This is the column I ran today in response to Roman Polanski’s arrest. My Co-worker Dan did not feel the same way. Here is my article, and his response.

Before you jump to conclusions, Dan’s a smart guy, and probably my best writer. But feel free to (respectfully) agree or disagree with his position if you’d like.

This will relate to something eventually, of that I am sure.

If I was halfway decent at photoshop and didn’t have a midterm tomorrow I’d try to photoshop “When Harry Met Sally,” now that we’re on the “Mad Men in an alternate universe” theme.

I just got an email from a guy commending me on my “Song of the South” article, saying he grew up with the song. He’s 68 years old. And his email address features the phrase “kitandkaboodle.” This is the greatest thing to ever happen to me.

4 Things to like about this article I wrote:

1. I wrote it in a an emergency content pinch in about 45 minutes, so you know it’s good.

2. It’s about Swine Flu (LOLZ TOPICAL!!1!)

3. It’s in convenient list form, which I know all you Internet people love.

4. The reasons I gave are also in list form, and you probably read them, proving my point.

My first good column of the year. I wrote my first one on deadline, and I didn’t really like the way it turned out, so I didn’t bother posting it. This one, however, turned out ok.

No surprise about number 1… hint: R-o-o-o-o-cky

Upon further review, Superbad is I am still horribly unfunny and painfully terrible. I want that two now four two hours inches of my life dick back.

So… cool beans?

Aldous Snow: I’ve lost a shoe… have you seen it anywhere? Excuse me, missus, I’ve lost a shoe… like this one. It’s like this one’s fellow… it’s sort of the exact opposite in fact of that - not an evil version but just, you know, a shoe like this… but for the other foot. Otherwise I’d have two right…

When Movieoftheday features great movies, it’s hard to not reblog. Be ready for Tuesday, it’s American Psycho day.
