Are you as excited as you should be? Probably not.

Still, it’s been a good long while and I really want to see what kind of backstage shenanigans went down when Kathy co-hosted the New Year’s Eve special on CNN with Anderson Cooper. I am pretty sure cameras were rolling.

Moving on… here’s a clip from the show. Watch it. Or don’t — I won’t lose sleep.

I know you were worried.

In case you hadn’t noticed, we’re on a bit of a roll with the giveaways. I’m basically just like Oprah. Except white. And comparatively poor.

I just wanted to give you guys a chance to wrap your heads around all the free goodness that you can access just by sending a simple e-mail. By entering, you’ll make a lot of publicists happy, you’ll make me feel special by making me feel popular and you might even get some fun prizes.

Not entering won’t make you a bad person, but entering will make you a good, more virtuous and compassionate person. Just saying.

So, here’s a run-down of our giveaways:

• Cristin broke her radio silence recently to plug the premiere of My Boys, which debuts tomorrow at 9:30 on TBS. Its lead-in is The Bill Engvall Show, so you can watch that to whet your appetite. So, if you e-mail tifaux -at- gmail -dot- com with the subject line “Home Run,” you can win season one of Bill Engvall as well as My Boys goodies.
• Do you like comedy? Do you like enormous piles of weed? Well, we’ve got the contest for you. If you e-mail tifaux -at- gmail -dot- com with the subject line “My Lips Taste Like Purple,” you’ll be entered in a drawing to win Comedy Central’s Home Grown DVD, which features all sorts of stoner-oriented comedy. It’s kind of shamelessly marketed to the historically neglected pothead demographic. Go marijuana!
• Finally, lesbians ahoy! E-mail us at tifaux -at- gmail -dot- com with the subject line “Jackie Warner is the new Jane Fonda” and we’ll send you her new crazy workout DVD. So you can see Agostina’s psychotically toned abs and watch Rebecca as she tries to smile through the pain of doing her 30th set of push-ups.

Are you guys all set? The contest will end soon, so e-mail. E-mail like the wind!!!

If you’re interested, perhaps you are and perhaps you’re not, Battlestar Galactica’s Tricia Helfer is in the new video for alt-country group The Old 97s. She’s playing all fabulous and hard-to-get.
