A midsummer night’s script

Bloggy McBlogalot will again be on summer holidaythrough Labor Dayto complete a hijinx-filled “Arrested Development” spec.

In the meantime, revel in “Pier Pressure” from Season One, check out the graphical subtleties of Paper Rad, and for the love of Christ, go see “Me and You and Everyone We Know.”

Special education

Me: How much are these stickers?

Clerk: Let me scan that. Let’s see. Stickety-Doo-Da. 99 cents.

Me: Great. Thanks.

Clerk: You a teacher?

Me: No.

Awkward silence.

Me: I just like stickers.

Tomorrowland

I made a reservation at the Disneyland Resort (Welcome to the Magic!) today.

“That’s S as in Sam,” I spelled my name. “T as in Tom, A as in Adam, D as in David, T as in Tom.”

“Let me get that right,” the operator interrupted. “That’s S as in Simba, T as in Tigger, A as in Aladdin, D as in Daisy, and T as in Tigger?”

“Yes,” I said.

It was more right than I had ever been.

From the Straight Talk Express

“Leaving Las Vegas”? Terrible movie. It had alcoholism and prostitution in it.
