NPH + SNL = GOOD
I saw two clips from Saturday Night Live hosted by Neil Patrick Harris (Jan. 10, 2009). Can anyone who saw the show tell me if it was funny? Thanks.

Storytelling with Ira Glass
This may be really inspiring to some of you. It's about the art and difficulty of telling stories (esp. on radio and TV), and doing it from the heart. In four parts, via YouTube, here.

Or is this simply cross-promotional corporate advertising on the web?

Soleil Moon Frye = Lunar Eclipse
Tonight there will be a total lunar eclipse. Hope for clear skies!

The moon will be completely "hidden" around 10pm EST / 7pm PST. Partial shadows of the Earth will be noticeable about ninety minutes on either side of the peak time. Check it out outside your window.

Super Duper
I do not want to wager about next week's Super Tuesday outcome (anything is possible), but I can predict the Superbowl results.

The Giants will win.
And I will eat one pig-in-a-blanket* for each point scored.
