I’m going to see New Kids on the Block!

Last night, while I watched the season finale of True Blood (They better not have killed off my Lafayette!) and Stephen Colbert’s Christmas show (unfunny, unfunny, unfunny) I missed NKOTB performing on the American Music Awards.
Click the video if you want to watch it in High Quality. If you want the old (read: good) stuff, start at about 2:33 into the performance.
Donnie is hot. There, I said it.

The new holiday Gap ads are out, featuring stars in ensembles that would look completely garish on mere mortals, but hip and cute in the ads.
And this year I have reason to rejoice, because they feature the recipient of my very first fan letter, Jason Bateman.
Jason played “David,” the oldest brother on the sitcom Valerie, which was then called Valerie’s Family then the Hogan family after Valerie Harper quit the show. He was a handsome, roguish type, and in a scene from the opening of the show that forever remains burned in my brain, he played hockey. (Go here and forward to the :33 mark. Rawr!)
And now he’s 39 years old. And ohmigod….

…wow…
