Please enjoy these weird little promos Matt Damon did for “Toilet Day.” This is for those of you who enjoy Political Damon as well as those of you who simply want to hear one of our finest actors say the word “diarrhea.” (Ad Week)

I dug up this interview with “Sons Of Anarchy“‘s Maggie Siff so I could have an excuse to talk about last night’s episode. SPOILERS OKAY? Okay. FOR REAL. (Her interview is good, too. She discusses the cuckoo bird Ophelia-esque Tara we’re just beginning to see.) Me? I’m excited for Opie (now a Horatio/Laertes hybrid). I thought Gemma was referring to Jackson as “the son” at the end of last week’s episode. But could she have meant Opie? OH JOY! (TVLine)

Okay, back to reality. Here is lovely little correspondence between Einstein and Gandhi. (Letters of Note)

The window dressers at this Eddie Bauer are either huge SNL fans, or idiots. (BioTV)

Check out this fantastic tumblr celebrating the innovation of some Thai flood victims. I’m going to start hoarding plastic water bottles now. (Thai Flood Hacks)

Apparently Paul Bettany is in a new play…with Megan Fox. Hmmm, and he’s letting his hair flop over his receding hairline in the hopes we don’t notice. It’s okay, Paul, we love you no matter what. Just to prove it to you, Paul, I’m going to watch A Knight’s Tale later. Now on Netflix Instant! (Celebitchy)

Mayor Bloomburg’s office has released a ransom photo of the Occupy Wall Street books that were confiscated yesterday. They’re safe! Yay! Cause, I mean, if you’re going to destroy books, you should at least make something pretty out of them. (Magic World Image)

It seems the “Doctor Who” film rumor may be just that, a rumor. I delight in Steven Moffat’s snarky response. (Gamma Squad) That didn’t stop the folks over at Den Of Geek from proposing some actors to fill out the Doctor’s coat. It’s not a bad list and I particularly approve of Laurie and Ejiofer. (Den Of Geek)

The internet swears to me this is a real Obama quote. But the internet has lied before.

Bust out the fancy grubs, our very own Emu has been name People’s Sexiest Man Alive. Why yes I did just google “What do Emus eat?” Thank you for noticing. (Entertainment Weekly)

Speaking of visual feasts, heres a fantastic cosplay gallery including TK and his lovely wife.* (Comics Alliance)

Finally, Mental Floss has selected a few photos from the annual National Geographic contest. I can’t believe the first one is real. (Mental Floss)

Speaking of photography, for all you amateurs out there, here’s a super nifty, no frills way to prevent camera shake.

And to make up for the dry content of that last video, here’s one packed to brim with whimsy. BEAUTIFUL CGI CIRCUS SNAILS.

*Not actually TK and his lovely wife.

Shouldn't it be Sexiest Emu Alive?

Posted by: Jadine at November 16, 2011 1:04 PM

As much as I want to love Hugh Laurie again, I really like the idea of Sam Rockwell as the Doctor. They had some really good suggestions on their list, I'd be happy to see any of them in the part.

Posted by: snapnhiss at November 16, 2011 1:13 PM

I have never previously noticed the asymmetry of Emu's face. It is almost enough to distract me from how emu-like he looks.

Posted by: llp at November 16, 2011 1:15 PM

Sexiest Ratite Alive!

Posted by: Jerry at November 16, 2011 1:15 PM

That camera shake thing is fucking awesome.

Posted by: Nadine at November 16, 2011 1:16 PM

I have to watch last week's SoA ep again cause everybody keeps saying that Gemma said "the son" but I'm pretty sure she said "A son".

Posted by: MissRos at November 16, 2011 1:22 PM

I am sleep deprived, and that may have had some influence, but when I saw The Emu news, I laughed out loud in my cublicle in a way I generally reserve for a TK real time review, or Dustin's coherent apoplexy. It was like that time the Fug Girls described someone's leggings as looking like they were made from Miss Piggy.

The EMU?! It's just so deliciously ridiculous, as are the photos of the 'sexiest men' on the People website.

Posted by: Mrs. Julien at November 16, 2011 1:24 PM

The National Geographic photos are beautiful, but the icthyophobic (galeophobic* specifically) best be prepared: it's very large.

*My new word for the day.

Posted by: Mrs. Julien at November 16, 2011 1:29 PM

I wonder if they ate the snails when they were done filming.

Posted by: Mrs. Julien at November 16, 2011 1:30 PM

Fassbender was robbed. Although, I suppose I am grateful that he is not gracing the cover of People mag.

Posted by: Samantha at November 16, 2011 1:41 PM

You get picked for sexiest man, you best be sure you have enough bubble yum lip gloss for 3 coats.

Posted by: Cree83 at November 16, 2011 1:42 PM

I have a lot of things to say about today's Love:

1. BCoop is neither the sexiest man nor the sexiest Emu alive. I don't know what they're smokin'.

2. If you click to the Paul Bettany article and scroll down through the photos, at the end you come to one of him, his son, and the MOST ADORABLE DOG ever. It's an ovary-exploding, orgasm-inducing trifecta.

3. I can't believe ANY of those National Geographic photos are real. So there.

Posted by: MM at November 16, 2011 1:45 PM

Bradley Cooper, with those uneven eyes, is like the Shannen Doherty of emus.

Posted by: Iris at November 16, 2011 1:57 PM

SOA SPOILER QUESTION: Has Clay now alienated absolutely everyone? I think Tig was the last one standing and now I can't think of one person who might still have any interest in keeping him alive.

Also, congrats to The Emu. It's about time the sexiness of over-sized flightless birds was acknowledged openly and not just my dirty secret.

Posted by: PaddyDog at November 16, 2011 1:58 PM

I was gonna say, if that's me and Mrs. TK, she's standing on a ladder.

Posted by: TK at November 16, 2011 2:03 PM

The first National Geographic picture is taken with a tilt shift lens. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miniature_faking

I want one SO BAD. Though, it takes more than just a great lens to get those to come out so great.

Posted by: Paultera at November 16, 2011 2:05 PM

Oh PaddyDog, I wouldn't exactly call it a "secret".

I've been meaning to ask. How are Bob Frapples, TheEmpress, phedre, Irina, hippyherb , severine, elisamaza, Luis, lillie, mex, jmd, eliza, marie, Socraz6, zach, MyBuddyKeith, and ArchaeoKelly, molly’s lips, jayem, Neon, and Bothari today?

Posted by: Mrs. Julien at November 16, 2011 2:05 PM

MM YOU MIND STEALER!! I was literally about to scamper back here and say 'Bettany has the cutest dog you guys'

Posted by: Nadine at November 16, 2011 2:05 PM

t I'm pretty sure she said "A son"

Ah! I didn't understand what JR was talking about but that clears up my confusion. Yeah, I understood it as "a Son of Anarchy" doing the killin'.

Posted by: snapnhiss at November 16, 2011 2:08 PM

PaddyDog, It was a strong scene to see even Tig give up on him like that. He's alienated (at best) everyone who ever gave a shit about him. I hope the club comes together and votes him down before he gets killed so he lives just long enough to hit bottom.

Posted by: Paultera at November 16, 2011 2:14 PM

Check out this fantastic tumblr celebrating the innovation of some Thai flood victims.

I thought that initially said:

Check out this fantastic tumblr celebrating the innovation of some Thai food victims.

And it still made sense. Thank you for the unintentional(?) chuckle, JoRo. T'was needed.

Posted by: RobP at November 16, 2011 2:56 PM

@MM & Nadine {and whomever}: That's an Australian Shepherd, blue merle
color variety.

That's 'my breed'. I've been involved involved in breed education and purebred
dog rescue activities for them for close to 20 years.

They're very active and quite intelligent, excelling in persuits such as: Herding,
Agility, Tracking and Search & Rescue.

/m-kay. Gush over.

Posted by: Ms MoMo at November 16, 2011 3:03 PM

Hee Hee. Apparently when I write the word 'involved' twice... it means the
rescue stuff has threatened to take over my life, any number of times.
Ok, back to the F/T job here in Corp HR. Woof.

Posted by: Ms MoMo at November 16, 2011 3:05 PM

Hear mea out on this one: I think that cute short guy who plays Vampire Bheel would make a great Doctor. Stephen Moyer. Yes. Him. Also, my toilet bowl brush has more sexual charisma than Bradley Cooper. Well, I did get it at Restoration Hardware, so.

Posted by: klingonfree at November 16, 2011 3:09 PM

Also, mea culpa for misspelling me in above post. Still. Vampire Bheel. Give it some thought.

Posted by: klingonfree at November 16, 2011 3:10 PM

Blue merle doggie is so purdy. Lucky you, Ms. MoMo! I'm sure they are indeed fantastic dogs.

Posted by: MM at November 16, 2011 3:13 PM

How can anyone think Bradley Cooper is sexy? His eyes are crooked and kind of crossed besides looking like a total douche. He's a cross between and emu and a siamese cat. Dude's fugly!

Posted by: Dingle Berry at November 16, 2011 3:15 PM

Paultera: That was a great scene. Tig just killed me with the way he played it. There are so many good character actors on SOA that I weep for its imminent demise because there aren't that many shows willing to hire "off-looking" actors. There's a reason why SOA has had a rotating Deadwood alum spot since season one.

Posted by: PaddyDog at November 16, 2011 3:23 PM

The protesters were told all collected property would be going to the Sanitation Department and could be picked up with ID and proof of ownership. That does not mean they were being thrown out and the difference was explained. There's either really terrible acoustics in the park or a horrid game of telephone happening on the Twitters.

Posted by: Robert at November 16, 2011 3:40 PM

In captivity, an emu meets three new friends everyday. It's trainers.

Posted by: Socrates_Johnson at November 16, 2011 3:43 PM

I do not like the potential Doctor Who list. A couple might be OK but most make me want to throw things.

Posted by: TS at November 16, 2011 4:02 PM

Beautiful photos.

Maybe I should watch this Sons Of Anarchy show someday.

As I quipped elsewhere, at least it wasn't the llama, right?

Posted by: DarthCorleone at November 16, 2011 4:16 PM

You know, I was expecting to see some sort of flowery, intellectually explosive and emotional writing in those letters between Gandhi and Einstein.

Instead, I read two letters that were intelligent, friendly, charming, and sweet in their simplicity and honesty.

And that's so much cooler.

So, thanks for that, Ms. Robinson.

Posted by: Ghisent at November 16, 2011 4:34 PM

MrsMoMo, SUCH a beautiful dog, I've never seen an example of the breed that wasn't just gorgeous and SHO CUTE I WANT TO SHNUGGLE HIS FACE.
Ahem, sorry, I just can't help imagining that as well as being a smart, fuckin' cool ass dog, he'd be the best at hugs. Ever.

Posted by: Nadine at November 16, 2011 5:23 PM

Posted by: TheOtherGreg at November 16, 2011 5:40 PM

Oh please please please let that Obama quote be an actual quote.

Posted by: Lemon Poundcake at November 16, 2011 5:42 PM

Thanks for asking (again!), Mrs. Julien. I am trying to get the image of Jason Statham as the Doctor out of my head...that is all kinds of manly WRONG!

Posted by: molly's lips at November 16, 2011 5:45 PM

Lemon Poundcake, you're welcome.

Posted by: TheOtherGreg at November 16, 2011 5:49 PM

My dog is sexier than that emu twat.

Posted by: Cindy at November 16, 2011 6:15 PM

Bradley has an oily face. Now I know where they harvest emu oil.

I nominate Bill Nighy as the Doctor. Not just Dr. Black but Doctor himself. Or at least a Timelord. If they can't get Bill Nighy, Bill Nye would be fine.

Posted by: Adrien at November 16, 2011 7:48 PM

I just watched "Spearhead From Space" (Third Doctor's first story). I must say, if I was going to see a Doctor's shower scene, I sure wasn't expecting it to be John Pertwee's.

Posted by: Three-nineteen at November 16, 2011 10:29 PM

Oh, and you all realize that this means Opie's probably going to die, right?

Posted by: Three-nineteen at November 16, 2011 10:32 PM

What a bizarre choice. I know not a SINGLE person who thinks the Emu is sexy. Passable, sure, but not sexy. I've disagreed with pretty much every single choice they've made through the years (and YES, this IS very important!), but I've always known people who liked the choices. Not this time. Ick.

Posted by: figgy at November 17, 2011 12:38 AM

My Grandma swears that Emu Cooper looks like he is "always smelling someones shit," I know its weird, but I see it.
