This is priceless television/theater, exhumed from the CBS archives for the first time in, what? decades? because of the new play on Mengers’ life, Ill Eat You Last.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://erikmaza.tumblr.com/post/45198445895</link><guid>http://erikmaza.tumblr.com/post/45198445895</guid><pubDate>Tue, 12 Mar 2013 13:33:00 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Somewhere along the way, Architectural Digest became the...</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/9ee9aa6533722fc99d313dd488f72750/tumblr_mjk5fzKz621qz82c2o1_500.png"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Somewhere along the way, Architectural Digest became the official organ for old gays to show off their homes: March 2013 (Elton &amp; David Furnish), Nov ‘12 (Nate Berkus), Oct ‘12.

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It was the second day of the last year of his mayoralty, and Mike Bloomberg was in a mood. He had spent a portion of New Year’s Day watching Hugh Jackman, Anne Hathaway, and Amanda Seyfried battling injustice in the streets of Paris. By early afternoon on January 2, he still was kvetching about his night at the movies.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“Listen,” he said. “I sat through an hour of trailers, and every one was stupider than the other. And then there were these ads for video games—for adults! And you want to know why we’re dumbing down politics.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Look at this guy. Mr. Potter from Its a Wonderful Life incarnate. But, in a way, he’s just like us plebes. Sometimes he also has to take his girlfriend to shitty chick flicks.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://erikmaza.tumblr.com/post/44809403470</link><guid>http://erikmaza.tumblr.com/post/44809403470</guid><pubDate>Thu, 07 Mar 2013 17:06:00 -0500</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
