If anyone's got some sleazy liaisons in his past, I'm guessing it's Maher given his fondness for the Playboy Mansion over the years.

Spring's arriving down here in Oz and the lime blossoms are blooming. Should I save you some?

Is commenting fucked today? I am having all sorts of issues. That comment above was supposed to be in reply to someone else.

As for commenting - according to my profile, my ability to comment is not enabled. Which is curious. Don't think I've said anything more offensive than usual lately. And, clearly, I am still able to comment. Colour me confused.

Actually he is. He's THE most closeted jew ever. Saw Billy Crystal ask Dave about his Bar Mitzvah. This was in the 80's. He answered in the affirmative and then quickly moved on. The audience giggled thinking it was a joke. Since then, I watched Dave squirm everytime some comedian gets his Jewdar going. One will typically say something in yiddish and follow with "but of course you have no idea what that means". Watch for it. Its fun. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think he is a yid.

I really like the Saturday open thread being back, as an aside.
10/03/09
That's kind of the problem with the weekends compared to weekdays. I don't know what you can do about it but it doesn't flow as smoothly. The posts seem fine but too many of the weekend commenters don't seem to get the tone of the place. The percentage of overly earnest comments goes way up, which is really annoying, at least to me. Maybe you should make them take an Improv class or two before giving them commenting privileges.
One suggestion - Get people coming back to check in on regular topics. It will create traffic and more community. This open thread might be a good one. I think Phyllis's wedding announcements post is fantastic. Maybe you can find another anchor tenant for the weekend to build the other posts around.
And take care of your regular commenters - they can be your best allies.

1. A post specifically designated the "drunk" post, so that commenters who have had a few too many (myself, for instance) will have someplace to go to ramble on about who the fuck knows what; and
2. A post that baits the red-highlighted Glenn Beck nutjobs into spewing their craziness, so that us drunk libruls (myself, for instance) will have someplace to go to ramble on about how southerners are all bible thumping, gun toting weirdos with minimal education and maximum toothlessness.
Otherwise, nicely done, keep up the good work!

I really don’t know what’s better or worse, but when it comes to rock clubs, you can’t live in the past.
But man, I am VERY pissed that NYU forced the Bottom Line out and made way for what? "Violet Cafe" or some junk like that? The Bottom Line has tremendous historic significance, and NYU knew that and forced them out.
Oh, and the Palladium... I pass by those dorms and just cringe. That’s the best NYU can do? Gut a place, kill it’s purpose and just create more housing for students?
I mean NYU was always a very liberal arts focused school and they owned theses historic properties and did squat with them. I find that sick.
