Been Reading a Lot of Wikipedia Lately
Although a commanding and powerful speaker, Harding was notorious for his verbal gaffes, such as his comment “I would like the government to do all it can to mitigate, then, in understanding, in mutuality of interest, in concern for the common good, our tasks will be solved.” His errors were compounded by his insistence on writing his own speeches.

i saw a picture of jamie foxx with this big tribal tattoo all over his shoulder areas/back.  wanted to know if it was recent—and if it really is that easy for hollywood make-up to make it a non-issue. “The search jamie foxx shirtless may return explicit adult content and has been filtered by your Bing SafeSearch settings.”

Quentin Tarantino recently made a list of his favorite movies since 1992, the year he started directing. I like using this year as a cut-off, for me it's around the time I first started being really into movies and knowing when they were coming out and stuff.
Only losers don't rank things so here's my list, in order, of my
Favorite Movies Since 1992:
The Departed
Clueless
Groundhog Day
LA Confidential
Showgirls
Starship Troopers
The Incredibles
Men in Black
Boogie Nights

While doing DVD commentary, it becomes extremely difficult for me [not] to blurt out crazy things like “The Holocaust never happened!” That was gonna just be an ordinary retweet (i can’t believe i just wrote that sentence) but with the little ’RT’ note and the helpful “[not]” it became too long for twitter itself.  (Though twittering is in many ways...

“I have this weird thing where I feel exhilarated when I cast things off in my life. Let things go. Even things that are important to me. Sometimes I know I’m making the wrong decision, but I do it anyway. Like, I just lost this watch that really meant a lot to me. I bought it after ‘Bottle Rocket’. The first nice thing I ever bought for myself and I lost it. Yet I have...

size matters
from Rainn Wilson’s twitter: “SIZE MATTERS! Make those teeny tiny wimpy URLs really get her attention at EnormousURL.com” i forgot if i told you guys, my blog readers, about my own new twitter account: it’s @golbe69 and it’s perfect for you if you like my blog but think it gets a little long-winded sometimes.

Full Metal Jacket Anecdote from Wikipedia
Former U.S. Marine Drill Instructor R. Lee Ermey was originally hired as a technical adviser and asked Kubrick if he could audition for the role of Hartman. However the Kubrick [sic], having seen his portrayal as Drill Instructor SSgt Loyce in The Boys in Company C, told him that he wasn’t vicious enough to play the character.[2] In response, Ermey made a videotape of himself improvising...

From NBC Universal Careers' How to Be a TV Writer...
Story — Robert McKee Regan Books c. 1997 For beginning writers, this book is a must-have. Considered by most writers as their ‘bible,’ McKee breaks down the many components of a story into digestible parts. While unraveling the fundamentals of composition, he elevates writing from an intellectual exercise to an art form.

Playboy Update
In the world’s fastest example of a blog gag order, the Playboy people have asked me to stop blogging about what may or may not have occured during my internship at Playboy. So for now, it will suffice to say that I needed the bathing suit, I can’t tell you what I did in it, but it’s going to make for some excellent reality television.
