I saw “Revenge of the Sith” at 12:01 AM (though it didn’t actually start until 12:10 AM) and it was awesome. Yes, there was some wooden dialogue but for the most part, it rocked. Seriously, I’m not just saying this and I’m not in denial like I was for Episodes I and II. If anything, […]
This just in: Fox gives low-rated ‘Development’ a late reprieve. “Arrested Development” will definitely be back next season as Fox has officially renewed the show for one more season. “Arrested Development” is one of broadcast’s most critically beloved comedies, but the ratings haven’t been there. This season the Emmy winner averaged just a 2.8 share […]
I read in today’s NY Times a great story by Thomas W. Gross M.D. about how sometimes the best prescription a doctor can offer is simply lending his ear. I have provided the full text after the jump. How Much for an Hour of Schmoozing, Doc? By THOMAS W. GROSS, M.D. May 17, 2005 In […]
Trip Down Mass Marketing, Media Tie-In Lane So, I’m listening to Virgin Radio on-line this morning, and “Star Wars” Episode III has already debuted in London (5/16/05), and there is supposed to be an interview with C-3PO at some point today (evening London time).

Bestill my fanboy heart. The reviews are coming in and so far, so good. I’ve gotten excited before, actually twice before, only to end up in denial for several months before admitting to severe disappointment so I’m trying not to get too worked up until I see the damn thing at 12:01 AM, Thursday May […]
Wine lovers may buy directly from out-of-state vineyards, the Supreme Court ruled today. Turley Mailing list – here I come!
If you google me (Jeff Lipson) your result number one result is this journal entry that I logged while I was at Woodstock ’94. Even better than text, if you click on the picture, you hear my 17 year old voice leaving an audio entry – sweet! My friend George logged an entry as well. […]
My friend Eric called me today to say, “Dude, Lipso Nava is in the Post!” Turns out, his new team, the Camden Riversharks, played the Long Island Ducks last night. The Ducks now have John Rocker on their team so they are getting tons of media attention, especially since he recently said: “I’ve taken a […]
When I have rough days, the idea of dropping out of society, riding the rails cross country, eating can after can of beans, taking a swig of hooch from a paper bag, you know, real hobo type stuff, is sort of intriguing. In case you didn’t know, the classic American hobo of early this century […]
Fulop wins! Fulop wins! In Jersey City’s Ward E yesterday, my good friend Steven Fulop successfully raged against the Hudson County Democratic Organization machine and won the Ward E Councilman position. It’s about time that something good happened in the world of politics, especially NJ politics (which is about 5x more dirty than the rest […]
