Uninvite?

Can someone please explain to me why "uninvited" is a word, yet "uninvite" is not?

Gromit!

Ladies and gentlemen, I am pleased to announce that Eric and I are getting a dog!  We’re getting a miniature schnauzer, to be exact, and we’re going to call him Gromit (as in Wallace & Gromit).  We picked him out yesterday, and will be picking him up in a couple weeks, right after we move.

Isn’t he CUTE?

Googlzon

Take a look at this very creepy video which predicts the merging of Amazon.com and Google, along with the demise of The New York Times.  This can only lead to one thing.

I am not a Jew

True story:  Eric and I were in Miami last weekend, and we saw Jackie Mason not once, but twice.  Both times happened to be at lunch.  The second time, we were seated right next to his table at Cafeteria on Lincoln Road.  When our food came, Jackie Mason saw the steak on Eric’s salad and concluded, "You must be Jewish.  But your friend — he’s not Jewish.  He looks like a gentile!"

The jig is up.  I’ve been found out.  I am not a Jew.

The Office

If you haven’t seen The Office on NBC, then you have no idea what you’re missing.  I never really got into the original British version, but this one is hilarious.  This week’s episode was particularly hysterical.  Thursday nights at 9:30 PM, my friends.  Watch it.
