It certainly doesn’t sound like a musical from the 50s. Among other things, it includes kidnapping, a dance-off, literal shotgun weddings, one woman moving in with seven men, and an opening number in which the main character expresses thanks for an unknown woman’s beautiful "hide."

A Word or 108: Superbowl Redux: I found myself wandering over to the Puppy Bowl on Animal Planet a couple times yesterday, and that isn't a bad thing -- the kitten halftime show was excellent. Almost all the Superbowl commercials had been leaked onto the web a week ago so there was nothing new there. I still can't understand why, with all those professionals there, that it would take almost Prince's entire (fantastic) set...

- Just like Mel Gibson, Judith Regan allegedly has a Jew problem too - LA Times

Tonight - Tuesday Got Charlie Brown for all the kids, and then late night TV is really kickin' it. "NBA Basketball" (PRIME, 7:00 p.m.) Clippers @ Kings - also Bucks @ Lakers on Fox Sports at 7:30 "A Charlie Brown Christmas" (ABC, 8:00 p.m.) The perennial classic. "Big Day" (ABC, 9:00 p.m.) Sitcom series premiere. A sitcom about frickin' weddings. This is gonna be a winner. "Veronica Mars" (the CW, 9:00 p.m.) Dean Begley...

We just go into reverie when thinking of picking apples in orchards out in Illinois or cherries in Door County, Wisconsin.

Weddings and Bar Mitzvahs aside, how many meals get planned over a year ahead of time?

Rioting continued yesterday in the LA County jails in Castaic. The LA Times reports more than 500 inmates were involved, nearly 100 were injured and 28 had to be hospitalized.

First off, The Stranger's Seattle books department has hit another one out of the park with "Being Savage: Dan Savage's Older Brother Reviews His Younger Brother's New Book." Read it and chuckle in that pleasant feeling of being included in the inner circle. Ben makes comments like "Danny doesn't go far enough, he pulls his punches." This about a man who writes one of the most sexually explicit columns in Internetville? It's funny to hear what his older brother thinks of him.

reading anything, especially Harry Potter. We here at LAist are humbled by the shocking aftermath of our decision to put off reading Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince for a week. It came as a surprise to no one, especially ourselves, that when you wait to do something, you might not have time to do it.

Channel surfing the other night, LAist stumbled upon the recent HBO Film/BBC Production, The Girl in the Café, starring Bill Nighy (humorously unforgettable as the aging rock star in Love Actually) and Kelly Macdonald, most recently seen as Peter Pan in Finding Neverland. Written by British rom-com god Richard Curtis, famous for penning screenplays like Four Weddings and a Funeral, Notting Hill, Bridget Jones’s Diary and the aforementioned Love Actually, the film is a romance with a cause.

Some folks say you can't go wrong with a sheet cake from Costco. Well, friends, yes you can. While we appreciate the fact that the frosting is a tad bit lighter (whipped cream) the bottom line is, it's still mass produced and full of who knows what kind of unnatural ingredients. Yes, it's inexpensive. And if you're feeding a bunch of ingrates you don't like, such as, oh, let's say co-workers, you'll get your money's worth. Far worse offenders, are the cakes that come from the depths of the grocery store refridgerated cases. Vons promises the "Moistest Cake Ever" on some of their packaging, and it's a downright lie. The frosting from places like Albertsons, Ralphs, and Vons, is always stiff and sickeningly sweet, and you're never sure if they'll get the name right.
