My Apartment @2:31 am
Midnight Movie—“After Hours, Part II”
It's really after dark tonight, I'm still at work and it's almost 2:00 am. Tonight is midnight movie night, even though it's long after midnight. Let's go home and then I'll tell you what's going on.
Finally, I'm out of work. It's a little after two...
I got a few hours of overtime tonight, so I'll be fucked if I'm walking home. Taxi!
And here we go, before you know it, it'll be show time.
Last week we watched the first half of the movie, “After Hours,” and I said it would be continued tonight. Okay, I told you then how in the first Midnight Movie I cut large chunks out and still made it work. I'm so tired, I'm going to do that tonight. Last week gave you a good set-up, so I'll try not to cut out any key parts, but still keep it short enough so I don't fall asleep in the middle of putting it together. Okay, now it’s time to say: “Roll ‘em (and whoever just pulled out rolling papers, I hope you have enough for all of us)!”
I told you it was going to be quick!
Sorry about today’s post, but as I’ve said before, that’s the beauty of MAD, every once in a while I can just take it easy. So, sorry today’s post was a bit of a gyp, but tomorrow’s post will be epic. I’m going to a screening of a movie and I have a great interview with a woman who is the writer and director of the film. She’s acted in films and TV with actors as diverse as Alec Baldwin, Gena Rowlands, Kiefer Sutherland, Dennis Hopper and Matt Dillon. So who is this mystery guest being interviewed at MAD? I’ll never tell, you’ll have to tune in tomorrow and it’ll be an epic post to make up for this turkey. And as opposed to most nights where I go out and do something, come home and go to sleep and post it around noon the next day, this one is being posted in real time, because I’ll probably sleep the whole day away tomorrow. So tonight when I say, goodnight everybody, I really mean it! See you tomorrow after dark.

Bonus Video Supplied By Gidget!
"The Patty Duke Show" came up in yesterday's comments and I said I couldn't remember the hot dog thing. Well, the coolest DJ in the world, Gidget, sent in this video and it explains it all. "A hot dog drives her wild!" And why shouldn't it? Thanks Gidget! and don't forget to tune in to Woody Radio for the Secret Weapon show from 10am to 5pm! "Boris" picks the tunes and Gidget interlaces movie lines. The best show on radio! Now Check out the video.

That's my kinda post! Who sassin' jive turkey!? I missed yesterday's post but I've drank out of that fridge! Love it.
I met Billy fucking Connelley yesterday! He's a champ.
Teri Garr, what can I say, except gorgeous. @Gidget: I have not seen this Patty Duke intro in so many years, wow, what a flashback. Great song here by the Pretenders, Chrissy was and is a true rock woman and she continued with the band despite losing two out of the three original members to drugs.
@AL: Agree Teri Garr was a hottie. In Young Frankenstein - WOW!
"Put ...The Candle Back"
Terri Garr..."Vant to take a rrrroll in ze hay...Ist gut! A rrrrolll in ze hay?' Ha!
Mystery guest? Do tell, do tell. Brittany Murphy never told.
Well the movie is in my queue, so I'll let ya pass on the short post since I'll be watching it.
Sounds exciting tonight, hope you have fun!
None of my exes gave me a pass on my short post.
Have fun Marty.
Well @cp then you obviously had mean exes or you need to work on your motion in the ocean ;)
@Clacky of Bunt's Down Under: You did indeed drink out of the fridge! Your New York baptism! What's the Billy Connelley story? Maybe you should blog about it at Bunt's.
@Al, Terry and Jaws: I'm a major Teri Garr fan as well!
@cp: All will be told tomorrow, I'm no Brittany Murphy!
@kari: Thanks for the pass!
In total agreement with Al, Terry, Jaws and MAD: Teri Garr rules! Maybe you can do Mr. Mom in the future? I love that shot of her asking "Do you like the Monkees!" Makes up for the short post! Hey, is she the guest star tomorrow?
Thank you Marty for the pimp:)
Wow that pretenders song is one of my fave covers ever.. she really took it over and owned it...makes you forget the Kinks ever existed... or was that her plan all along....
Funny story. I used to take the cigarette girls to San Jose to work at a really cool gay bar called St Johns.
they had a piano bar there
whenever I came to the bar the Piano player always sang the patty duke theme to me. as a anti gidget kind joke really LOL.. mixing up the two shows. he would write new lyrics to each each time and they were crude lewd and perfect...
On the day my cousin married her baby daddy at the park with a potluck/ softball game wedding i had another wedding to attend that night at st johns. and one of the two grooms was with me at my cousins wedding as he was my cousin's baby daddy's cousin.. small world.
that night Danny married his life partner.. (well commitment ceremony as it wasn't legal )
and this happened at St Johns Gay bar with the piano player doing the tunage.. sooo awesome!!!
once again hot dogs are perfect food for losing control!
wow...everybody is postin' way over my head...gosh i know i'm a little slow...never viewed pduke saw a pdiddy video once...
way off topic but did you all see charlie sheen's advice to l lohan? classic...
now way way of topic...got my "new" 365 mug to replace my "old" 365 mug (which i still have not found...damn there is only five little rooms...)...and my new dj gidget shirt...it was only sent three times...it's a classic...damn nice work boris...everyone should get one...gonna grab a "jaws" shirt next...

Sleep - the most beautiful experience in life - except drink.

@Barfly: I'll put Mr. Mom on the list! And no the guest star tomorrow is not Teri Garr, but I don't think you'll be disappointed.
@Gidgie: Happy to pimp a great show! Great story!
