Maybe it's really a head bandage *disguised* as a bandana?

OK, before I say anything else, I want you all to know that I am very happy that Bret Michaels seems to have recovered nicely from his cerebral hemorrage. Really, I am. He's a cheeseball with terrible taste in women, but he also seems like he's a pretty nice guy.

So anyway, I was just wondering if anyone finds it hilarious that he's wearing his bandana in that inset photo? I bet he's got his guyliner on, too.

Men don't like to wear pants and they hate girls, or, "What I learned from this year's Super Bowl ads".

Was anyone else as underwhelmed as I was with this year's crop of Super Bowl commercials? I was doubly disappointed because for the first time in years I actually watched the game (and it was a good one - go Saints!) and was looking forward to seeing some really good ads. Like I said, disappointed!

However, while they may have been overall unimpressive, there were a few I liked.

The worst actor of his generation.

Those of you who know me and know how I feel about Nicholas Cage (hate him!*) will not be surprised by how much I LOVE this:

"Nicolas Cage is completely broke. One theory is that he spent money more frivolously than the people who paid to see Wicker Man in theaters. Our theory at Gawker.TV is that he is the worst actor ever. Here's proof."

* With the notable exception of Raising Arizona

I think I love those boys. I want to watch the show with them!

You Must Yearbook Yourself!

If you haven't already, check out Yearbook Yourself. I laughed til I cried. Well, maybe not that much, but it's pretty damn funny.

Here are some of my better years:

1964 (the year I was born!):



1970, still searching for my racial identity:



1978, my favorite:



1986 (the year I graduated from college!):

And last but not least, the year 2000 (I look like a baby!):

TV Talk: Post-Emmy Edition

For someone who loves TV as much as I do, you'd think that Emmy night would be a big deal for me. It isn't.

I "watch" the Emmys (and other award shows) online, on the day after they aired. I just can't be bothered with sitting there for hours, watching the awards go to either the same old, boring people (Jon Cryer? Really?) or to shows and actors that I don't watch (Mad Men, Breaking Bad, 30 Rock...and nowadays, that accounts for most of the winners and nominees, I'm afraid to admit). And for some reason, the older I get, the more self-congratulatory these award shows feel to me.

Instead, I read recaps by my favorite TV bloggers, look at the red carpet pictures, and watch the highlights on YouTube and the like. Isn't the Internet a wonderful thing?

From what I hear, Neil Patrick Harris did a fabulous job hosting, and Michael Emerson won! YES! YES! And I read that Ricky Gervais was very funny, and there was even a Dr. Horrible clip! Cool.

Let's see if I can find some good videos to share...
