"Big Brother 8," Sunday, July 29, 2007--Part I

OK, here's the deal: I DID watch "Big Brother 8" on Sunday, but I was away for the weekend visiting my childhood hometown of Hicksville (why are people not surprised when I say I grew up here?), Long Island, N.Y. (and Billy Joel, who also grew up there, is almost as famous as myself. Almost.) Anyway, I have to switch from "A New York State of Mind" to a "Big Brother State of Mind," and when I do, I'll be posting. So, stay tuned.
