WatchI feel like it’s been a 10 year wait just for the TRAILER. cannot handleeeee.
chriskelly:
The first trailer for “Blue Valentine.”
This looks like a movie I am going to want to watch over and over again for forever. I can hardly stand it that I can’t watch it now. It looks so sad that I might die.
Also, Boner Alert: It’s NC-17.

According to the Eastsider, a lovely sounding crafts beer store is set to open on Sunset in the very near future. This part is especially jazzy:
The plan is to eventually stock the store and a tasting room with as many as 1,000 bottles of beer, ranging from $2 mini bottles to large, champagne-sized containers fetching $60 and more. John Nugent, whose own tastes in beer range from German...

Jezebel ventures through Mariah’s latest perfume/3D ad/website adventure with pretty middling results. Also, Lisa Frank + Mimi makes so much sense, it’s ridiculous it didn’t happen sooner.

Much like the fact that later today I will be watching “Big Brother” and eating pizza by the slice in my underwear, the eventual legalization of gay marriage is a foregone conclusion.

Lotte Burke: Amazing fitness guru... awful mother? →
Becky — who also happens to be a Pure Barre fitness instructor — sent this my way. Lotte Burke is the root of all these Bar Method/Pure Barre/Pop Physique workout class spin-offs that are taking the nation by storm.

I think the best part of this information (other than Jon Benjamin being back on TV) is the press quote from the network:
“Says Comedy Central’s Kent Alterman: ‘Jon Benjamin has always been a very good driver. Outfitting him with a brand new van, with automatic transmission and filled with video recording equipment, will really allow his creativity to flourish.’
