Filed under: Video , Celebrities , Reality-Free There are very few recurring television moments that instantly grab my undivided attention: seeing an undead Billy Mays still pitching Oxy-Clean, Twilight Zone episodes that pwn Nazis, late night Skinemax. Now you can add Don Rickles to that list. He's become a staple of late night during the early Tonight Show because he's engaging, colorful and damn...

Ech. I hate early October. Always get sick in early October. On the plus side, I got myself a new keyboard (cheap too!) and Nyquil. Amusingly, the self-scan decided I should be carded for buying the crap. (Is Nyquil the drug of choice for kids these days') Depressingly, the checkout girl just waved me through rather than look at my ID. Crap. No more carding. I officially look old. Oh well. On the plus...

I'm watching C-Span, this is unbelievable. Fifty billion dollars up in smoke, and these gentlemen are saying we didn't ask anybody but Bernie. This would be comedy, if it wasn't so devastating for those swindled. Markopolos discovered it, but nobody checked. They did not even ask anybody but the burglar! Markopolos looks as clueless and smart at the same time as Don Adams, aka Maxwell Smart. I got...

We've been watching the episodes from time-to-time and one of them featured a $400,000 robotic spy fly that, of course, Smart swats with a newspaper. According to some in the wacky antiwar left, the '60s...

What a delightful surprise the modernized, updated Get Smart proved to be. As someone who worshipped the original series as a kid, and was utterly disappointed by the tone-deaf, unfunny The Nude Bomb when I saw it in the theater, I was all ready to hate this one. But I've been really impressed by Anne Hathaway for a long time (she may well become a latter-day Audrey Hepburn), think Steve Carrell is...
