Her new one, Folkloriko, is a find, and not just for card-carrying jazz snobs like Yours Truly.

Cheers.

I'd hate to see them correct these little flubs when re-mastering to DVD, because I grew up with them. I need to f...

...Anyone casually aquainted with me probably knows that I'm the biggest Marshall Crenshaw drooler in the whole damn universe, but... you should all trust me and buy his What's In The Bag CD anyway, because in my utterly unbiased opinion, it's a lovely thing. At the total other end of the spectrum, ...

I dressed up as the pointy-headed boss one year for Halloween. An alarming number of people thought I was Pat of "It's Pat !" fame. Which really pissed me off because while I find Julia Sweeney funny away from that horrid nullifier of humor: SNL, I always found "It's Pat" about as funny as stomach f...

Persepolis is Marjane Satrapi's account of her girlhood in 1970s revolutionary Iran. Well done and very moving. Despite the ubiquitous Maus comparisons, she has her own style, and it draws you in instantly. Also, this is the first new comic I've read off line in sometime, so I really appreciated ho...

... and 99.9% of the world's women aren't Meg Ryan. That still leaves ( roughly ) 6,302,486 women in the world who ARE Meg Ryan, so the odds aren't terrible. Frankly, I'd rather be Janeane Garofalo. Getting in the last snappy comeback is much more important than getting Tom Hanks, if you ask me. YM...

Nope. They were always going to kiss. I saw it coming. :D The moral of today's panel: Act like a stuck up, imature jerk-off, and you'll get laid. That's never worked for me. :( That's because you're not Tom Hanks or Billy Crystal and 99.9% of the world's women aren't Meg Ryan. Someday, you will app...

Why bother. Don't we already have the Fox Channel for that ?

Now I remember why I never go to comic book shops or conventions any more !! :oops: (Stop it, Guys !! I'm a Delicate Flower [tm]. Just like my idol, Judy Tenuta.) Well, there's this and the fact that I sunk all my money into Real Estate and my cat's impending teeth-cleaning. If you wanna' get techn...

I can't shake the suspicion that it's all a metaphor for the Governor's race. No, I don't know why. Too much caffeine, perhaps ?...

Oh, thanks a lot, Scott. Now I'll have that damn Kids In The Hall sketch running through my head for the whole freaking day. Y'know, the one that's filmed like an Obsession ad where the poor guy runs all over the bank and all over town, crying, "My Pen !! My PENNN !!!" Whenever a customer at work as...

Stop raining on my used car lot, Guest. FWIW, when the show went off the air, even one of the voice-actors jokingly referred to the mice as "long-time companions." If I can't engage in pointless speculations about obscure corners of pop culture that demonstrate beyond a doubt just how badly my adole...
