CSI, the New Curse and a Personal Note to Jimmy.

OK, so it has been far too long since my last update. I am a horrible person and no longer worthy of your attention and/or time. Now that I got that stuff out of the way…

I think it’s high time that we deserve an answer as to why in the hell there can’t be a better way to plant a microphone on somebody than by taping the thing to a persons chest. It’s 2005, we can make cell phones that have iPods and car headlights that steer with the car, but your telling me that law enforcement can’t put a microphone on a Swiss watch or a ballpoint pen or something? How many more undercover operatives have to be involved in a hostage situation on TV police dramas before somebody does something about this? Seriously.

I would like everyone to take a moment to think about this as long as we are talking about police dramas: In twenty years, when an episode of CSI comes on Nick at Nite, how hard is it going to be to explain to our kids that this show was the most watched program in America for three years straight? I can see it now: “But dad, this show is so corny… You’re pulling my leg.” Then after I pull my 2030 World Almanac and show them in black and white, me and my entire generation will lose the respect of the young. On second thought, that kid should be in bed anyways, it’s a school night.

As you all know (who am I kidding?) As half of you may or may not have heard, the Red Sox were very unceremoniously eliminated from the playoffs last week. If this starts another decades long losing streak, I vote right now that we call it the curse of the Fever Pitch. If I had the power to curse people and I saw Fever Pitch, I’d curse the bastards for sure. If I had paid theater money to see it, I probably would have started a plague. It was that bad.

Note to Jimmy Fallon: GO BACK TO SNL! Quickly. You can't pick a good movie role to save your freaking life. Either go back to SNL (which needs you like crops need rain) or call Will Farrell and find out how he picks his movies and go with that formula. Better yet write a movie about Sully and Zazu and bring back the famous "Nomaaaaaaaah!" exclamations. Seriously, it's like you read the "Chris Kataan's Guide to Having a Bad Post-SNL Career." SNL will take you back. They took Ashley F. Simpson back for pete's sake! I want to like you, man. Help me to help you!

More to come folks, but that’s all for now.

RANDOM MOVIE QUOTE!
