Nintendo Announces Super Mario Run For iOS. I guess this is a big deal, I'm not even sure anymore. Nintendo has held out on releasing games for phones to help protect their Nintendo 3DS empire. I guess they feel they've finally hit the tipping point where the money they can conceivably gain in the mobile app market will offset any losses to the 3DS. They also made a second announcement saying Mario was coming to android sometime later. I'm sure Windows Phone will be shortly after that....

The Tale Of A Dashed TV Pilot Dream And What It Can Teach You About Life. This is a really great long form article about what it's like trying to break into Hollywood as a screenwriter, a contest winning screenwriter at that. If you want the TL/DR version, it's hard, seemingly impossible. Sounds like actual writing talent is nowhere near as important as the right combination of timing, luck and connections.
Roastmaster Jeff Ross: The Roast Was Edited To Make Ann Coulter Look as Best We Could. I watched a few minutes of this last night and ouch, Ann Coulter did not look good. Then again neither did Jeff Ross, man that guy has aged like 30 years in the last 10. He's like the reverse Benjamin Button.
The worst part about the whole thing is that I'm sure this all helps Ann Coulter's cause. She gets to yammer on and on about the liberal media and her supporters will just eat it up. If there's anything I've learned about Politics it's that the phrase "liberal media" is like cat nip to conservatives. Slightly ironic that the people that yell the loudest about it have high rated TV shows on cable.
Oh yeah one more thing about the roast. Good thing Ann Coulter was there otherwise everyone would be talking about how badly Ralph Macchio bombed. Woof.
