For the next week, as I baste and booze away memories of 2006 in Miami, I am going to use this space to look back at the best of writing Andy's Blog. I started on January 3rd of 2006 and it's run the gamut from a creative blast to a pain in the ass. (Is that a rhyme?) Today I am reprinting two early blogs that got a lot of attention but, since they both came early in this blog's life, you may have missed. The first one is about my girl Oprah and the second is about a pitch meeting like no other with Cybil Shepard. These two gems are my Chrismukkah presents to you all!

BUT WAIT -- as an added Kwanzaa bonus, I am throwing in a random blog from September that I wrote early in the morning on my Blackberry that conveyed my moment perfectly, and made me a happy blogger.

I LIED TO OPRAH
Originally blogged January 29, 2006

Last Thursday's James Frey episode of "Oprah" is idling in my DVR. I am too terrified to watch it. I am scared; I don't want to see "mad" Oprah. I can't handle her being mad at anyone. I think it's because she's been mad at me. I want her to love me so bad, but I have screwed up one too many times.


I have been a heavy viewer of "The Oprah Winfrey Show" since year 2 of the series, 1987. I could -- and will someday – take a sabbatical and write a detailed analysis about how I think she's evolved, how the show has changed, and how for all of the crap that's thrown around about idol worship and her deified persona, she's done so much good that people should shut their faces with their negative Oprah energy. She is so good and her show is so good.

But I've struck out three times with her. My personal karma with Oprah stinks. And I have to live with that.
