I am excited to say that I have one extremely exciting event to add to my calendar for next fall.
The Met is showing work from Robert Frank’s book/series The Americans from September 22–December 27, 2009.
This exhibition will celebrate the 50th anniversary of the publication of The Americans, Robert Frank’s elegiac suite of black-and-white photographs made on a cross-country road trip as a Guggenheim Fellow in 1955–56. The show will feature all 83 photographs published in the compact volume that became one of the medium’s most influential publications. In addition, the exhibition will include a full set of contact sheets, the artist’s earlier essays in sequencing photographs, and his later reuse of iconic images from the series.
I’m so excited for this. I’ve never seen his work on display and in person, so this should be really great. Also, after my recent road trip, I’m even more excited to look at images from the same kind of situation - photos of Americans from one coast to the other, but from one of my favorite photographers.

Lindsay Lohan: "I'm Taking Break From Sam to Focus on Myself" - E! Online
And here it is. Sigh. Lindsay doesn’t know what’s up.
"L Word" Co-Creators Michele Abbott and Kathy Greenberg Break Their Silence (AfterEllen.com)
How the characters of The L Word came to be. Call me a serious nerd, but this is so interesting.
AE: All the original cast members were. Can you share a memory you had with them during production?
MA: There was this amazing moment after a day of shooting, when we ended up in a karaoke bar in Vancouver. …
KG: Kate [Moennig], Leisha and Erin got up and started singing “What A Feeling” from Flashdance to Jennifer [Beals]. Jennifer was mortified at first, but then, like the good sport that she is, she grabbed a bottle of Perrier off a table, took the stage, dumped the water over herself and started dancing.
Can it just be known that I wish were were all just bffs?
Does anyone have a negative scanner I could use?
I would be endlessly appreciative.

Wanda Sykes gets her own "Late Night" (via After Ellen)
“Yes, my relationship with FOX hasn’t been the best, but if Rihanna can go back to Chris Brown, I can go back to FOX. Oprah tried to talk me out of it, but I think FOX has changed.”Despite it being on the worst network ever, I will watch this. I love me some Wanda Sykes.
