I have been meaning to begin doing random posts about whatever is on my mind for some time. I am calling this feature, Observations, unless/until I come up with a better name. Think of it as the logical successor to Larry King’s USA Today column, only more um, logical.
John O’Hurley (aka Mr. Peterman) was named as the new host of Family Feud. I don’t really care, I don’t watch a lot of TV and certainly not game shows, but I know enough about that show to know the logical choice was Mojo Nixon. Just imagine him yelling, “let’s play the Feud!” and it all makes sense.
No show better captured the zeitgeist of the Reagan era better than Duck Tales. The world’s greatest plutocrat swims around in a vault of money — that’s rich.
I still cannot believe that nobody says rooting for the Yankees is like rooting for Microsoft.
I wonder how long until I am the only American under age 40 without an iPod. Six months? Two months?
In a related note, I wonder if 40 15 years from now I will be one of the few of my peers without a hearing aid.
I have had so many questions answered on Post and USA Today chats that it is no longer a big deal or even blog worthy. The exception is Tom Sietsema, The Post’s food critic. I am about 0 for 12 on his chats. I think I still need to get Gene Weingarten to answer one too, but I have not tried much with him.
The weather sure is promising for the foreseeable future, I wonder if the Ombudsman has snuck into the area again.
