Happy Halloween!

0 comments

I'm off to Miami for the weekend for my cousin's bachelor party. So, since I won't be here to scare you on the actual day itself, here is a pre-Halloween fright for you, courtesy of our fantastic graphics guy, Andy Diehl.

I'd write more but I gotta pack for the trip. And I'm also having a strange craving for brains...

Pretty Effin' Brilliant

The above is a letter from (I still can't believe it) California Governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger, to the members of the California State Assembly. This normally would be rather innocuous, but upon closer inspection if you take the first letter of each line starting with the word "For" and go down, it appears that he is saying, "Fuck You" to the assembly. I'm not sure what the chances are that it could be unintentional, but it's more fun to think it was intentional regardless, in which case, good work, Arnold.

Hmm, that reminds me, I need to write a letter or two myself. Ah, but where to start?

300,000 More Reasons to Love Bea

0 comments

It was announced earlier today that Bea Arthur has left $300,000 from her estate to The Ali Forney Center, an organization that offers housing, food, clothing and much more to LGBT homeless youth here in NYC. Bea didn't just believe in this cause in posthumously though, she actually did a free performance of her Broadway show for the center about four years ago, which I went to, even though I had seen the show already. She was brilliant, of course, and clearly it was a worth cause, too.

She isn't the only giver in these hard times, however. It should be noted that earlier today I gave 30 cents to the guy who holds the door open at the bodega...

New Yorkidelphia

The Yankees are in the World Series for the first time since 2004. Interestingly, it also the first time in five years that I didn't attend even a single game, though I guess that could just be a coincidence. In any event, it's New York v. Philadelphia. Hot dogs v. cheesesteaks. Spider-Man (from Queens) v. Rocky Balboa. Something else from NY v. something else from Philly. It's all very exciting. I'll say Yanks in seven games.

Six Pack #21 up this morning. Click here, you lazy bum, you...

First Row View

0 comments
Being big-time podcasts does have its benefits, such as yesterday, when Ben and I were seated in the first row of the audience at The View. Special thanks to my friend Tom Kelly, the warmup comedian, who gave us a shout-out and had the whole crowd give us a round of applause.

Unfortunately, we didn't get a chance to say hi to Joy and tell her about the new segment in honor of her that we debuted on episode 20 of the Six Pack, but Sherri came over and said hi which was really nice. I was gonna ask her to borrow a wig, but Ben said that'd be in poor taste.

We also were given juice and cookies before the show, which I thought was just for VIP's like us, but then I noticed even people in the upper-tier got them, too. Good for them though, they must've been hungry after climbing those stairs to get to their seats.

So, that's it for my last time at The View before being a guest. Next time I'll be on the couch and with a fruit-basket, like all the guests get. (According to my inside sources.)

Perhaps more later, there's only one way to find out...

Enjoy The View

0 comments
As the big stars we are, Ben and I are headed to The View tomorrow. Sure, maybe we're just sitting in the crowd, but remember, it's small steps people, small steps.

Last time we were there we sat literally in the first two seats of the first row, so it will be hard to top that this time. Hmm, I wonder if Whoopi wants to sit on my lap.

This will be my last time going to The View as an audience member and not a guest. C'mon Secret, don't fail me now.

Full update tomorrow afternoon..

I really can't even write funny comments for this one, it just kinda does it for itself...



Taping Six Pack tonight. There's so much going on this week that we've got more stories than you can shake a barbell at...
