Work is an interesting beast. A few months ago I was amazingly busy. I was in the office at 9:00 and out at 11:00pm every day, working weekends, and generally running around like a chicken with my head cut off. I hated it. I woke up every morning just wanting to crawl under my bed and hide. I sat at my desk just wanting to crawl up under my desk and hide. And I went home exhausted with

Alias To Premiere on Wednesday, January 5 at 9pm. ABC has annouced that as expected, Alias will be moved from it's Sunday night time slot (which has been been commandeered by Desperate Housewives) to Wednesdays at 9pm. Finally, after three years, Alias finally gets a worthy lead-in. No more "10-8"/"Extreme Makeover" bullshit. It will be a JJ Wednesday with "Lost" at 8pm and "Alias" at 9pm.

Can We Really All Get Along? I agree with this article 100%. Instead of writing off middle America as a bunch of ignorant rednecks, Democrats would serve themselves well to figure out why the Red States went red. If they would stop to actually ask (instead of just assume that it's because the Reds are ignorant, homophobic, bible-toters) they might actually learn what these Americans value.

I've just finished the second season of "The Office" and I must say that it's giving Sports Night a run for it's money. Sports Night has the better writing, no doubt. But The Office is funnier and well, it has Ricky Gervais. And Martin Freeman, who you may know from Love Actually as the male porno stand-in. Anyway, you need to watch this show. Your life is incomplete if you die having not

MSNBC - Ex-Ore. governor admits affair with 14-year-old girl It is beyond my realm of comprehension how a 35 year-old man can (1) be sexually attracted by a 14 year-old girl, (2) have the gall to put himself in a situation where he may act on it, and (3) actually do it. Somewhere along that road you have to think a little alarm goes off and he sayd "Nah, I shouldn't."

MSNBC - Good Medicine The success of shows like According to Jim, Average Joe, Extreme Makeover, and the Bachelor, and the failure of shows like Arrested Development, Wonderfalls, and Sports Night (a moment of silence please) just go to show that you can never count on the American public's taste.

Mean Girls dissects the high-school cafeteria. I went to see Mean Girls on opening night, expecting a few laughs here and there, but mainly to support my girl, Tina Fey. But imagine my shock and awe when I soon realized, "this ain't your little sister's teen comedy." It's smart, snappy, witty, and keeps you guessing. Fey's jokes come flying at you and the punchlines are not what you'd expect.

Welcome back, Alias! It feels like its been so long since I've seen you? What? You say you've been around? I don't believe you. First let me say that even the worst Alias episode is still better than 95% of what's on TV. But my show has taken a bit of nose dive as of late, and I have been loyally tuning each week to see if they can snap out of it and pull it out. Well finally. My loyalty

Because "whence" (the awkward and outcast cousin of the golden child "whom") really needs to make a comeback. And I resolve to lead the charge.

In honor of O.A.R. (who rocked the Warfield last night) and the beautiful weather we're enjoying the Bay Area. "Wouldn't it be the best damn day if we all took time to breathe? Just one stolen paragraph in the book's written history. Don't you sometimes wonder why people are afraid to smile?

I'm going through an 80's phase. Why? Well you can blame VH1's "I Love the 80's" series for one. I mean, if Mo Rocca, Michael Ian Black, Donal Logue, and the poor man's Tina Fey, Rachel Harris are validating all the stuff I used to love but am now ashamed to admit (NKOTB anyone? No? Just me? Ok.), then I feel like I have carte blanche license to proclaim my love once and for all. Reason

Don't get me wrong. It was a marked improvement from the craptastic previous episode. But when did Alias become the Lauren Reed show? I swear, they think they can make her interesting by making her evil, throwing a recycled "Sydney" wig on her, and have her make out with anything that moves. This is just lazy writing and I forgive it only because its midseason and the payoff (Vaughn finding
