Well, the poor old blog is limping along at the moment, which shouldn’t really be a surprise given that I’ve had impending nuptials looming. Next Sunday is the big day. I reckon we’re in pretty good shape. I pretty much just have to have a shave and I’m done. I’m feeling good. Composed, relaxed and [...]

An interview yesterday took a surprising twist when actor Jack Black unleashed a flurry of fake kung fu moves while promoting his new film, Kung Fu Panda.
“I just felt that it would liven things up if I did some whacky pretend moves,” said Black.

Well it’s a unit actually, but you get the point. It was pretty much an accident - we put in an offer that we didn’t think would make the grade, and it did. We paid a bloody fortune, and I have only the vaguest sense of the debt I’m in. To paraphrase Stewie Griffin, I’m [...]

Whitney: her name is not Susan
My post yesterday about lazy and obscure rap lyrics drew a comment that provided an answer to a question I have had since the mid-90s: what the hell were Salt n’ Pepa singing about when they said:
