I Thought Those Things Were Destroyed After The Show


Father's Day is quickly approaching and if your Pop enjoys giant hoagies, listening to jazz music, saying "just the right thing" and coordinating elaborate anniversary gifts then do I have an idea for you.

Bill Cosby and his wife found some of his old sweaters and his daughter is selling them on eBay to benefit the Hello Friend/Ennis Cosby Foundation, an education non-profit.

The auction takes place from June 2-12 and the the opening bid is only $5,000. Dad would love it and if nothing else you're doing it for the kids.

Life Imitating Jokes


Last night I joked that NBC would have a t-shirt featuring Stanley's new catchphrase "Did I stutter?," by today. While that's yet to make it to the site, you can purchase something else from yesterday's episode...the car.

Andy Bernard, (or should I say Dwight's) Nissan Xterra SE is up for sale on eBay. The SUV is actually owned by a member of The Office production staff.

The current bid is $15,300. For that chunk of change you get the Xterra, an autogtaphed copy of last nights script, and all of the props and stickers used in the episode. Not a bad deal at all.

If all else fails, you can flip it for profit.

While My TV Gently Weeps


Tickets to see Hannah Montana, (played by Achy Breaky offspring and not-preggers Miley Cyrus), live in concert are sold out across the country. One ticket to a show in North Carolina recently sold for over $2,500, causing the VP of the tour company to claim the hysteria over Miley and the "Best of Both Worlds" tour is " like the Beatles."

Yeah...no.

I don't care how fast your tickets sell out or how much greedy soccer moms sell them for on eBay. Until your albums are timeless, or you effect change through a few chord changes and simple ditties, or at least until you do a lot of drugs and grow a beard...you are not like the Beatles. Don't even bring bring them up for comparison.
