"How do we explain that this new actor playing James Bond is also James Bond and not a different guy? Oh, yes, I'm still learning to tie my shoes, I'm pretty close, I think."

Last night’s film, OUTLAND (1981). In the period between Bond & his late 1980s renaissance as older sex symbol, Sean Connery did some really Interesting films. Solid mix of low-fi SF, western & bad town noir. Could argue Connery at his best when he wasn’t firm in his footing, as seems the case here

Every time there's a goofy phrase on Wheel of Fortune that no one has ever said before, I say "Baby Fishmouth!" (RIP Bruno Kirby)

The worst thing I had to deal with today was the two seconds after I misheard someone saying "Sam Altman" as "Sammo Hung" and going "he did WHAT" before "oh, right...."
So, a good day, but damn.

If you’re a normal person who doesn’t pay attention to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, you probably aren’t aware of the bizarre goings on between the Hall and 2025 inductee Chubby Checker.

My earliest memories of Chuck Schumer were of him sending Anthony Weiner to PTA meetings (my mom: "he looks like his scenes got cut from REVENGE OF THE NERDS") and being heavily disappointed that he actually showed up and gave a loooooong speech at my HS graduation. All downhill since.
