The aorta, the body's largest artery, stretches from the chest to below the kidneys, expanding and contracting with the pressure of blood driven directly into it by the heart. Although its walls are extraordinarily strong, like other blood vessels the aorta can sometimes develop bulges, called aneurysms.

Prompted by a new GQ article about Ayn Rand (The Bitch is Back with this great illo by John Ritter), our friend Richard Metzger wrote about his relationship with her writing and ideas. Via mail order I collected single issues of The Objectivist and The Ayn Rand Letter until I had them all and I kept them in bound cases like holy relics. This is what can happen when bright kids read Ayn Rand, they get...

Leslie Jordan has always made me laugh ever since I first saw him on a 1989 episode of Murphy Brown , in which he played one of Candice Bergen's secretaries. I also enjoyed him on the John Ritter sitcom, Hearts Afire , back in 1993-95, but the actor is now best known for two of his more recent--and hilarious--characters: Earl "Brother Boy" Ingram, the cross-dressing Tammy Wynette-impersonating...

Filed under: Other Comedy Shows , OpEd , Reality-Free , Gone Too Soon This week, we're going to take a bit of a departure from the shows we normally cover. It's very rare that a show that puts out 76 episodes could be considered by anyone to be gone too soon, and yet I make the argument that 8 Simple Rules (for Dating My Teenage Daughter) is that show. I'm also not going to try and convince you that...

This story for some reason reminded me of this: Alas, if we did have an Americathon, I think Bill Clinton was more of a John Ritter-like president. Obama's much more of a PBS pledge-drive guy.

Reading Discretion Required : This post contains minimal mention of scientific research. A recent University of Maryland study found a whopping correlation between television watching and well-being: Happy people reported spending more than 30% less time watching TV per day than their less happy peers. A case of confirming the obvious? I am not so sure. Since 1985, I have mostly hated and disdained...

“It’s a beautiful Monday here in the Big Apple,” says a disc jockey heard coming from a car radio just a few minutes into Peter Bogdanovich’s THEY ALL LAUGHED. That the voice we hear actually belongs to Bogdanovich himself makes a lot of sense. Released in 1981, THEY ALL LAUGHED really is set in a beautiful fantasy version of that city, one of the writer/director’s own...
