I'm sorry, friend. I truly am.

I got mad at a marketing campaign and I took it out on a show I haven't even seen all of.

That was wrong.

For those who are fans, I'm thrilled this thing is coming back soon! Hopefully, I'll count myself among your numbers before too long.

I really would love for you to join us on this one joey.

I really want to, friend. So many people that I love, love this show. And Jason Bateman is just awesome. And I love Will Arnett, too.

The thing that blows me away every time is how they were able to make 3 seasons of incredible episodes out of just the one long running banana stand joke, and nothing else.

The weird thing is, the banana stand phrase, while quotable, is probably not one of the top 10 things I would even list from the show. I dont even think of it as a joke. I get where d,t is coming from though, the harping on the chicken dance thing people do bugs me a bit, although it works in the show still.

The only problem I have with this post is the word "might"


and it's not even close.

I prefer South Park and Python. Although Arrested Development may be more consistent.

The trick, I've found, is to have a healthy amount of disdain for all people, everywhere. That way, not only are they too far below your radar to ever affect you in any lasting way, but most of the time you don't know what they like or feel, anyway.

My wife actually asked me last night if I'm going to take off of work the day the new episodes are released. Fortunately it's a Sunday so I won't have to. I told her not to expect me to do anything that day, though.

Day after is Memorial Day, right? Pace yourself, you've got two days.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?
