Speaking of Joey...

Katie Holmes is dating Tom Cruise???

This has to be one of the more incongruous celebrity couples of all time.

Joining the Propertied Class

My apartment building is going condo, and today I put down a deposit to buy a two-bedroom later this summer for an ungodly amount of money (although somewhat less ungodly than some comparable places).

God I feel old.

A True Classic

The episode of Dawson's Creek with Joey and the mugger is truely some of the greatest television that has been or will be produced in our generation. It was on TBS this morning and, like the train wreck that it is, I could not look away. Joey's witty banter with her mugger was as entertaining as ever, yet the "sucking chest wound" was still just as surprisingly absent. The end was.... well.... still touching (I take it I don't need to describe it). Anyway, it has to be one of the best episodes of the Creek, if not the best. Yes, there was no Busy, no Duck Girl, no Pasty, no van der Beef - but what more does one need than Katie Holmes and a mugger singing in sweet harmony?

And speaking of that - my passion for pina coladas extends to making and drinking pina coladas, but serving them was never my passion. Bill, I'm afraid you're on your own with the glassware problem. Those big margarita glasses would probably be good.

Holy Crap

The Japanese have walkers!



We need to close the walker gap immediately.
