Meryl Streep has never played herself in a movie about her life. A biopic. That's next. And it will win so many oscars, and she will get to talk about herself and her craft at length. I can't wait.

And it's now been 28 years and counting. Wasn't it Kate Hepburn who went the longest between best actress accolades? 35 years (1933-1968)? Meryl's in good company if you look at it that way.

Bob Barker is the male equivalent to Betty White. Wholesome, all in good fun and a friend to animals. Shame on the douche that tried to make these clips into something dirty.

The video is incredible.
The amount of time it took to get that contraption to work must of been huge.
Thanks for the smile.

I miss the old pervy 70's. We need more Bob Barkers in the world!
