TOPIC: WHERE IS EVERYONE?!
Posted  Tuesday, September 19, 2006 at 4:28 PM
Post 1 of 47
It's like we all now have a 4 month gap to fill. Where has everyone been? What's going on? Who hates who? Who feels betrayed by Ashlee Simpson's new face?

The missing time, it's a mystery. Like "Lost."

I'm in New York City, interning for "The Late Show with David Letterman." So I'm missing everyone, especially the Features. If anyone ventures up this way, please let me know.

What's going on?!!

I had an X3 one, so...that was very out of date.

I bought season 2 of "Lost" a couple days early at some locally owned DVD store in Brooklyn. They also had season 2 of "The Office" a good two weeks before it was released. I'm curious about the origin......

Congrats on the internship... I'm totally jealous. I might be headed up there for next week's show. There are several air specials this month.

Speaking of Air specials...Did you know you can fly to NYC ROUNDTRIP for $97 next week on JetBlue? ROUNDTRIP...$97...JetBlue...Ninety-seven dollars. That's less than I spend at the grocery store each week.

No party, but it was also Chris Funk of The Decemberists' birthday and I saw them discuss it onstage. Yesterday was a good day.

Ha ha, yeah, I wondered if the band really wants to be in articles like that... I assumed the writer was a message board member, but I've never seen any other "Joey's" around here.

Yeah, we tape Friday's show on Monday, so I can say that they do impress. Dave also goes crazy over them; he thoroughly enjoys it.

how fucking shitty for that asshole to even mention the features, yet alone the fucking extent in which he did.

this joey hood guy needs to make himself known on here, expain himself, and apologize.

You know - it has been a while. Digsy, after the internship, where are you going? Maybe gonna come back to the 'Boro? That would be nifty.

And sorry, Sina, that my computer sucks so bad that I couldn't get you "Contrast." I could send it through the mail? Haha. Let me know - I don't mind fronting the $2 it would take to get it to ya. - Well, you probably have it now.

Not a whole lot new going on here, Digsy. --->

First, Forrest Hall was Forrest Hall - then a group wanted Forrest Hall off - then another group stopped it from coming off - now it's Forrest Hall. That's pretty much it.

I've had some job prospects, so aside from visiting the Boro, I'm a New York transplant. It's pretty amazing up here. I miss driving the car (homeless people don't try to sell me batteries in my car, that's only enjoyed on the subway).

I live in Bensonhurst, if that's even the correct spelling. Shows how much time I spend there. I'm about 5 stops from Coney Island and a good 45 minutes to Letterman (@ Broadway/53rd). So way far out. I'm looking for a place a lot closer.

That's Frank Caliendo, a former cast member on "MadTV." Dave loves him and has him on often. This is the second time he's been on as John Madden since August, and he was also on during impressionist week. He did both Dave and Paul...pretty nice.

I thought he was awesome on impressionist week, but the John Madden thing last night...... I guess I'm just not into John Madden enough to think it's funny.

Yeah I don't know anything about John Madden aside from what Frank prefaced his imperssion of him with last time he was on. And I had the 1993 sega edition of his football game. I didn't play it except to run around in circles.

I used to love his impersonations of Madden. The one last night was pretty bizzare though... at least to me. I guess maybe because they actually introduced him as John Madden and never said a thing about Frank Caliendo.
