Jesus, that was a whirlwind. Every morning and night, so this is why the time flies so fast. Next thing I know, it’s Thursday. And, as it is Thursday, I have a new column out, a fun one, if I may say so myself (and I did), all about guns. It’s called BANG BANG, about my experience handling a gun (and then a bunch of them) for the first time. Warning, I make fun of gun-toters in this story, just a little bit. And I’m really happy with this little video, and hope you enjoy it:

So! This week, what have I been doing? On Tuesday night I was one of the judges at America’s Lip Sync Start contest, which will end with one person receiving $100,000 in cash and prizes. Bootie booyah. I leave town next week, though, so I can’t judge every week (a total of 8 weeks I believe), but I’m planning to come back and judge the finals. Finals are more fun anyway, right? The contest is being held at Cane’s on Tuesday nights, if you want to see some crazy performances, head on over there. Because of this whole out-of-town thing, I am also on hiatus for the NBC spot, but will be bringing it back when I return in July. Where am I going? The snooty answer is the Hamptons and then Martha’s Vineyard. The reality is my aunts’ and then my in-laws. The reality is also that I am REALLY looking forward to getting out of town and spending some downtime with family in a couple of high-profile but essentially small towns.
