Hello, icon!Joey. At least you're still here with me. *hugs*

Whoa, wait. Keith and Joey are AWOL?

That kind of destroys the instafic I was writing... I thought Keith was out because he screwed up his foot more (since he's been out and about a lot, I hear) and I was doing a wee PRT bit with everyone giving Keith crap about it... *sadface*

Also, Joey's out all week?! Dan Abrams, you're a cutie, but... but... I love mah Joey. *grabby hands*

Oh, and this Monica chick that filled in for Keith? I hate her! She has no comedic timing and no snark which, I'm sorry folks, but if you're gonna fill in on Countdown you must have timing and snark on your side. Seriously, where the hell was Allison? We love Allison in my household. Allison is funny, snarky, sexy, and awesome. I miss her! She should be the official substitute for Keith.

PS:
Mum: *shuts off Dan Abrams* I can't watch him! He's such a woman! Did you hear him giggle? He's annoying!
Luce: You can't watch Abrams, but you'll watch Andy?
Mum: No, see, David or Dan or whatever the fuck his name is- he's feminine. Anderson is more... asexual.
Luce: Anderson Hays Cooper is not asexual, Mum!
Mum: Well, he's not masculine, but he's not a girl...
Luce: That's not asexual, that's androgynous!
Mum: Eh, tomato, tomahto.
[...]
Luce: I love it. Keith gets filled in by a conservative-esque reporter and Joey gets a liberal Jew.
Mum: Whose almost flaming.

I miss Keith too, which is why I watched the Red Sox/Yankees game instead. You know, like him.

Allison Stewart left MSNBC for NPR. Pretty good excuse.

And Monica Novotny has been Keith's reporter/occasional sidekick since Countdown began. She's been away on maternity leave for what seems like forever now. The lady holds her own with Keith, so don't sell her short. Tonight was her first night in the Big Chair.

hah, my mom and i were discussing anderson cooper's sexuality today, a carry over from a conversation we were having all last week (first she asked if he was gay, then she asked if i was his new girl friend, then she asked if him and jeff corwin were making gay love babies in the rainforest)

Aw, really? I kinda liked Monica! I agree with the above poster that she's a damn sight better than Amy Rohrbach. (Bleurgh.)

Hey, wait, if we count up all the vacation days that Jon Stewart and Colbert take, they've GOT to be more than what Keith does! Plus, Keith does an hour 5 nights a week solo, and they do HALF an hour, FOUR nights a week, with filmed bits by other people, AND they take off for one or two weeks at a time!

I bet it all adds up.

I bet Keith gets to take off for sports stuff because he can claim it's for his ESPN work. Keep that foot elevated, tall man.
