A rant that's voluntarily read? Really?
Well okay.
Today I had a black forest ham sandwich on pumpernickel with a side salad of soy beans and cucumbers.
You still here?
Okay.
After that I went down to the Writer's Guild of America strike so that I might glimpse my idol, Tina Fey. Alas she wasn't there but it was damn exciting and I did get to see Amy Poehler. I may have stared slightly as she seemed afraid of me. Maybe it was my maniacle smiling. I feel for the plight of no back end points on DVD sales. Seems boring to the rest of the world, surely. But I get it. Someone in the crowd overheard me say the name of my agency's boss and misunderstood that it was a network. A coordinator came running over handing me a card asking me to join the cause. I saw in his face the let down when I explained that yes, I'm a writer, not for TV per se. Ah well. It was cool. Right up until I smelled the lady in front of Sax. I mean wild animals don't even smell like this. Why she was yelling the N word at the ambulance confused me. But I thought about the rest of her rant..."they don't take you to a real hospital!" Wow. Some ambulance must have taken her for a scary ride at some point. Then I felt sorry that she smelled so bad but I was delighted she chose the front door of Sax to call home.
Hmm, still here?
This does work.
Maybe I'll come back tomorrow and see if you read that too.

Well, welcome to the blogosphere! I hope your stay here is vibrant and hilarious, with as much vim & vigor as you just exuded in this post.
I would've loved to stalk Tina Fey with you. I've heard tales of Amy Poehler breaking down in nervous puddles from time to time, but then, I don't trust everything Homeless Lady Who Wears Hats & Looks Too Well-Kept To Be Homeless says to me. The writers are out there for great reason, though -- they deserve internet & DVD residuals. They are, after all, the backbone of everything worth watching on TV. That's right, I just took a stand that "talent," reality & game shows are not the reason my couch faces my TV.
