Love It

Phyllis Siegel and Connie Kopelov embrace after getting married. They were the first gay couple to marry at Manhattan's City Clerk's Office.

Amy Winehouse

A brilliant marriage of classic soul, R&B, and jazz with modern pop music. Think what you will of Amy Winehouse as a person, but this girl was talented. From Amy's songwriting abilities, Mark Ronson's amazing producing skills, and Amy's distinct contralto vocals, Back to Black was a fantastic album. What a tragedy that Amy Winehouse's demons (seemingly) got the best of her. She was only 27.

Let Me Count the Ways

In a recent interview with Entourage creator Doug Ellin, Tina Fey was brought up:

Did you read Tina Fey's anecdote in her book Bossypants, about pumping breast milk to episodes of Entourage?

Tina had a great line to me and [Entourage producer] Rob Weiss at the Emmys four years ago. We were like, "You're just gonna beat us every year, huh?" And she looked at us deadpan and said, "Yeah, but I'm sure you guys get more pussy than I do."

It's All in the PR

Medical Marijuana Show Premieres on Discovery Channel This Fall

"Weed Wars" profiles the challenges of running a medicinal cannabis dispensary in California.

I think one of the reasons why medical marijuana dispensaries have such a hard time getting any sort of legitimacy or credit is because it seems like they're all run by people that look like this...

(Though it does sound like an interesting show.)

Advice to Little Girls

Vladimir Radunsky has wonderfully illustrated Mark Twain's 1865 children's story "Advice to Little Girls". I love it!

I'm Crossing You In Style Some Day

Ever since living here, I have been watching more "classics" movies thanks to the AFI theatre playing retrospectives. There's tons of old(er) movies I've been meaning to see for a while, but never get around to it. Having the opportunity to see some of these classics projected on the big screen gives me that extra motivation to finally see them. It's a great way to experience these movies for the first time.

Last night was my first time seeing Breakfast at Tiffany's. Audrey Hepburn was so damn adorable and charming (and oh how I loved her style). Mickey Rooney's Asian "impression" was way worse than I thought it was going to be (which is saying a lot) -- thank god he didn't really have a large role in the film. And Cat nearly stole the show for me. Oh, and Moon River! (Moon River always makes me think of Big). And Jets to Brazil! My favorite part of the movie is when Holly and Paul (or "Fred") go around the city and do things they've never done before.

I seriously love that Cat is in between them
