Things that Robert is thinking about that keep him from accomplishing anything.

 
Growin' Up
A sad moment at my house last night. Sad in the kind of way when you're looking forward to going to the pool on a hot day and when you drive by it's been closed by the Board of Health kind of sad. You'll get over it, but it's disappointing kind of sad.

I'm reading Al Franken's books and thinking about how it's more earnest than funny and Jimmy Kimmel is just about over (after vaguely listening to him, Conan, and Dave) and I see Extra. They're talking about John Ritter and Johnny Cash's deaths. That's not the sad part.

The sad part is who was announcing. None other than Brian Unger, former Letterman writer, Daily Show correspondent (in the early Kilborne days), and most recently on Oxygen with the great show O2Be, a parody of Regis and Kelly starring him and Daily Show creator Lizz Winstead. I suppose there is truth in the old adage, "Brotha's gotta get paid." Let us all bow our heads in silence.

Thank you.
