America Held Hostage--By The Pollacks!
The seemingly endless decline of American journalistic standards will hit rock bottom on Thursday night, as my family is profiled as part of a feature about hipster parents--on ABC News Nightline.
Because I was a child-nerd, I grew up watching Nightline. I may have been the only nine-year-old in American who thought it was more fun to watch the Iran Hostage Crisis than go bike riding. Even if Ted Koppel is gone, I'm still really excited to be on Nightline.
In any case, set your TIVOs if you've got 'em, and try to treat me with kindness and objectivity. Remember, television puts on ten pounds, recedes your hairline by about an inch, and makes you automatically sound 30 percent stupider. Thanks in advance for your continued support. Go Suns!

Our long national nightmare is... No, wait. Wrong crisis.

I hope tehy treated you better than a friend in the Today Show's story today about Grupsters. She was told they were doing a story about parents who manage to maintain their personal style after having kids - and turned it into a piece slamming them.
