When renovating a house as icky as ours was for as long as we have, you find yourself living there more often than not and yet none of your belongings reside there. Hence, when we decided to christen my new BBQ grill, we had to get a little... creative. Luckily, I only used that scraper for spackle and for scraping lead-based paint off the walls, so it was totally appropriate to use as a spatula. Damn tasty burgers.

I Miss Jack Handey

"I wish I had a Kryptonite cross, because then you could keep Dracula AND Superman away." The man is brilliant and has written a new piece for the New Yorker. (thanks to Brian at So Wrong Ago)

In addition to The Captain, I have decided to foster this lil' guy. I will love him and pet him and call him George. He's 13'1", likes children and other wiggly, crunchy things.As you can see, he can stand upright, but needs a little help. He'll learn to walk on 2 legs soon, and then I can dress him up and bring him to work with me. We'll see how many meetings I'll have to go to then. >:)

He's the Superhero to balance my Supervillain. Of course, he doesn't have any powers, so I plan on dipping him in a vat of radioactive waste and then tying a kite with a key on it to his collar during the next thunderstorm. That is, if Dinah isn't looking. And yes. Yes, that IS his name. But you can call him The Captain, Cap'n or Cap for short. And no. No, I will NOT be making a doggie cape for him. Maybe a utility collar, though.

Dane Cook is one of the funniest bastards on the planet. His comedy CDs never get old. I can't even be funny now because I keep hearing all of his jokes in my head and I'm just not that funny. ANYWAY, his new comedy CD, "Retalliation" just ROCKED the Billboard charts:

"Not since the classic Steve Martin album 'A Wild and Crazy Guy' reached No. 2 in 1979 has The Billboard 200 seen a comedy disc break the top 5. That all changes this week as Dane Cook's "Retaliation" bows at No. 4 to become the highest-charting comedy effort in 26 years. The position and first week sales of 86,000 copies are especially impressive feats for Cook, whose first set, "Harmful if Swallowed," never made it to the big chart and sold just 3,000 copies in its debut week in 2003; it has moved 300,000 to date."

So do yourself a favor, buy yourself a present, treat yourself, whatever, but buy it NOW, yo.

I HATE RUSSELL CROWE

No shock there. Seriously. I miss Romper Stomper. L.A. Confidential. The Quick And The Dead. The Insider. Gladiator. Even Virtuosity. This crap? No. "Crowe would play an investment banker who loses his job and moves to Provence to take over a failing vineyard owned by his just-deceased uncle -- a move complicated by the arrival of an unknown American cousin." Just....no.

Even their fancy-lad sidekicks (pictured right). ANYWAY in a time where Spider-Man, X-Men, Batman and Superman are doing gangbusters in the theaters, we aren't JUST limited to the mainstream super-villain bash 'em ups! In the past, good-ol-fashioned straight-up comedies like MYSTERY MEN and THE SPECIALS have featured super-lame super-heroes just trying to get by and doing so super-poorly. Just recently released was SKY HIGH (with the best cast EVER: Kurt Russell, Bruce Campbell, Lynda Carter, Dave Foley), going the route of teen-comedies and following behind it is ZOOM'S ACADEMY (featuring the lame-ass Tim Allen). But here are two that were a bit of a surprise to me when they were recently announced. Mixing the super-hero genre with the ROMANTIC element with SUPER EX, starring Uma Thurman as a super-heroine who seeks revenge on Luke Wilson, the "normal" guy that dumps her because of her baggage and not her powers. Followed by TONIGHT HE COMES, starring Will Smith as a super-hero dating a normal woman. Who knows which of those will actually pan out, but my hope is for Super Ex, if only for the reason that I can see Uma in yet another skin-tight outfit. Keep 'em comin'!!

Sweet!
