You learn something new every day.

Today I learned that Adam West was in the first episode of "Bewitched". I also learned that my brain will immediately try to come up with a crossover idea when it sees Adam West on "Bewitched". Stupid brain.

EDIT: ... the fuck? CBS will apologize for Boobgate and Andre 2000's Grammy costume but not for keeping Hack on the air? Okay, it's officially time to stop watching television.

SON OF EDIT: Hey! Why didn't anybody tell me Mayor Gavin Newsom was cute?! All of you should consider yourself severely reprimanded. Or at the very least, glared at in an exceedingly cute manner.

Here's another wacky detail for you ... Long ago, before either the original Star Trek or Batman TV series, a never-bought (thankfully!) pilot was made for an historical TV series, called "Alexander the Great."

Alexander was ... William Shatner.

"Cleitus" (read Hephaistion) was ... Adam West.

LOL! Actually, Shatner made a suprisingly (or not-so-surprisingly) good Alexander ... better (imo) than Richard Burton had earlier, in the big MGM epic. (Burton's first starring role.) The *history* in the pilot stunk to high heaven, but Shatner was a very convincing Alexander. Of course, later, he played Kirk as "Alexander-in-Space" anyway, so ....

The mayor of San Francisco. They were interviewing him on CNN about the gay marriages thing. He's kind of hot in an elected-official sort of way.

Re: Newcom - distubing, ain't it. I just saw him for the first time on TV this evening, and boy oh boy did he ping. Our first Metrosexual Mayor.

OH MAN. During SF's mayoral runoff elections I watched the news so attentively; Newson is so pretty.
