I think Mike Myers is funny maybe 15% of the time.

Kattan was often quite unfunny. "Mango" comes to mind.

I totally agree, but I am on record as hating Ben Stiller. His schtick is more tired than Wonk's. And Mike Myers is so overanimated -- he just never turns it off.

Despite my general distaste for Ben Stiller and mere tolerance for Owen Wilson, I actually liked both of them in the Royal Tenenbaums.

Agreed. Any movie that breaks into an a cappella version of "Skyrockets in Flight" to explain what Love is -- well, it's not aspiring to true art. Sit back, watch, chuckle, and you can almost hear your brain cells die. What's a better way to spend an evening?

I haven’t read Gravity’s Rainbow, but it sounds Vonnegutesque, so I might. I love Vonnegut. Perfect for those with short attention spans who want constant interesting asides.
As it happens, I picked up a copy of Gravity's Rainbow just yesterday. Maybe the inspiration was thoughts of running dinosaurs, or perhaps that I was in City Lights, and felt pressured to get it or else I'd be stuck buying a Gregory Corso collection. Book review to come, though probably a couple of months hence.

There will be no post with 200000 on it, as there is no post with 100000 on it. Its a spurious victory. Plus the thing you said.

Congrats!


ETA: Based on the post numbers that come up when linking to a post, Hank got it. RT was the post after Hank's. (But I note that the official 200,000 Hank post is called post 200,950 b/c of the disappearing Politics board fiasco and any meglomaniacal deletions that may or may not have occurred.)

After deep contemplation worthy of Bush's Crawford musings on stem cells, P. Diddy has dropped the P.

Sure, some may mock, but I think the man's on to something. In fact, I myself have noticed that having both "Gatti" and "gap" in my name has gotten between me and my cyberspace fans. We've got to simplify it. Now, with it just being "Gatti," we won't have half the crowd off the mark in the concert halls. Now, everyone can just chant "Gatti."

Re: Will Farrell sucks. I can list 10 skits on SNL in which he was absolutely hilarious:

-- Blue Oyster Cult - More Cowbell
-- Any time he is Robert Goulet
-- Dodge Stratus
-- Get off the shed!
-- The Lovahs
-- As George Bush
-- Celebrity Jeopardy
-- As Harry Caray
-- As James Lipton
-- Old Prospector Gus Chiggins (only on the "Best of..." DVD)


Plus, any time he appears on Conan O'Brien (especially as Goulet).

Phil Hartman can compete. So can Chris Farley. Not many others from 1990 on can even come close.

Speaking of, I found an improbable interview of Conan O'Brien, by Bob Costas, on Larry King last night. I realized that I've not watched O'Brien for several years now, and from the various clips they've played, it looks like I've missed some good bits. Oh, America waits anxiously for the day when he replaces Leno in 2009 and is shown an hour earlier -- well, I probably still won't watch it.

Carry on.

My trainer finished the Leadville, Coloardo 100 mile mountain biking race on Saturday in 8 hours and 58:11 minutes. He'd never done it before and his goal was to finish under 10 and a half hours.

The ONLY drawback in an otherwise perfect race was that he had a flat with four miles to go, and he probably lost four or five minutes fixing the flat. I pointed out that everyone else runs the risk of having deal with flats, so it doesn't make his awesome finish any less impressive. He agreed.

How much cash could he get for his used vibrator? I suppose there's a niche market for those who appreciate his O'Reilly action, but still.

I remember doing the NorCal duathlon series several years back. I came off the run in the chase pack, which was 4-5 guys, with the lead group about 1 minute up and with 4-5 guys. On the bike I had my head down and was more or less just following one of the other guys. Apparently he took a wrong turn, our group followed. Arguably we cut distance off the course with our route (although there was an argument about whether our route was the same distance). Anyway, after the race I turned myself in to be disqualified, but the race directors did not DQ the offending group, but rather awarded two first place awards (I think I finished 5th so I was out of the money either way).

I remain of the opinion that was a crap decision. You have a set course and a set finish line without ambiguity or it taints the whole competition.

Playgirl's hunks? The hairy, chubby & poor!



BY RIVKA BUKOWSKY
DAILY NEWS WRITER

Forget waxed chests and rock-hard abs. A new survey finds ladies like their men scruffy, a wee bit chubby - and definitely not a metrosexual.
Playgirl asked 2,000 of its readers what they find sexy in a man and the answers were surprising: 42% said they thought love handles were kind of sexy and 47% approved of chest hair.

The mag, which often features toned, hairless males in its beefcake photo spreads, is now searching for a man who meets readers' standards.

Average Joes everywhere can send photos to models@playgirlmag.com to compete for a shot at a pictorial in a future issue.
