ETA my hairdresser is kind of odd. He's straight, which in and of itself is not odd, but he acts very gay. Except for when he is talking to Mrs. Eaze. For a while he kept hugging her, which she isn't into. Then he was telling her to watch these very strange spiritual movies. Then he was telling her how unhappy he was in his marriage and that he wished he could leave and live in a hut in the mountains. Then his wife had twins and he shut up.

He's good at cutting hair though and we don't have that many choices around here.
For want of a hairpin the Empire was lost.

Okay, new topic: a woman here at the office has seemed to have dropped something in the vicinity of, I don't know, 70 or 100 pounds. She's looking awesome. I hadn't seen her for maybe 2 months and then saw her in the hall, and i couldn't help but compliment her. Just said she's looking fantastic, that sort of thing. Was that intrusive or inappropriate?
Not at all. A person who was worked so hard would probably be disappointed if noone seemed to notice, and you complimented her in a nice, neutral way. Good for her, by the way. I bitch and moan when I need to drop 3 lbs, and take forever to do so. I can't even imagine having to make that kind of a lifestyle change.

OK - so other people have posted of their celeb run-ins - here's one of mine. I sat next to Cleavon Little at an Easter brunch at Jerry's Deli on Ventura Blvd during my sr year of college. And he hit on me! (I must be hottttttt! Or, at least I must have been then.) It took every bit of strength I had not to ask if it was twue what they say . . .

My predictive powers with respect to that show continue to suck, but I am happy with the result. I dislike the winner AND I dislike Supernova, so Win Win. I have been relieved of any obligation to ever attend a Supernova concert and I couldn't be happier.

The only person who changed my mind during the course of the show is Toby. I thought he was a frat boy with no stage presence at the beginning of the show and by the end he was out-Brandoning on Killers songs. Good job.

I'm not sure I can watch another season of this show if they do it again. The shameless self promotion by the band and the sickening kumbayah shit when people were sent home were nearly impossible to bear. I had less of a problem with it during the INXS show because I actually liked INXS in their day and it was cool to hear their (old) stuff promoted to a new generation of kids.
It's a good thing we didn't have any money on it this time. I don't think I would have planned for us both losing.
My husband predicted Pepe before the show started. He said he does the best at singing their crappy originals. Who writes that crap? Toby's original was great and I really really liked Magni's original. But then I like rock. Tommy Lee is high. And I was never a huge Crüe fan. Although I think in a moment of weakness I bought Dr. Feelgood.

Anyway, when they booted Toby, first, that was it. I knew they had lost their freaking minds. I still don't know who Pepe's fan base is?

I really like INXS and Michael Hutchins and over time really started to like JD Fortune. I don't see how they're going to be able to repeat the show next year.

And yes, think of all the money we'll save not buying songs or tickets.

I don't watch the Sopranos, so I don't know. But I doubt it. He is not gay, so that is a strike right there, I bet. He's in his early/mid- 20's, spiky product-heavy brown hair, lip ring, rocker look. He would have fit right in with Toby's look on Rock Star last night, if that helps.

Or maybe about how they hear much worse from idiot male customers who mistake their cheerful use of flair as an invitation for sex.

Is it her hairy beaver or just random hairy beaver?
Because 1 is just creepy while the other is off-the-charts.

Sheesh -- what's the big deal? You are paying her a compliment. Why are you worried -- you think maybe she doesn't realize that she was fat before?

She worked hard to dump the weight. She may well think that she has more to go, and hearing a compliment about how she looks will make her feel good.

Supernova sucks (okay, this Supernova sucks; the SF (I think) band that's been using that name for years is, apparently, not bad). Only reason to go to a show would be to see Storm play with the House Band, and then leave before Pornsuave came on.

Has anybody heard Panic Channel? Despite my love of Jane's, I have a hard time taking Navarro seriously.
OK, your powers are amazing. Are you happy now?

Panic channel is OK, I'm not sure I like the lead singer. He sounds like someone, but I can't put my finger on it.

For me it's "dude, that was dope." Dope? Really? It was dope? Like 10 years ago dope? Or like furshizzle?

Two new questions of burning import
 
1. How many people is it acceptable to date simultaneously?

2. Does anyone give a perfection opinion for another state (in which you don't practice)? I got some kooky language that I don't think works and would be meaningless, in any event, once I get done qualifying it.

1. It depends on the individual, you slut. If you're going to date more than 4 simultaneously, though, you should rent a stretch limo.

2. No, but I'd be happy to sue or defend someone over it when it's done.
