I didn’t actually watch “This Weak” on the Goebbels network yesterday, so I was spared the ordeal of looking at Roger Ailes in HD. There was one Tweet (that’s what you call it, right?) that said “Roger Ailes on “This Week” looked like he wanted to enslave Arianna in his harem and freeze Paul Krugman in carbonite.” I thought that was pretty funny (I guess you either get that one or don’t). Speaking of Jabba the Hut, I watched “Embedded<\/a>” last night. It was very well written and staged, and Tim Robbins looked great in his Rush Limbaugh fat suit. <\/p>\n

According to the teevee, the Grammy’s were last night. Has it been a year already? It seems like just yesterday that some guy I never heard of beat the crap out of some woman I never heard of (though I think she was named after a song Stevie Nicks wrote), which was somehow related to the Grammy Awards. This year, Beyonc\u00c3\u00a9 (who I have actually heard of, though I’m totally unfamiliar with any of her songs (that’s what they call ’em, right?) except for the one the one that goes “lemmee lemmee lemmee up-up-upgrade upgrade ya,” that they used for a DirecTV commercial (it was kind of annoying, really) set a new Grammy record for winning 6 Grammies. Seems like the Beatles should have won more than that – but I reckon maybe there were fewer categories back then (when, as my mother used to say, music was music). I have no idea what else went on, except I heard that Taylor Swift (actually heard of her, too; saw her on SNL one night. Not bad for a white chick) won album of the year (can’t have been a very good year for albums), and I guess they weren’t quite done exploiting Michael Jackson and his kids. Hopefully, “this is it.”<\/p>\n

What with all the uppy downy temperature-wise this weekend, my poor old knees are killing me. I’m walking around like Fred Sanford here (fortunately, thanks to the place where I cut myself with a hacksaw, whatever the hell it is I stepped on that now seems to be stuck in my foot, the place where I slashed my palm with a ple, and the plywood splinter that seems to have embedded itself a few inches down into my finger, my knee pain is much less noticeable this morning). I’ve been considering installing Zerk fittings so I can shoot some grease in there. Or maybe just a hypodermic full of Teflon spray. I guess I need to spend a little time in the schwitzer and cook ’em up a bit.<\/p>\n

Not now, though. Now it’s time to go.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
