After my close call with John Tesh and Kenny G, I needed to regroup, meet back up with Christy, and get back on the trail of the Big 4 TV networks. Because of the low light and unfriendly ambiance, we decided to rendezvous at the Moustache Café. Over Bailey’s and coffees and those World Famous […]

Tesh, Kenny G shed light on cunning Inner Circle plot
My divine quest to bring la revolucion to network television was at an impasse. The trail I had followed last week connecting Colin Farrell to the Big Four’s infamous “Inner Circle” went cold. Things were beginning to look less and less hopeful. So, in order to boost morale, I sent my yoga-starved ninja vixen of […]
Quest into Farrell’s Inner Circle turns ugly
After the media blackout at this year’s Academy Awards, the trail for the Hollywood Unholy turned cold for Christy and me. So I decided to take my common-law wife/latter-day bodyguard out for a drink. We went to this Irish Pub in Santa Monica, which I heard from a well-placed informant on the “inside,” was a […]

Network TV and I are through.” Christy wasn’t so quick to agree with this judgement. “The masses love Norah Jones,” she said. “Why don’t you?” “No […]
Endless media coverage of King of Pop should beat it
I dreamt I was kicking it with Michael Jackson at his Neverland Ranch last weekend. The man was quite the host. The whole time it was all the hot dogs and snow-cones I could eat. The guest room he put me up in had a lot of really classy vases and statues. The paintings hung […]
