* If women start using this, what will become of the leg muscles we've spent years toning through the classic hovering-to-pee pose?
* We just watched the pilots of two new Comedy Central shows, "Stella" and "Con." They were both pretty good, though I'm crossing my fingers that the average American is going to get Stella, which is funny, but weird. Definitely in the Strangers With Candy camp. (It's directly based on Stella's, live sketches.) Watch for a cameo by a Famous Actor.
Con is a reality show about a guy named Skyler Stone who cons his way through life. In the pilot (which I'm told will not be airing), he cons his way into a free lunch at McDonald's and a singing gig during the 7th Inning Stretch of a San Francisco Giants game (by claiming he was on American Idol.) He speaks directly to the camera and the show is pretty guerilla - it's more punk rock than any reality show I've seen (not that that's saying much). I think it has a good chance of succeeding. Also, Skyler Stone is cute. So there's that.
* Yes, everyone involved was amused and delighted to death by this. (And, really, what kind of pretentious-fucks-who-take ourselves-too-seriously would we be if we weren't?)
Have a nice weekend, and take some Percoset for me!
