Steven and I had a recent restaurant experience that really bugged me. Actually, it wasn’t all that recent – it was last spring – but it still bugs me.
Here are a few of the spots I wrote for the launch of Conan’s new show on TBS. They’re part of the “Missing You” campaign, by Stun Creative. Stun had the concept – people missing Conan, with the John Waite song – and asked me to come up with several scenarios. What do you think?
I’m probably the last person to discover this DIY movie website, but I just came across it today and had to try it. Made this movie in 10 minutes, but I hope it will make an impact on millions of lives. My next movie will have better camera moves. UPDATE: Just changed the title of…
Today is my dad’s 78th birthday. Buying presents for him is always hard. Not because he’s “the man who has everything,” but because he’s “the man who wants nothing normal.”

Oh, man. Can you believe this got on Ellen? She sounds like me (bad enough) doing karaoke while being waterboarded. For those of you not familiar with Real Housewives of Atlanta, Kim Zolziak is the one with the wig business and the married boyfriend she calls “Big Poppa.” Big Poppa, if you couldn’t guess from…
Do they still make Very Special Episodes and After School Specials? I hope so. They were the cornerstone of my education in Things Not To Do, like drugs, drinking, drinking and driving, bingeing and puking, killing yourself, and getting molested by the nice man who owns the bicycle shop. (Poor Dudley.*) Those TV shows served…
