Because the only thing that beats going crazy is going crazy with somebody else

Bunny, Bunny

Now that we've broken it in, it's time for the first non-introductory entry here.

It's December first. Bunny, Bunny.

What's with the rabbits, you ask? The answer's simple, if not short. I have been a great fan of Gilda Radner since I was in elementary school. Since then, nothing has changed. She was a remarkable woman and comedian, that fell completely into any role she made for herself on Saturday Night Live. She was also the very first person cast on the show. Lorne Michaels knew what he was looking for, and Gilda had it.

In October, I came across a book about her, with fond stories from people that knew her best. One interesting thing about Gilda was that on the first day of every month, she would say "Bunny, Bunny" out loud, for good luck. Her dreams came true in a lot of ways, so I'm not about to knock it.

Okay. Enough sentimental stuff. But I did want to share that.
