Watching Lou Reed perform on one of those mid-80's Saturday Night Live reruns last night, I recalled a misperception I had as a child.

I thought Lou Reed and Joe Piscopo were the same person. Take a look:





Those pictures don't really help my case. At all. But trust me... they look a lot alike.

Let's say I had the power to re-shoot all the TV shows currently on Nick at Nite. And let's say I could re-cast the show... entirely with babies. So yeah, all the characters are portrayed by infants (6-10 months).

What Nick at Nite show would I most like to see with babies?

... Murphy Brown.

Nick at Nite! I demand a Baby Miles Silverberg!

You know that Smashing Pumpkins' song "1979?"

It was released in 1995.

So there's a 16-year difference between 1979 and 1995.

That'd be like if somebody today in 2006 wrote a song called "1990."



... Gross.

Just a moment ago, I was logging into my blogspot.com account and I typed my username as...

"Blogger."

For the record, my username is not "Blogger." It was one of those "brain farts" you hear about in the news.

But man, I wish I had the confidence to have my blogspot.com username be "blogger."

"That's right, blogspot.com! I'm all about blogging! You shall know me as blogger!"

And oh, my password would be "blog-opolis."
