December should be about mistletoe and dreidels, family and friends, giving and sharing, and a steady supply of good old holiday cheer. The season has its immutable rituals-looking for that perfect tree, basting that hormone-injected dinner bird, setting up lighted lawn decorations (in Springfield Fla. this week, one man put up a display of two reindeer getting it on, much to his neighbors' horror-but that's an exception), and frantic last-minute dashes to the mall for almost-forgotten gifts. Ah yes, Holiday Happiness is everywhere-everywhere, that is, except Hollywood, where the promise of even temporary...

In this haze of holiday cheer, I spent the four days catching up on my pop culture, but when it was all over, I felt a lingering discomfort in my stomach (maybe it was the butternut squash?). I felt like the wool had been pulled over my eyes-as if something wasn't quite right...

...wishing and hoping for puberty. The Backstreet Boys all have new dos including Nick Carter, who looks uncomfortable no matter what he's wearing... With all the poo-poo in theaters this season, I decided to go down the AFI's list of all-time best comedies to cheer me up. I randomly picked Bringing Up Baby, starring Katharine Hepburn, Cary Grant and a leopard. Without a doubt, one of the funniest, wittiest movies I've ever seen. It's an incredible date movie. You'll win over anybody you show it to... During Thanksgiving dinner, my grandmother tapped...
