Oscar Hammerstein had a terrific 1943, with Oklahoma! opening in March and Carmen Jones opening in December. Finding himself the toast of Broadway again after a long string of failures, he took out a self-deprecating ad in the January 5, 1944 issue of Variety listing his flops. An absolute legend.

Sometimes I'll think I've gotten into something organically and uniquely and then two weeks later, there'll be an article in a major publication that says "Millennial Women Embrace Standing in Dark, Pretending to Be Mushrooms" and it's like, wow, where do ideas even come from.

"Animals in the wild have no residual stool on their anus," I say. I've been asked to fill time at this wedding while the DJ gets set up, but I'm on minute ten and I'm out of cute anecdotes about the bride. "Animals in the wild have no residual stool on their anus." My god, I've said it twice.

Oh my god the dietician who is telling everyone in the White House to only eat steak and sauerkraut doesn't wipe his ass.

To O’Mara, the diet is not just a temporary means of losing weight but a way to eat for good. He has been doing it for 10 years, and credits it with turning his life around. At one point in our conversation he pulled up the Bristol Stool Chart, which ranges from Type 1 (“separate, hard pellets”) to Type 7 (“watery, no solid pieces”). O’Mara is consistently delivering Type 4 (“smooth, soft, like a snake”), with pointed ends, indicative of healthy rectal function, he told me. “When you start eating healthy, you don’t need toilet paper,” he claimed. “Animals in the wild have no residual stool on their anus.” He described a proper bowel movement to me this way: odorless, wipe-free, over in three to seven seconds and “nearly orgasmic.” “I could have a bowel movement behind a sheet at a dinner party in the corner of the room,” he said, “and nobody would know.”

I'm helping out with some musical auditions this fall (singing harmonies, turning pages) and will be giving the auditionees the pleasure and challenge of performing with someone who is giving absolutely nothing.

I love following the Pauline Kael bot because it's a healthy reminder than when it comes to takes driving the public to madness, we have actually entered a rather peaceful era.
