And Now, A Word From Many Sponsors

I had planned to write a rather long post tonight but...I didn't. I'll save it for Monday. In the meantime, I'll have a roundup of the worst Super Bowl ads at the end of the game on Sunday, over at TV Squad. Have a great weekend.

I Apologize To The Internet

So I recently got an e-mail, demanding that I get a Facebook account. It's a funny online world: a place where you have to explain why you don't do something.

I had Facebook once, but got rid of it after a couple of weeks. Too much of a time suck. Besides, how can I have a Facebook page when I'm busy on Twitter all day?

Big Cities

Newcomers eventually get used to New York City. Of course, you could say the same thing about Boston, Chicago, Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles, or one hundred other places.

Oh, It's Here Now

I've moved Professor Barnhardt's Journal from its former location to this location. Easier to keep all of my sites under one roof. Those other sites will remain as archives, however.

Random Links

Have a really old calendar? You might still be able to use it.
Mad Men illustrated.
The Cartoon Lounge has a lot of funny stuff.
The Candy Dish Blog, the official candy blog of the American Confectioners Association
Happy 25th Anniversary, Mac.

Over at PBJ...

I've been neglecting Professor Barnhardt's Journal for a while now. I really want to change that, though I can't guarantee I'll have something every day. However, there's something new up there today, a piece by the very funny Ken Levine (M*A*S*H, Cheers, Frasier, The Simpsons, Becker, etc) about taking a trip this winter. Please go read it. Thanks!

TV Talk

I'll be on TV Talk tonight at 6:20pm ET, talking about, well, television.

The Impossible Dream

Last night's dream: I'm working at a large corporation. Not sure what we do exactly, but the place is spotless, with clean, shining hallways and neat offices. My boss is Boston Red Sox GM Theo Epstein, and he's mad that we're all having a paper clip fight in the office. Suddenly, furry, white bugs appear everywhere and we have to be decontaminated in a large room. We all break out in a big, splashy dance number set to ABC's "The Look of Love."

The hell?
