Surprising Things I Recently Learned

• That Sex and the City movie is apparently almost two-and-a-half hours long, for some reason. Did they resurrect Sergio Leone and get him to direct it? And couldn't HBO have diverted some of those resources to making those Deadwood movies?
• Clay Aiken is having a baby? Like, with an actual woman? Are you sure we're talking about the same Clay Aiken? (Oh, it was via artificial insemination. That makes a bit more sense.)
• The perpetually perky psuedo-chef Rachael Ray is evidently an enthusiastic supporter of global jihad. And she seemed like such a nice girl! Actually, after her SXSW showcase featuring Holy Fuck, nothing about Rachael Ray could possibly surprise me.
