Aaron Sorkin nails it. →

“Gay actors are in absolutely no danger of losing parts in Broadway shows, so if it were me, I’d re-direct my anger to the real problem. The honest-to-God, no kidding around, small-minded, mean-spirited, hysterically frightened, pig-ignorant bigots who don’t think homosexuals are fit to get married, adopt children or fight and die for their country. The ones who hold signs...

Thanks for My Realization Skills.

So I race onto the subway before the chimes start a-ringing (not an easy task while broken-footed, let me tell yuh). I notice an available seat, which at this time is nothing short of a miracle. Middle seat between a nice looking lady, nose inherent pocket bible and a young exec in her tweed jacket facing her friend in the perpendicular seat. Sitting down I manage to bump the young exec as well as...

With songs like “Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa” and “M79,” listeners got a taste of a band that somehow was able to release multi-layered albums with that...

just returned from family-christmas-dinner version one-point-oh. it’s amazing being in a room with people where everyone thinks they’re funnier than the next. totes took advantage of the ‘eat, drink and be merry’ mantra. luff. tha. holidaze.
