9:45 to 10 p.m.: Fell into black hole

"They're talking about Palm Springs on TV!" Debz yelled.

I walked into the living room and was immediately dismayed that the "they" in question was Kathy Griffin doing stand-up. Notice the use of "stand-up" instead of "stand-up comedy."

Her act recounted a recent trip to Palm Springs in which her two dogs shit all over her suite in the swankiest hotel in the valley. The audience laughed - hard - a phenomenon that can be attributed to only two possibilities: 1. They were paid handsomely to do so; or 2. Creative editing spliced in audiences attending shows of comedians who are actually funny.

Kathy Griffin, you owe me 15 minutes of my life back.
