Tom Snyder 1936-2007
Tom Snyder of late night television fame passed away on Sunday, July 29, 2007. He had been battling with Leukemia since 2005, he was 71 years old at the time of his death.
Tom was a leader in late night television and has been given credit for his work by such greats as David Letterman. He appeared on late night television twice in his career, first with The Tomorrow Show, and several years later with The Late, Late Show which is now hosted by Craig Ferguson.
I was just a kid when Tom was at his peak in the 70’s and [...]
Week 12 Preview: Titans vs. Jets
Two of the AFC’s best will battle at LP Field on Sunday, as the 10-0 Tennessee Titans “welcome” the 7-3 New York Jets. After a lackluster 1-2 start, the Jets have gone 6-1 to currently sit alone atop the highly competitive AFC East. While it hasn’t always been pretty, the Jets quarterback has been able to limit his mistakes enough to win ball games, and played superbly in New York’s 34-31 OT victory against the Patriots in New England. Favre will face his toughest challenge of the season in the

Second Ship
And speaking of coincidences, I just read a second piece with the same title: "Ship of Fools." This one describes last year's wingnut wankfest, aka the National Review cruise, and it is alternately horrifying and wonderful. Link via teh Sadlys, who have kicked off their coverage of this year's cruise, which appears to have finished just recently. Their title? "Jonah Ark." Also awesome. [Added] I hadn't heard of Johann Hari, the author of the "Ship of Fools" piece, so I Googled him. Here's t
Finally Friday
We are one week away from what is known in retail parlance as "Black Friday," traditionally the heaviest shopping day of the year. Since Mr. Folkie and I saw Zach and Miri Make a Porno,, I can't help remembering the scene where Delaney, who is black, is told by the boss that he has to work on Black Friday. The tirade that follows is both bizarre and hilarious--typical Kevin Smith. Can You See the Sunset brings us some tunes from the stack of CDs from his overflowing mailbox--a hazard of music
Barak Obama’s Not Perfect

What's On Tonight:
Diane Sawyer likely turn on her screwed up face of concern tonight on "20/20" (ABC, 10 p.m.), while talking to Ashley Dupre, the 23-year-old best known for upending the career of someone she knew as Client No. 9. With former attorney general Elliott Spitzer back a bit in the public eye (with a piece in the Washington Post Sunday about the Wall Street meltdown), here comes the employee at Emperor's Club V.I.P. that meant his fall. "If it wasn't me," she tells Sawyer, "It would have been someone
Economy is so bad it’s funny
“Over 7,000 presidential appointments are up for grabs. The Obama administration is making history once again by being the only place in America that is currently hiring.” - Stephen Colbert “I don’t want to say things look bad, but Barack Obama’s new slogan, ‘Maybe we can.’” - Jay Leno “We already know his economic plan. It’s designed to help small businesses that make under $250,000 a year. You know, like General Motors and Chrysler.” - Craig Ferguson “Thanksgiving just around the corner. .
Quote of the Day
Brother David Steindl-Rast : Gratefulness is the key to a happy life that we hold in our hands, because if we are not grateful, then no matter how much we have we will not be happy -- because we will always want to have something else or something more.Me:As I sit here doing this blogging, and reading the gratitude quotes from which I chose the above, my TV is on, the Craig Ferguson Show, and a woman was playing piano and singing. I don't know who she is, but she is wonderful. The music was so

11.20.08: Night at the Museum sequel pics, White House butler's story goes to Sony, and more
Night at the Museum has a legion of haters, but it was cute enough (as a rental, at least, which is how I saw it) and "Gum gum dum dum?" can still be heard around my house from time-to-time. In any event, it made oodles of money, and USA Today has the first official pictures from the Smithsonian-set sequel, showing Stiller with under-appreciated SNL star Bill Hader (who is playing General George Custer). I happened to walk by Hader and his posse the other week, and the man has presence. By
Late Night Funnies
One touching moment the other night during Barack Obama’s speech. Oprah was crying, did you see that? Jesse Jackson was crying. Hillary Clinton was crying. I think Hillary’s still crying, if I’m not mistaken. (Jay Leno) FOX news reported today that the election never happened. It was all just a dream. (Tim Hunter) And political analysts are saying today that Barack Obama’s win was unprecedented. Which again confused President Bush. He said, “Unprecedented? You mean, he didn’t win? He got

Lessons in Patience: Antivirus Programs
In most of life, there is no free lunch. When the free lunch is presented, it should be thoroughly examined, as the ingredients just might be tainted. What do I mean by that? There are several free antivirus solutions, AVG, AntiVir, ClamWin, and perhaps a couple more that are less known. None of them are truly great, and none are truly terrible. Other than basic frugality, I have been, in the last 5 or so years, using a free solution because the paid versions of antivirus software are no picni

Morning Deal Report: The Butler Did It
America has elected its first African-American president, so what better time to bring the story of “A Butler Well-Served by This Election” to the screen? Sony snapped up the feature rights to this true story “a dozen days after the Washington Post published Wil Haygood's front-page report on Eugene Allen's 34 years at the White House. Allen worked for eight presidents, starting with Harry Truman in 1952 and ending in 1986 with Ronald Reagan,” Variety reports. Highlights of the story include N

And I would like to read it to discover if this may be part of my problem. But I can’t concentrate long enough to read more than a few pages. What do you think? I read a few paragraphs to Beth and she says I do not have ADD. And case closed, too, for that matter. She doesn’t need to think about it. She doesn’t need to read the book. She just know
Late Night Tuesday 11/18/08
The Tonight Show with Jay Leno It’s reported that Barack Obama’s new attorney general is going to be Eric Holder. Here is what we know about him: His name is Eric Holder. It’s being reported that Hillary Clinton will accept the position of secretary of state. Actually this works out great for the Clintons. While Hillary is concentrating on foreign affairs, Bill can get back to concentrating on domestic affairs. Barack Obama says one of his top priorities once he becomes president is closing down
