the famous person was falling down drunk

I observed a famous person behaving badly back in the '80s when a TV movie starring two then-famous TV actresses was being filmed in Houston and included scenes in the Galleria shopping mall. My office was nearby, so I went to check it out one afternoon. A scene was being set up at the ice skating rink below and I noticed that Famous Actress 'A' was pacing back and forth, obviously agitated about something. Finally, she whipped off her jacket and threw it to the floor and during the tantrum apparently bumped her knee on something. She was limping badly, and a manager/agent type hustled her away. I naturally thought I should get a closer look, and in going down the stairs came upon sobbing, swearing Actress 'A' sitting on a landing with her aide trying to calm her down. The source of the problem was that Famous Actress 'B' was habitually late in arriving for their scenes. As I passed by, 'A' looked up and glared at me. It wasn't a pretty sight.

Your financial analysts want you to sell Affymetrix and Incyte? Shoot them.

"The Changing American Family" sounds Californian? I dunno about that, it kinda just sounds dumb. University dumb, but dumb. And boring. They oughta invite the kid who runs the Radio Shack in my neighborhood as Guest Speaker. He was a guy last year, and is a passable chick this year. A very tall chick, but a chick all the same. And he/she would likely fool someone who didn't know him/her last year.

Umm, they're debating same sex marriage? They ought to just pair off in class and perform some same sex marriages. That would be really Californicated, and it might have the ancillary advantage of inciting the Taliban to target USC. A twofer.
