The Star Trek icon married his partner of 21 years, Brad Altman, on Sunday in a multicultural ceremony at the Japanese American National Museum that featured a Buddhist priest, Native American wedding bands, a Japanese Koto harp and a bagpipe procession.
They both wore white dinner jackets and black pants, and entered to the tune of "One Singular Sensation" from A Chorus Line, just to weed out anyone who was under the mistaken notion that they were attending a heterosexual event.

I implore you to watch this video until the end. It's not that long, and I promise you it's worth it.

Tina Fey is back on SNL ... as Sarah Palin.
OMG.
Can't stop laughing.
Genius, genius.
Thanks Rebecca! />...
Recreational activities I had planned to enjoy while in Seaside, Oregon:
1) Horseback riding
2) Kayaking
3) Jogging
4) Hot-tubbing
5) Laying on the beach
Things I have actually done while in Seaside, Oregon:
1) Shopping
This place is adorable, and it's like the boutique capital of the world. Plus: no sales tax. So I'm not actually being irresponsible by spending all this money on clothing I don't need; I'm being frugal by indulging my shopping addiction in a place with no sales tax. Like the same way it's okay to get so drunk you vomit all over your friends after they catch you in bed with their husbands, as long as you don't drive yourself home! And I am coming up on my first winter in the northwest -- it's only reasonable that I buy a ton of gorgeous, overpriced sweaters. This is totally okay. />Recreational activities I had planned to enjoy while in Seaside, Oregon:

Lindsay and Samantha may not have openly come out as a couple yet, but they're already issuing joint press releases, using the PR rep of choice among young Hollywood's elite: MySpace blogs.
They've taken time out of their busy schedules to remind people that you don't have to have, ya know, a Princeton education to realize that Sarah Palin's an idiot. Tutoring on the set of Disney films is really all it takes.
UH OH!
Current mood: shocked

On Wednesday, I made an obscure reference to Infinite Jest, which is probably the one and only time I've referenced the works of David Foster Wallace -- a literary hero of mine -- in the history of anything I've written ever.
On Friday, David Foster Wallace hung himself at his home in Claremont, California. He was 46.
Wallace is also the author of the brilliant Brief Interviews with Hideous Men, which was just made into a movie -- directed by John Krasinski.
You were the best, d...
My opinion, in general, was quite simple: NOT NAKED ENOUGH.
Honestly, though, between the Palin/Clinton sketch at the start and the Cathy bit on Weekend Update (if you find that bit on YouTube, PLEASE let me know), I hardly even noticed Phelpsy was there. Probably for the best.
I would have noticed him more if he were nakeder. And more in my bed. With his gold medals hanging around his neck and a pillow draped gently over the entirety of his face. And he would be silent except to occasio...
Brangie's Jolie-Pitt Foundation has made a $2 million donation to the Global Health Committee to establish a center to aid children affected by tuberculosis and HIV/AIDS in Ethiopia, which they're going to name after Zahara, having already named a Cambodian health clinic after Maddox.
"Our goal is to transfer the success we have had in Cambodia to Ethiopia where people are needlessly dying of tuberculosis, a curable disease, and HIV/AIDS, a treatable disease," Angelina said in a statement.
"It is our hope when Zaha...
Okay so I wanted to make this a "Caption This," but I just couldn't decide which photo to use. They're all so ill-advised. Why on Earth would she wear this outfit in public???
Here's Janet Jackson on tour with Nelly, performing in Oakland.

Ahhhhhhhh ha ha ha ha ha ha!
I'm totally just kidding.
Leaving Chateau Marmont on Saturday, with one of those guys who's not only cool enough to carry a pack of Parliaments, but has reached that elusive pinnacle of cool where you can carry a pack of Parliaments upside-down while showing your appreciation for the original distributors of tobacco by wearing a little piece of Pocahontas around your neck.

"They're going to talk about pigs, and they're going to talk about lipstick; they're going to talk about Paris Hilton, they're going to talk about Britney Spears. They will try to distort my record, and they will try to undermine your trust in what the Democrats intend to do."
Barack Obama, discussing the Republican strategy at a campaign stop in New Hampshire.
My Lord.
Now both parties have invoked the names of Paris Hilton and Britney Spears in formal campaign activities.
Wow. ...
