Idle time
I won't be posting anything for the next couple of weeks; with the season finale of State of the Union tonight, I don't expect any major news during this time.

Season Finale
Well, season 2 of State of the Union is coming to an end. Season 3 is being written now, although I don't know if Showtime has said they'll want to air it. I hope they do. So here is this week's preview clip from episode 7 and final of season 2. Here, a young and attractive substitute teacher lures a student to the supply closet. The student thinks he's going to get lucky, but things are not as they seem...

KCRW's Guest DJ
Well, Tracey's guest DJ podcast at KCRW has finally arrived. It's an 11+ minute sample of five songs she would pick to play. You can get the podcast at iTunes or directly from KCRW's site (you can read a transcript of her podcast as well).
And what did she pick to play? Let's see:
"That's the Way of the World" -- Earth, Wind and Fire
"A New England" -- Kirsty MacColl
"My Way" -- Sid Vicious
"One Leg Too Few" -- Peter Cook and Dudley Moore (a classic comedy sketch)
"America the Beautiful" -- Ray Charles
Listen to the podcast or read the transcript to find out why she picked them. She had great reasons. Four of the five were great picks, but I'm sorry, there is just no way I can support Sid Vicious's "rendition" of "My Way".

Tracey is a coin tosser
Yes, we must put in that clarification lest we be misunderstood...
The Brisbane Times reports that Tracey will toss the coin at the start of the annual Twenty20 cricket match for the Hollywood Ashes, played between teams of actors from the UK and Australia. The UK won the inaugural match last year, and the Aussies are seeking revenge.
