This Week's Cultural Fix

Brian Williams on SNL - hysterical. Barack Obama - not so much. Dude, you might have a better shot if you showed us a personality more exciting than my left shoe. Here's what you do - take Al Gore out for a beer and ask him which rehab program helped him find a personality after the 2000 election. You still might not win the nomination, but you'll have a head start on an Oscar, an Emmy and a Nobel Peace Prize.

Britney Spears - would be nice if we actually heard her sing on her new album. Wait, what am I saying?! Never mind, Britney, just keep synthesizing your voice to the nth degree and layering background vocals to drown you out - that's why we love you. That and your awesome parenting skills.

Bee Movie - haven't actually seen it yet, but because it's animated, there's no way I'll avoid it for long. Santa, here's what I want for Christmas - the opportunity to see a movie at the movie theater that actually has real people on the screen.

Oh, and I'd also like my tush from five years ago, a haircut and sleep. Santa's got a plastic surgeon on staff now, right?

I saw a photograph of one of Britney's kids yesterday; he's about two years old and already has yellow teeth. It broke my heart.

Speaking of Al Gore, he is in one of my all-time favorite SNL sketches: http://politicalhumor.about.com/od/algore/v/algoresnl.htm
