For fans of CABIN BOY, please be aware that there are currently two DVDs
available containing eight episodes of the brilliant but weird-ass Chris
Elliot sit-com, GET A LIFE.

The episodes available include several classics:  the one where his
submarine arrives in the mail, "Zoo Animals on Wheels" where he in in the
community theater show (funnier than WAITING FOR GUFFMAN?), the parody of ET
where he encounters a non-cuddly alien named "Spewy," and the one where he
falls in love with a  model, courts hern, marries, has an affair, goes to
counseling and then gets divorced -- all in one day.

Yes, when I'm not reading difficult post-modern fiction, I improve my brain
THIS way.
