This weekly column needs a title. Last week it was the terminally lame “Week in Review”. This week I’m trying out “Social Sunday”, because it’s a collection of things I might have posted on social media, had I not abandoned social media. Maybe I should run a contest. Send me suggestions, and if I use one I’ll come up with a prize and mail it to you.
Anderson Cooper is auditioning guest co-hosts for his daytime talk show, so today I’m shooting a video to submit. Since he’s a huge Breaking Bad fan, we’ll be on location at a place that will be very recognizable to fans. I have no illusions about my chances, but at the very least it’s some more practice in front of the camera.
