Three Things that are not Sheets
I got caught up watching this show "Three Sheets" on Mojo last night. It's basically a guy going around the world getting drunk, while a high-definition camera crew chronicles the entire thing. And it's strangely watchable. Because for whatever reason, the show is right - you can learn a lot about the people of far-off and exotic places by what they drink and how they drink it.
Went to a couple of parties this weekend. Three topics were the most talked about.
TOPIC THE FIRST - the "wrap" party. Every year my managers throw a great holiday "wrap" party, but word on the street is that it's been cancelled. They're taking the money for the party and donating it to the WGA Strike Fund, so it's going to a good cause. But this was one of the best parties of the year. Guess it's just another reason to be annoyed at the strike.
TOPIC THE SECOND - the strike. Where people are picketing, what people have seen, what celebrities have walked the line, what they've heard about the negotiations. Lots of juicy rumors, but the only real fact is that the studios walked away from the negotiating table last week. Doesn't look like anything will happen until at least January.
TOPIC THE THIRD - Sharpay getting a nose job. ERRRRRR, I mean, uh, surgery for a deviated septum. Don't ask me why this kept coming up. Try as we might, we just can't get away from the HSM. It's a worldwide phenomenon that threatens to steamroll everything in sight, but there's no use fighting it. We can only hope that when HSM comes to kill us all in our sleep, it kills us quickly and without any up-tempo singing and dancing.
Man, I need a drink. And maybe a bagel.
