Trading a Stethoscope for a Holster

Rather than having Cliff play a doctor on the Cosby show they should have made him a constable. Then whenever trouble reared its ugly head in Cosbyville somebody would place an urgent call asking for Constable Huxtable. Can you imagine how cute it would have been when Raven Simone answered one of those calls and asked "who's Consa-bull Hux-a bull?" back when she was a cute tv star not a tragic way too old for Nickelodeon one who you wouldn't even be excited about running into at a bar.

If people do something that's clever or sly and you say "smooth move" in a sincere tone it tends to throw them a bit.

I saw a review for Dave Gorman's one-man show called 'Googlewhack!' that read: In A Word, 'Googlewhack!' Wins! I think that's lazy journalism to review shows with one word. I bet the one-man show reviewer was surprised when his editor handed him a ticket to the show and said I want one word on it on my desk first thing tomorrow morning-though technically it's 5 words. I wonder if that got him in trouble over there at the Post? I guess he could have been a girl. I shouldn't assume. By the by (whatever that means) I went to Googlewhack! last night and though it wasn't competing for anything as far as I could tell and therefore didn't technically "win" it was supremely clever and entertaining. I definitely recommend it. Googlewhack! actually did "win" when compared to the show 'Democracy' that I took in this afternoon. (By “took in” I mean saw rather than adopted) I'd say I couldn't fully appreciate 'Democracy' on account of fatigue and a mild hangover but I think that would ignore the main obstacle to my appreciation: it sucking. That's too harsh. Allow me to rephrase: It was a little slow, dense and late 60's German politics-centric for my taste.

Enjoy the remainder of your weekend. (Does remainder cast an ominous tone on that sentence at all? That wasn't my intention, but consider yourselves forewarned nonetheless.)
