Sorry folks, we’ve been busy and neglectful.  But the good news is that we have news!

How’s this for awesome: Ellen DeGeneres receives this year’s Mark Twain prize, and Jane Lynch, et al, were on hand to pay their respects.  It airs on PBS on October 30, and you can catch a bunch of pretty great clips here.

• Questions with Jane Lynch [spoiler alert] via the Chicago Sun-Times
• A piece in the New York Post
•  Jane on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno; also: Russell Brand
• And, finally, a clip. You’re welcome.
