Hey, it's Friday.
Sit back and enjoy this video... if you have cats, you've probably seen a lot of this in your own home.
I know I have...
Gotta get a flipcam and make MY kitties famous!

Well, I won't be planning to "visit" Alaska anytime soon.
Thanks a lot, TLC.
Yes, the cable network has provided an outlet to the ever-lovely Sarah Palin -- you know, the one who couldn't hack completing her term as governor.
She'll be hosting a travelogue series about Alaska, with filming set to begin this summer.
At least it will be only an eight-part series, so it won't be too hard to avoid.

Pity that she is hosting, because Alaska could be a lovely state to be featured.
But looking at Alaska's fantastic features through her eyes --- no, no, no!
If only she could be edited from the series.
This stint should help keep her in style for a while -- supposedly TLC is paying $1 million an episode.
Golly, gee, wow...

First Peter Graves and now Robert Culp!
ah, my youth....
My spies are dropping, well, like flies!
It was sad to hear that Culp, who starred with Bill Cosby in "I Spy" -- and maybe you remember "Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice" -- passed away today. Apparently he collapsed and was taken to a hospital, where he died. He was 79.
I loved "I Spy" ... and I hope this doesn't mean the "men from UNCLE" will be next!
RIP, Bob...

Finally, a show worth watching. You're not lost on an island for years or left trying to figure out why an annoying mother of eight still is on TV.
No, just check out The Discovery Channel's latest nature project, "Life."
Obviously a lot of people have been doing just that, because according to the Nielsen ratings, it has garnered the network's best ratings for a new series in a decade.

The huge undertaking was four years in the making. When you tune in, you'll see footage shot in high definition. That pulled in 11.8 million viewers during the first episode at 8 p.m. Sunday. The second episode immediately followed and reached 11.5 million viewers, according to the Nielsen Co.

So give it a try. It's far better than enduring a lot of no-talent chumps attempting to sing or dance.

To anyone who might not feel humiliated enough on the dating scene, here is a new opportunity for you.
Jerry Springer is going to be the host of a dating game series.

According to the Associated Press, "Baggage" will debut next month on cable channel the Game Show Network. It gives three contestants the chance to win the eye of a prospective date. The hitch: The contestants have to reveal their faults and foibles.
Hmm... isn't that what eventually happens?
But of course most people don't have Springer on their dates...

The lucky players will carry suitcases onstage to represent the baggage they'll confess to and defend. Among the planned suitors: a shoplifter, a woman who gets advice from psychics and a control freak.
Hey, just like real life!
Look for the half-hour show to debut April 19.

Hey everyone ... I'm going behind bars on April 14, as a way to raise money for MDA..
