So long Sparks. You tasted like shit, and you made my tongue orange, but i like to think you got me drunk and kept me up on the evenings when i resorted to drinking you. You were like a red bull and vodka for the youth. My 20s will never forget you....

oprah just signed a three year deal with hbo to create scripted programming, documentaries and more.
