Random Junk

Just a couple of quick hits for you this time around. Random thoughts on stuff I've been too busy to comment or expand upon in the last few days. Well I have other things going on you know, porn doesn't just search for itself! (But wouldn't it be awesome if it could?)

We lost Apple founder Steve Jobs this week. Really nothing else I can say about this that hasn't already been said by the millions of people whose lives and careers were made better by his genius. You'll be missed, dude.

Amanda Knox is back home after her four year ordeal in an Italian prison. That's a good thing. But just so it's not a total loss to the Italian penal system, let's send them Casey Anthony to take her place. It's nice to dream.


First casualty of the fall TV season is NBC's The Playboy Club. No surprise there, it sucked bunny ass. So to the eighteen people who actually tuned in to watch Eddie Cibrian do his impression of Don Draper, sorry. Jon Hamm's still the man and you'll just have to await his 2012 return like the rest of us.

Speaking of Mad Men, one of the best comic books on the market right now
(IMHO) is Scalped by DC/Vertigo Comics. Did I lose you there? Mad Men is produced by AMC, which also produces The Walking Dead, which is based on a comic book, so there's your bloody segue. Now try to keep up. Anyway, written by Jason Aaron, Scalped tells the story of a casino owning tribe of Native Americans in South Dakota and it would make a terrific television series. There have been talks, so I'm hoping that will happen soon. It'd be a lot like The Sopranos…except in South Dakota instead of New Jersey. Not really sure where the difference in that lies.

And lastly, the New England Patriots f##king rule! That's not really new news, just a statement of fact I felt like making.

We'll talk again soon. Well not actually talk, more like I'll type and you'll read. That's pretty much the nature of the relationship here. Know your role dammit.
