“The Present Owner: M-Word. (My Trip to Morrissey’s House)” - THE FUTURE Magazine

Excerpt:

I don't own a cell phone. I never have. Talking on a phone is one of my least favorite things to do. And it's not often I find myself in an emergency where I need a phone. I have no need or want of a cell phone. Plus I'm slightly nauseated by the obsession with them. They're everywhere. The world is drunk on cell phones. What the fuck are you people all talking about? There is absolutely nothing I have to say to anyone that can't wait a couple hours ‘til I get home and can make a call on my “land line.” And besides my house catching on fire, or something of equally disastrous proportions, there is nothing anyone can say to me that is so important that it can't be left as a message on my answering machine. I will listen to the message and “I will get back to you as soon as I can,” as most people say on their outgoing message. Although, I do not say that on my outgoing message. But as I stood in the sunny cul de sac outside of Morrissey two-million-dollar house off of Sunset Blvd. waiting for his realtor to arrive to show us the house, I suddenly realized it was one of those rare instances I needed a cell phone. As a prop. I figured I might look better if I were on a cell phone. It would be more authentic. You know, like I was a hot shot Hollywood millionaire wheeling and dealing or whatever it is they do on their cell phones. “Hold on, lemme call you back. I have to look at this fucking mansion or something, God.” Because that's what I was supposed to be: a hot shot Hollywood millionaire interested in buying Morrissey's house.

Thomas Lennon goes from Dangle to ‘Balls’ to mainstream movies and back to absurd again

Excerpt:

...“Ben and I both write compulsively,” he says. In the works, the two have “Night at the Museum 2” and one other project, which may be more chal­lenging to keep within the mainstream.

“I have an outline in my head, like a ‘Mama Mia’-type musical, but with the music of Morrissey, called ‘I’ve Changed My Plea to Guilty,’” he says, complet­ely seriously. “It’s for a very diehard set of fans.”
