Yes, I'm Still Alive - MSNBC Black Hole Edition


Seriously, if I don't stop watching MSNBC all the time soon my brain might be irreparable. Contessa, Tamron, Joe and Mika, and especially David, Chris and Chuck, I think you're all just swell, but really... I need my life back.

And in just one short week I'll have it, but will I have it all?

Oh, if only Obama winning meant just that. It's a start, though, I hope. In eight days I could own the President's fork. It's just too crazy to contemplate.

In the meantime, I am totally heartbroken over Joaquin Phoenix retiring.

Also, I hope the German police have caught the menace that is the speeding Muppet.

And then there's the above pictured tattoo that Kat Von D did of Mick Mars on her boyfriend Nikki Sixx's leg. I read that Motley Crue biography and as disturbing as it was, you couldn't help but love Mick. I adore him like I adore Kirk Hammett. I wonder how Kirk would feel about that.

Alec Baldwin just called Sarah Palin "Bible Spice" on Late Night with David Letterman. I hope I'm the first person on Earth to report that.

  1. I Tivo Morning Joe. It's maybe my favorite thing ever. I don't know how to explain it. My day just isn't right without it.

    So there's that. And I miss Tim. I read that David Gregory is the most likely heir to the MTP throne and they also said that Tim didn't like David because they went out to dinner one time and David berated the waitress and Tim lectured him sternly and never cared much for him after that. And though David is very tall and sometimes gives me little starbusts and I sit up a little straighter on the couch... that little anecdote makes me kinda hate him and makes me sad for the venerable institution that is Meet the Press. Tim hand picked Chuck Todd to come on MSNBC as a numbers guy, but I think he's got game we haven't seen. Chuckie T for MTP!! I mean it.

    That said, I'm with Wyatt Cenac - "Can we just f**king vote already?!"

    Glad you're still alive. I share the sickness.

  2. Mick Mars does seem to have been a more stable presence in that band than anybody...all that despite riding the white horse! And I will be glad when the election is over, particularly our local elections. I am quite tired of the Lunsford/McConnell commercials featuring the wacky comical Stagecoach chase music...

  3. Nice to see (read) you! I was telling someone yesterday that I wanted to get in time machine and fast forward to Tuesday (to make sure I could vote). I'd totally shave those six days off my life if it meant I could quit having election anxiety.

    Hope you're well, Ms. P! You still need to shop with me one day...

  4. ha! I'm watching my DVR'ed Morning Joe right now, but I'm watching with sadness over the David Gregory story. What a bummer. You think he'll get MTP over Andrea Mitchell (although poor Andrea - that might be a tough one being married to Greenspan and all).

    Maisy - yes on the shopping.

    OM - do you think Lunsford stands a chance? Should he?

  5. Ugh. How do you watch Morning Joe? He is the only MSNBCer that I cannot tolerate. Although, they once made him cover a hurricane and he fell down. It was kind of fabulous.

    If Gregory gets MTP over my TV boyfriend Chuck Todd I am going to be eternally depressed. What will poor Chucky do when the election is over and he has no more fun maps to play with? Man needs a job.
