Listen To Reason, Reason Is Calling

• The Monologue:
• Tonight, Gilbert Arenas said that he made "a mistake." He also said that it was "chilly" outside.
• Rod Blagojevich, Darryl Strawberry, and Bret Michaels will be among the competitors on the next iteration of The Apprentice. What? Celebrity Apprentice? Doesn't sound like it.
• Random Pop Culture:
• I realized over the weekend that I was still in the middle of the second season on my rewatch of Lost and I only have four weeks from tomorrow to finish. Starting to roll through again. I'm getting more and more convinced that something was up with John Locke from the beginning. I also enjoy the throw-away spoilers that get slipped in here or there.

• For the record, my actual three favorite movies of the last decade were WALL-E, Anchorman, Gladiator.
• Have you seen the trailer for the new movie Daybreakers? I'm looking forward to watching that when I check out the 100 worst movies of the Teens.
• Random Music Video:
• Michael Stipe turns fifty today. Fifty! This song was released only twenty-one years ago this month and became the theme song for a favorite sitcom.
