You pretty much need to read this (from the TONY blog)
It’s this week’s testy Hot Seat with Joaquin Phoenix, written by the lovely Laura Leu, who called me in a bit of a panic after the former Leaf Phoenix hung up on her. I’d say she got a good interview out of him regardless. I, for one, have read it about a zillion times already.
I'll be on Red Eye tonight
What’s delightfully last-minute-esque and smells an awful lot like awesome? It’s the fact that I’ll be on Red Eye tonight for the second half of the show. Cancel your 2am plans and make these ones instead. I’ll be following Ann Coulter. Because she refused to follow me. (It’s conceivable that I made that up).
perhaps you had to be there
But I thought it was funny in a 50s movie way. This morning I was half awake in the makeup chair and the makeup guy was putting makeup on my chest which is something I always want them to do because I’m pale and if anything I feel like I usually have to nudge them in that direction because they usually tell me “you’re fine, it matches.” But he, on his own, took note of my startling ass-whiteness and began rectifying. “I need you to open like this” he said, pulling my jacket open. I did and he really got in there and then after he said, “Sorry if I was overly familiar with you. It’s early.” I said it was okay (which it was). Then he said, “I assure you it was lost on me.”
This one's like the one below, only with the tease at the beginning
It sounded less tawdry in my head, I swear!
The segment formerly knows as "bawdy language"
I put this up on the TONYblog earlier: We have Gossip Girl fever!
And we’re taking bets on when it’s going to break. But for now there is this Web compendium of awesomeness including but not limited to embarrassing teen photos of the TONY staff. You’ll pretty much want to read every last bit of it!
Today's TONYblog 1 Thing
This one’s mine but you should look into getting one that’s similar.
Happy October 1, everyone. By this point you should be neck-deep in apple bobbing and nary an idle moment should go by that you don’t admire the bountiful horn of plenty placed on a nearby horizontal surface (I keep mine on Dustin’s desk). Now, should you not yet have a horn of plenty or comparable cornucopia, you should march out right now to get one, because otherwise you’ll have nowhere to keep your gourds and Indian corn. I’d also recommend jumping or taking naps in freshly raked piles of leaves, drinking cider and storing nuts in your cheeks for winter. Before long you’ll be cutting eyeholes in a white sheet and mock-scaring the bejesus out of neighborhood children, but let’s not get ahead of ourselves. For tonight there is only love and also the New York Film Festival. Something tells me you like movies. Am I right?

As of today
I decided I’m pretty much tired of anyone who has “vision” or “a vision” for anything.
