The Rest of What's Around: February 2007
http://countfusilli.blogspot.com/2007_02_01_archive.html
The Rest of What's Around. Wednesday, February 28, 2007. Frank Bruni Is a Little Girl. In the Food and Dining section of today's NYTimes, Frank Bruni reviews Robert, the steak house in the Penthouse Executive Club. The review. Cleverly titled 'Where Only the Salads Are Properly Dressed,' which doesn't really make sense because the girls in question actually are properly dressed, this being a strip club and all) is exceptional, if only because it's fun to watch Frank Bruni pretend to be a heterosexual.

The Rest of What's Around. Sunday, April 30, 2006. Hi, My Name is Virginia Heffernan.durr.durr. Wow, Virginia Heffernan, a writer for the NY Times' entertainment section is so smart! She, like, gets Ricky Gervais and most Americans apparently don't! Wow, also she dares you not to find Tristam Shandy hilarious. She's so cultured! Wow, I wish I understood why Karl Pilkington (who is not a "deadpan actor" you stupid woman) was so funny! I'm so glad she wrote about the Ricky Gervais Podcasts on APRIL 24TH!

Circling the Drain: March 2007
http://robturbo.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html
Because sometimes concision and coherence just don't get the job done. Friday, March 23, 2007. Dredging The Cesspool of Culture: The Reviews - 300 (in 300). The movie is called. Like the CGI-chiseled bodies that everyone, including the children, possesses in the film, there’s no fat in. It functions like its own advertising campaign, the filmmakers constantly reminding us in case we walked in late that we’re watching 300, and it is badass. Every line of dialogue sounds like it could be in the trailer, an...

Because sometimes concision and coherence just don't get the job done. Thursday, January 17, 2008. You Mean, New York Gets Destroyed By A Monster? How Do They Come Up With This Stuff? Yeah, I saw it. And you'll see it too. To write about Cloverfield. Like anything the movie, the aforementioned writing, the impact of either matters is to ignore the skyscraper-sized alien-prune phallus in the room. The film is as impervious to criticism as it is to logic; it’s something like Godzilla. For viral video, The.

Because sometimes concision and coherence just don't get the job done. Thursday, December 27, 2007. Nearly Drowning in the Mystic: Van Morrison Live in Providence (from the Weekly Dig). When you’re going to see Van Morrison, there’s always the question of what Van Morrison is going to show up. (But not when the tickets specify 7 pm sharp! Like Dylan, or Coltrane or any of the greats, Morrison always searches for a new entry point into his songs, a new rhythm to the vocal, something that interests him eno...

Because sometimes concision and coherence just don't get the job done. Saturday, April 21, 2007. The Turbo Tapes - George Carlin Part 2. RT: When you were working on [ Life Is Worth Losing. Did you have a sense of the tone immediately? Did it have one of those defining bits? Moment, you look and think, Oh, wait a minute! This should be the closing. This belongs at the end. Or something like that. It’s a combination of inventing and discovering. RT: Do you rank your albums and specials? I’m very fond of t...

Because sometimes concision and coherence just don't get the job done. Friday, February 23, 2007. Important Television: BU Tonight Takes on Global Warming. On this week’s Kristian’s Korner: Global warming. I’ll be honest with you friends, acquaintances, lovers. Christian winks at the camera. Global warming is an issue that hits really close to home for me. When I was eight years old, my mother was killed by a scientist. A mad scientist. A very angry mad scientist. Because there were no thermometers back ...
