simons signed by simons?

Being a Simon myself, thought it was cool that Holly found the Simon charity auction on eBay, with, yes, famous people called Simon signing the classic electronic toy Simon and then selling it for charity. Seems like there's a lot more demand for Duran Duran than American Idol, though, judging by bid prices.. weird.

Oh, and of course, after I raved about The New Tom Green Show, the second night was an unmitigated disaster. Marilyn Manson and his girlfriend sat around looking bored while Tom halfheartedly egged them on, then Andy Dick came out and looked very confused and somewhat chemically enhanced, then things pretty much deteriorated from there. Apparently, if Tom can get the right guests on, all is good, but.. ugh, tonight - trainwreck. At least the filmed clips were good (particularly Tom going into the Louisiana backwoods, and doing car revving noises and dog barks with a crazed toothless local for no particular reason.)
