  1. Nancy Wilson from Heart was in Fast Times at Ridgemont High. She was the girl in the corvette laughing at Hamilton for wearing the stupid pirate hat. She was/is married to Fast Times writer Cameron Crowe???

  2. Saw Ald. Cahnman at Blues and BBQ. He appeared to be fake-enjoying a manly beer.

    What do you think of Michael and Michael? I find it hilarious.

  3. Nancy Wilson is correct and she is married to that Crowe fellow. I thought I might throw people off by referring to Fast Times as a JJL movie instead of a Sean Penn movie, but Monkey Boys don’t fool so easily.

    I’m glad that shame hasn’t interfered with Cahnman’s social pursuits. I bet his beer was tinged with lime.

    MMHI is great. No comedic actor does passive aggressive as well as Michael Ian Black.

  4. Yes, and I’m happy for MIB, because he was starting to go the way of the totally overexposed/underfunny Mo Rocca for me by appearing on one too many VH1 decade shows with straight-faced ironic comments. MMHI is a much better venue for him.

  5. How did MIB not get picked as the host of the Late Late Show over Craig Ferguson?

  7. Monkey Boys? Have you been catching BB on cable recently? No matter where you go, there you are.

    Cheers on the Torpedo. I hope it doesn’t offend your refined tastes. Soon you will become a man.
