Come See Convoy At SF Sketchfest This Weekend
Convoy is packing our bags (along with our friend Kiss From Daddy, The Birthday Boys, Doug Jones, and Marvin Berry) and heading up to San Francisco this weekend for Sketchfest. We got two shows, one tonight and one of Saturday so if you’re looking for some comedy come on out.
Here’s all the details:

You know, I think there’s a bigger risk letting inmates buff up in a gym/weight room/exercise yard then letting them buff up their experience points and acquiring fictional weapons in D&D.

Is It Just Me Or Do The Later Seasons of Roc Sound...
Keep in mind both shows were set in Baltomore. This is taken from Roc’s wikipedia entry.
“As it progressed, the series adopted a more dramatic tone…featuring social commentaries on gang activities, violence among youths, the consequences of drug use on childbirth, and the plight of African-Americans in the United States.
One of the central problems around town was the arrival...

Wow, pretty sobering words from Krugman. The sad thing is I’m starting to get more and more nervous that he’s right.
WatchThe cold open from Conan’s first Tonight Show is still one of the best cold opens I’ve ever seen. Too bad NBC is going back on their promise and not giving Conan a chance to flourish on one of televisions greatest institutions.
Bacon Wrapped Bacon AKA My Head Just Exploded →
From Jonathan Gold’s review of Fig
“And as to that bacon-wrapped bacon … the bacon, the inner part, appears as a thick, braised slab of belly fat, sweetly smoke-pungent and soft as a gentle sigh. The second bacon, encasing its brother in a mummy wrap, is crisp and thin, a bacon of texture as opposed to a bacon of substance, likely to shatter at the touch of a fork. “

If this line-up is even close to true this year’s Coachella is going to be amazing.

HOLY FUCKING SHIT!!!!!
There’s seems to be a race over which of my recent posts is more popular. Will it be anger at a judge’s ruling over the murder of an abortionist or Jennifer Love Hewitt’s sparkling vagina? Only time will tell.
Jennifer Love Hewitt Bedazzled Her Vagina (VIDEO) →
Oh and just so you think I’m not letting things get too serious over here this popped up on The Huffington Post. Quick heads up, that headline addition of “(video)” isn’t what you think it might be and also features George Lopez.

In case you want to get really really angry about something that could matter WAY more than who is going to host The Tonight Show then I’d like to direct you to this story. It seems that the Kansas judge in the trial of the man who murdered abortion doctor George Tiller has “granted a defense motion to allow the jury to decide if Scott Roeder can be convicted of voluntary...

MATTHEWS: I just wanted to get the Republican bragging points straight here. So the Republican Party has kept us safe, except for 9/11. Is that the argument? No, really, because you had the worst attack on the American homeland in history, but you`re bragging about your ability to defend the country because you say — you defended America, except for 9/11. That`s your defense, right?

11:35pm-12:05am: Jay Leno 12:05am-1:05am: Conan O’Brien 1:05am-2:05am: Jimmy Fallon
Not terrible, but not great. Still, this is basically NBC telling Conan we don’t think you’re good enough for 11:30.

Now as long as NBC replaces all those empty slots with sitcoms and dramas and NOT reality shows the Fall 2010 season could be a good place for actors/writers/directors.

Be prepared for Bond to fight his most beautiful villain ever filmed, a plastic bag blowing in the wind. Watch out Bond, if it lands over your face you might suffocate!

Baffling.
Post-Apocalyptic Toyota For Trade →
If anyone needs a “new” car my friend is offering his to be traded. Here’s the info. Please note, this is not a bit.
“Have you ever wanted to own a 1990 Toyota Camry with no doors? Look no further, friend- I’ve got just the thing..
I have a new car now, and as much as I genuinely enjoy driving around in a post-apocalyptic sedan I do not have room to keep it any...
What was the LA Midnight song?
It’s was “I Want You Back.” We had no iChat link since by 11:30 we were in dance party mode and everyone was too drunk to get the set up to work.
daisyrosario:
Can anyone let me know?
I don’t know if there ended up being iChat. I went crazy dancing then almost threw up/fainted because I got overheated and then way too cold when I went to get air.
