'Bonnie Hunt,' poop scooping, old lesbians

 

Who knew that Emmy-winning actor Tony Shalhoub was so much like his OCD detective on "Monk" in real life?

Apparently he's so germophobic that he doesn't like to touch menus in restaurants, he said today on our formerly favorite lunchtime chat fest, "The Bonnie Hunt Show." And then Shalhoub demonstrated his brother Dan's invention that makes curbing your dog a little less, well, vile.

It's "The Sha-Poopie!" No bending, touching or wiping required! (The folks over at "American Inventor" weren't too keen on it, so bro could use the plug on national TV).

And boy did we need a palate cleanser after that, and it was provided in the form of late-night talker and eight-time Emmy-nominated writer Spike Feresten, who guided us to this Web site for a compendium of Men Who Look Like Old Lesbians. He's on there, too! (So's Bruce Jenner and Minnesota's Senator-elect Al Franken!)

Oh, the high-larity.
