So, how's my day been?

Feeling like crap (but temp is back down to around 97, and no chills, so I'm damned better than Wednesday), I caught up on work, then realized that the presentation run-through for our big presentation next Thursday was in another building. Trecked through the cold, and we ran forty minutes longer than expected, and found all sorts of nifty technical issues.

Haven't had a chance to breathe, let alone sit and read.

Need coffee.

Coming next year to Fox:

Fucking with the Stars.

In the grand tradition of Dancing With The Stars and Skating with Celebrities, Fox is taking seven also-rans, pairing them up with porn stars, and seeing if they have what it takes to film a hardcore XXX video!

Celebrities scheduled include:

Alleged Comedienne Kathy Griffen.
Former Future Hall of Famer Mark McGuire.
Lip-synching, chest-bumping sensation Fabrice Morvan.
Ex-MTV VJ (from when they had videos) "Downtown" Julie Brown.
One of of the most enduring voices in pop music, Taylor Dayne.
The man who put the Vice in Miami, Philip Michael Thomas.
And, the man who killed Apollo Creed, Dolph Lundgren.

Each round will ramp up the challenges, as the contestants move from basic tasks like working with a fluffer and remembering to pull out/have your partner pull out for the money shot to more perverted and risque fare. Can Kathy Griffen perform three minutes of analingus on special Guest Hairy Ass Robin Williams? Will Mark McGuire learn to play catcher? Will Dolph have an unfair advantage in any events involving gerbils? Watch and find out!

Featuring special surprise guests (who will the star of the final round's Necrophilia Challenge be? Could she share a name with a certain Georgia city?), along with host Ron Jeremy and judges Al Goldstein, Christie Hefner, and Jimmy Swaggart.

Coming next September to Fox, where "taste" is something you have to wash out of your mouth every day.

Grrr.

I'm sorry. I adore Christopher Moore, but this pisses me off. I fully fucking intend to sit at Waldenbooks this weekend and read the 32 new pages without buying the new edition. I don't like it when musicians pull this shit, I'm annoyed by the insta-double-dip trend in DVDs, and this is just insulting.

That said, it won't stop me from buying this next April (or, better yet, hoping that someone buys it for me, seeing as it comes out seven days before my birthday).
