Brooks, I laughed so hard at the whole opening segment of this episode, Rich came downstairs to see what the big deal was. When this part came on, I almost DIED laughing, especially when Jon Stewart immitated Little Richard. I am soooo glad he Stephen are back from re-runs. I get seriously bummed when they're gone.

Me too! Having fresh episodes of these shows is one of the best parts of my day. Jon has been on quite a tear lately. That bit with the cowboy hat and bale of hay still has me laughing.

Comfort zones

I am a grown person I know, but I still believe in concept of security blankets especially in times of stress. During 9/11 it was my new kittens from the humane society that I held and loved on while soaking in the reality of those hard moments that begin four years ago today. This week it has really helped to post blog entries and wear my new kangol visor, that already looks like it is 10 years old, while absorbing the news from Louisiana. I know that is weird, especially since I am woman. I have heard criticism from friends and family alike about how girls shouldn't wear caps my entire life, but it never has and never will stop me. It keeps overhead light glare out of my eyes, hides less than presentable hair and for some reason, provides me with a sense of comfort and relaxation and always has. When I was a kid, I wouldn't wear my team cap from softball until the day of the game. There was something sacred and ceremonial about the 'team cap' and that magic carries o
