Today is my friend Marney’s birthday. Today is also Old Maid’s Day. I’m sure those two things are just coincidence.

Sad, Rebecca Eckler, sad. Only someone deep in the throes of hubris could think that someone stole the plot of Knocked Up from them. Quill & Quire offers their own take on the [ahem] story:
“A warning to comedy writers out there: if you’re working on a gag in which someone has to buy something embarrassing at the supermarket and the cashier calls for a price check on the store PA system, you better make sure Eckler hasn’t used that one – if she has, she’ll think you nicked it from her.”
Tee hee.

For the sake of my blood pressure, Christopher Hume needs to stop writing articles like this one about the Toronto waterfront.

Old Maid’s Day, eh? I didn’t even get a card. Then again, I’m not as old as you…….haha! They say you are only as old as you feel. I’m going to check the mailbox again!
P.S. I hadn’t read what they say about the day when I wrote that…His Majesty is currently here watching a movie! Sorry Randy!
Dude, you’re…what, 70 days younger than me? Then again, Marney’s only 56 days older than me…
Holy crap…I just read some of the earlier posts on that site. Posted about a month ago: this item about the Alfred Hitchcock film Marnie. I happen to know that’s the film my friend was named after (even though it’s spelled differently).
Just catching up… that’s for the shout out… even if it is related to an old maid.
My pleasure.
