Johnny Depp seems just so darned sweet. I wish I had a pocket like a kangaroo so I could carry him around with me.

"A source relates that the argument erupted over some stereo equipment missing from the house. Griffin, at 5'7" and 135 pounds, attempted to take down his father with a wrestling hold. Ryan, 42, countered as Ryan often has since competing in the Los Angeles Golden Gloves of 1956 and '57. Though six inches taller, at least 30 pounds heavier and presumably 23 years wiser, Dad, sources say, threw a punch with his left fist that knocked out two of Griffin's front teeth. The boy fled to a friend's house, where he blurted that he never wanted to see his father again."

People Magazine, August, 1883

@PandoraSpocks: Muy bien. Unemployment predicted to rise to almost 20% in the next year (albeit, much of that in the construction sector, pop goes the bubble.)But that of course has a ripple effect through the whole economy, including yours truly. At least I've got not only national but cheap private health insurance to keep me stoked to the gills on Wellbutrin and tranx to survive the partial employment.

Hey,how's things for folks in other countries?

Kendra's show is really unwatchable. She's not only dumb but incredibly boring.

Probaly a stupid question but: How do two blondes (O'Neal and Fawcett) produce a redheaded child?? I think O'Neal was vaguely strawberry-blondish in his younger years, but not nearly as red as his son.

@Understater: The genes for red hair are recessive, meaning both parents can carry the gene without expressing it.

@Understater: Both parents have to have red hair gene in their family. I know a few where the red skipped a bunch of generations because someone married someone without it and then a grandchild marries someone with it and viola! A ginger appears.

SNL is America's version of zany Mexican comedy programs, except without the kitsch -- and more jokes about poor people and fatties.

@GoldenShowersFillYourEyes: I find it funny too, and I agree that the humor genre of "white guys pretending to be black, hardy har har" is pretty tired. But what makes me laugh with this is how ridiculously he sings the songs, like they're showtunes or something. The joke is about his intermittent bursts of extreme dorkiness, not just the fact that he's white.

So, SNL will never , ever be seen again by anyone outside America? The election sketches were all a tease?

Is this this all part of some elaborate plot to protect the performers from having their SNL work seen by Europeans for fear we'll never hire them from anything?

Like, that's a fear but what the hell? Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy can't we see them? I know they're shit but I want to be able to experience the shit for myself!

@Calraigh: It's weird. If it's a contractual thing then why did we used to be able to watch all the SNL clips up until about 2 or 3 weeks ago? Then there was that weekend when hulu let us watch the SNL digital shorts but that didn't last either. Now there is really no reason to visit the NBC site for non-US visitors. Surely that's going to reduce their advertising revenue? I wish they'd make their stance clear.

@londoner: I don't know what the story is with Hulu.I've never been able to watch anything on it. As for NBC, what gives? It's lots of studios though. CW (please don't ask me about my unfathomable and shameful penchant for Tom Welling) can't be watched either. Does anyone have a definitive explanation as to why US networks limit their access? I just can't see how it makes any business sense.

@Calraigh: You furriners need to try proxies that make it "look" like you're here in the US.

Try [www.downloadsquad.com] and download HotSpot Shield. I can't test if it works since I am already in the US. There's also a site called OpenHulu which you can use once you download Hotspot shield.

Well, I can't watch stuff on the BBC site, so that evens things out a bit. Not much, but a bit :) Can't say I even know what the CA broadcasters site(s) are.

The difference is, you get shit adapted for your audiences, à la Little Britain USA and we just hear about the shit.
