The room fairly bristled with beards, mustaches and super-Mod dress.

A Short List of Truths Which Are Self-Evident

--The best Rolling Stones are the 70s heroin Rolling Stones. 

--Paul O'Neill is the best baseball commentator. 

--If somebody starts an Internets comment with "Um," then they're about to be a smug dick about something. 

--Farmer Boy and The Long Winter are the best Little House books (although it's a really crowded, top-heavy field so the margins aren't big)

--There is no kind of competition or sport that money and television cannot ruin

--Carrie Fisher had the world's best hair and sweetest smile, back in the day

In re: item the fifth, I'm going to see said competition, in large part to see just how this goes down. Leerily anticipating 2010-level drama and angst. Probably won't be a tremendously fun time.

In re: item the fourth, woefully insufficient data. I'd like to rectify this.

c. fisher is a bad ass. she worked on her one-woman show at our theater to get the kinks out and was awesome. makes me think she's the kind of up-front ball buster you want for your favorite aunt or something.

Oh, I would love to know her IRL, wouldn't you? I loved her one-woman show (saw it on HBO or whatever), and she was great on 30 Rock (remember, she was the subject of Jack warning Liz, "Never go with a hippie to a second location.").
