America's Next Top Automotive Journalist

I am a fan of television producer Chuck Lorre. He’s the man who’s created shows like The Drew Carey Show, Dharma & Greg, and the brilliant Two and a Half Men.

After each one of his shows’ ending credits, Lorre’s talent is set apart by his vanity cards – those 0ne-second title screens you see after a show’s credits. Where most vanity cards may only say the name of the production company, Chuck Lorre plasters an entire essay on his vanity cards. Before the advent of the DVR, it was impossible to gather even the slightest gist of what those cards said.

Now, with the beauty of the “pause”  button, Chuck Lorre’s brilliant writing outside of the teleplay can be enjoyed.

But there are some vanity cards he posts with the “I Have Nothing to Write” title, which goes into an explanation of how time limitations in his personal or professional life have caused him to use his recycled vanity card.

I always get pissed off at seeing those. It’s such a letdown to think you’re about to read something great only to be let down by the recycled card.

The way I see it, he should just write at least a few words, rather than let his audience down.

So then why am I posting an “I Have Nothing to Write About” post? Ironically it’s because I have something to write about, but the subject matter is as good as nothing. Technorati sent me an email today saying they have finally granted me a claim code for my blogs - thanks a lot – that only took about three months … sheesh.

Short of that technical tidbit and commenting on the only problem I have with one of the world’s greatest television producers, I have nothing to write.

Here’s a Technorati claim code for your enjoyment!
