And with that, and in the absence of anything paragraph-long to say, let's bring in the dots:
In all the obituaries I've read of late 'WKRP' star Gordon Jump, not one has focused on his crucial dramatic turn as the guy who molested Dudley on Diff'rent Strokes. Courageous work, the best "sitcom star plays child molester" turn this side of Ted Danson in Something About Amelia . . . Hey, when did Beth Garrett get that haircut, U of C'ers? Just catching her on CNN right now commenting on the California debate, reminding me, yet again, that I could've done a lot better in Taxation of Individual Income . . . Speaking of which, you like saying the word "gubernatorial", don't you? . . . Sure, Isaac, I don't like Billy Crystal either, but who would you suggest? My nominees -- let Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson co-host . . . Why, Doc, why? . . . Worst part of the Emmys? I'm not sure if it was the massive overpromotion of the John Ritter tribute, or the fact that said tribute shafted Fred Rogers into a small corner of the mass necrology, rather than allow him to receive the full presentation he deserved . . . Make sure you read the Johnny Apple profile in the new New Yorker. Mmm, mangosteens. No prawns at this altitude, indeed . . . If you only order one veal dish in an Italian restaurant this month, go old school and make it parmigiana . . . Please don't puke in my Birkin bag . . . In the absence of a better candidate, isn't Alex Rodriguez (.295/.394/.599, 47 HR) the AL MVP? . . . Would it have killed John Wells to have inserted a line in last night's West Wing episode where President John Goodman said "We're talking about unchecked aggression here"? . . .
Time for sleep. Hasta, etc.
