Apt. Search break

I guess nobody wants a "Customers Should Too" t-shirt. Suit yourself, but you're going to regret it when you have to spend 22 bucks to get the faux-faded version at Urban Outfitters. Hey so it looks like the pilot I worked on is not getting picked up. Enormous bummer. Though I haven't heard the official word I think it's a bad omen when a network produces four pilots and an article comes out quoting the network president talking about how three of those pilots are going to series and there is no mention of the show to which all of your hopes and dreams were pinned.

Alas, they say everything happens for a reason, so I guess the powers that be seem to think that my best chance for finding a great apartment for next year is to have my days open, freeing me to pounce on some steal of a deal the second it hits the market. Either that or they think it's amusing to see me jobless and increasingly jaded.

Last night on American Idol Scott Savol, the pride of Shaker Heights, was voted out of the competition. Right after hearing the tough news, Scott viewed a highlight reel of his journey from the initial audition to his spot in the final five. Scott was visibly moved and seemed to be biting his lip to fight back tears. Then as soon as the montage ended, host Ryan Seacrest hands him a mic and says "ladies and gentleman Scott Savol, one more time for Scotty the Body!" (He's heavyset) All of a sudden music comes on and Scott is supposed to perform his rendition of 'On Broadway.' Fuck that shit. If I were Scott I'd be bellowing out "fuck you America!" Scott, however, went out with class as he feigned excitement at his final chance to sing in the national spotlight. To add insult to injury the show must have been running long and so it cut out about 1/5 of the way into Scott's swan song. I cannot believe that the producers of American Idol have the audacity to ask the contestant whose dreams just got crushed seconds ago, to immediately suck it up, put on a happy face and sing their favorite number one last time. That's like having a presidential candidate who just lost give the acceptance speech he would have given if elected moments after discovering his candidacy has failed. Or asking the second runner up for Miss America to practice that bizarre wave to the crowd with a burger king crown on her head. Okay, so it's not a perfect analogy but nonetheless, it's heartless to treat a man the way they treated poor, devastated Scott.

The reason American Idol got cut short was because Fox had to air an episode of the dumbest sitcom ever created. The show is called Stacked. The sole, and I mean absolute only premise of the show is that Pamela Anderson is really hot. Nothing else. What an inventive basis for a show. She works in a bookstore. Christopher Lloyd is a regular customer. He should be ashamed of his involvement. You wouldn't typically think of Baywatch as being the perch from which somebody falls from grace (typically it's their landing spot) but this is definitely a far cry from the comparatively sophisticated writing on Baywatch. Clearly my Wednesday night was one for the ages.

Prior to rounds, what did the doctor call the rare case of tuberculosis he found present in the NBC network executive?

Must See TB
