Total Meltdown

My friend Tom Beckner documents a lot of the comedy shows in town. He's got 85 pics from last night's show (unfortunately, I'm not in every single one of them) at Meltdown, which was fantastic. If you live in Los Angeles, Linda Pine puts on one of the best-produced shows around. So put this on your "If I Have a Free Friday Night I Should Check Out Meltdown Comedy. To Do list. Because all the comics she books are really good and there's an open bar.

This has nothing to do with what I was just talking about, but I'm also fairly confident that we will have peace in the Middle East in about 10 years. I just discovered that Oprah is broadcast to Arab countries on NBC 4. Oprah can solve anything. Also, author Greg Behrendt is working on a new book called "Allah's Just Not into That" where he tackles Islamic fundamentalism and shows that suicide bombing isn't cool with God.

I'm glad they're seeing Oprah and not Jerry Springer.

Have you seen the Middle Eastern version of the Maury Povich Show? After they announce "you are NOT the father" they take the woman backstage and do an honor killing.

I know that show because they aired it in-flight when I last flew to Dubai.
