The biggest story in Illinois this week is of course the White Sox World Series Victory. This history-making win caused great jubilation all over the state, but it came at a terrible price: Laurence Simon, a person of great importance to cats everywhere, is not happy. Hopefully, this carnival will cheer him up.

I'd suggest that a better use of the time of whatever editor wrote that, and of the Times'valuable newsprint (and web space) would be collecting some oral histories of just what the civil rights movement accomplished so that we all have some appreciation for it. Then once they - and the rest of the country is in touch with what we've done we might be able to think about "how to move forward." You'd think that in honoring Rosa Parks, the New Freaking York Times would be able to do that.

But don ’ t think I ’ m shit talking the Chinchilla here because he, as usual, made me a tres delicious breakfast yesterday morning, and then this morning sang me the Intermission Music from Monty Python ’ s Quest For The Holy Grail to relax me as I peed next to him while he was shaving (I have trouble peeing with other people in the room). And that, coupled with his excellent hair and his tolerance for the cat, makes me want to have sex with him any day.

Supporters of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh will contend that Lalu is the price to pay for political stability. They use the same argument to justify the consistently retrogressive influence of the Left parties. They must realise that the price of political stability — but nothing remarkable by way of governance or economic reform — is increasingly being paid in terms of human lives.

“ We are indeed, ” Eric answers cheerfully as he tromps up to the front porch of the cosy little ranch house and sticks his hand out for the client to shake it. “ Eric, Eric Bana, nice to meet you. This is Karl Urban. We haven ’ t quite got him fully trained yet, he still just growls and grunts, and that ’ s Orlando Bloom. You ’ ll want to be nice to him, he determines the payments. Sorry we ’ re a bit late we got lost as fuck getting out here. When you said turn at the horse by the road you weren ’ t kidding, huh? ”

Wow. I got up this morning and checked my email to find out this had happened. Kyle Lake, the pastor of University Baptist Church in Waco (the church started by Chris Seay in the early 90's and where David Crowder is the worship pastor), passed away yesterday. While performing a baptism, Kyle reached for a microphone and somehow was electrocuted. Doctors who were in the service performed chest compressions for forty minutes before he was taken to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 11: 30am.

According to Vincent Price, when he and Peter Lorre went to view Bela Lugosi's body during Bela's funeral, Lorre, upon seeing Lugosi dressed in his famous Dracula cape, quipped, "Do you think we should drive a stake through his heart just in case?"

Today, November 21st, 2001, I've seen the film "Harry Potter and the Sorceror's Stone", starring Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, Emma Watson, and a lot of other people. I think this will be the beginning of a beautiful friendship...

In all those Tracy-hepburn movies more than a half-century ago, it was the snap and crackle of a romance between equals that was so exciting. You still see it onscreen occasionally - the incendiary chemistry of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie playing married assassins aiming for mutually assured orgasms and destruction in "Mr. and Mrs. Smith." Interestingly, that movie was described as retro because of its salty battle of wits between two peppery lovers. Moviemakers these days are more interested in exploring what Steve Martin, in his novel "Shopgirl," calls the "calm cushion" of romances between unequals.

I hated the grubby, unisex jeans and no-makeup look and drugs that zoned you out, and I couldn't understand the appeal of dances that didn't involve touching your partner. In the universe of Eros, I longed for style and wit. I loved the Art Deco glamour of 30's movies. I wanted to dance the Continental like Fred and Ginger in white hotel suites; drink martinis like Myrna Loy and William Powell; live the life of a screwball heroine like Katharine Hepburn, wearing a gold lamé gown cut on the bias, cavorting with Cary Grant, strolling along Fifth Avenue with my pet leopard.

Generally rockers like Blondie, Cyndi Lauper, Pat Benetar, ACDC, but the few oldies like Paul Simon and Don Mclean … not to much different from now really … for the exception of the introduction of the Seattle music scene in middle school …

Philip Seymour Hoffman is a (not very tall) bear of a man, so casting him as Truman Capote was an exercise in overcoming appearances. So much of Capote is mannered, from the dress to the flutey voice to the lisp, but after a while, it did disappear for me, the way that it disappeared for all those square people in Kansas who at first regarded him as you or I would regard a Martian. I was pleased to see the character reveal his steel, briefly and backhandedly at first. As events went along, he dropped many of his off-putting mannerisms, and perversely I liked him better even as his behavior became more obnoxious. He seemed to know, long before he published it, that the book would be both triumph and ruination. He wasn't wrong.

In 2003, we had "Girl With a Pearl Earring," in which Colin Firth's Vermeer erotically paints Scarlett Johansson's Dutch maid, and Richard Curtis's "Love Actually," about the attraction of unequals. The witty and sophisticated British prime minister, played by Hugh Grant, falls for the chubby girl who wheels the tea and scones into his office. A businessman married to the substantial Emma Thompson, the sister of the prime minister, falls for his sultry secretary. A novelist played by Colin Firth falls for his maid, who speaks only Portuguese.
