I am very disappointed that it's off the schedule. It's a fantastic show. I cannot imagine why people do not watch it.

You're in luck. 1Q 2004, sez the rumor mill.

Meanwhile, I will continue to post about "Slacker" until Linklater finally releases it on DVD. Twelve years and counting. I will demand extras.

Sorry if that was not clear. Fun is key to where I want to live, not what I want to do

Blame me. I watched the first episode b/c of the great reviews and I was just bored bored bored. I thought it tried way too hard to be clever and innovative. If I can see the effort, then it isn't working.

But then again, I'm really looking forward to The Next Joe Millionaire premiere tonight, so what do I know?

The first episode seemed promising but I have not watched it since. For me, the reason is that I have moved on from the network drama series. I never even think about them. It was a fluke that I even caught the premiere. The last network drama I watched regularly was ER when George Clooney was still on it.

I must not be their target demographic. Sorry, e/o.

I thought it was pretty well accepted that Jamie Lee Curtis has Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome, or AIS. If she did in fact have AIS, she would be genetically male and (outwardly) phenotypically female, with a vagina but no uterus or ovaries (and no penis either). Women with androgen insensitivity syndrome are usually slender, with narrow hips and large breasts, well-defined facial features and clear, smooth skin.

I would like to live somewhere fun, where people walk around and dont alwayus drive. This could be a resort town or a big city. But fun is the key. Also, I woudl not like to work for anyone who yells. And I dont want to work many weekends if at all. If anyone knows of anything, please pm me!

Have you checked with the rest of you to make sure everyone is on board with this lives-altering change?

Another late '80s, early '90s rapper is reportedly going to participate in The WB's The Surreal Life, along with a jailed televangelist's ex-wife and gay icon. Vanilla Ice and Tammy Faye Messner have both reportedly signed on for The Surreal Life 2, the New York Post reports. Vanilla Ice, a.k.a. Rob Van Winkle, once trashed the set of an MTV show that was retiring his video for "Ice Ice Baby," and "descended into a drug-fueled suicide attempt five years" before that, according to an AP story. After divorcing televangelist Jim Bakker when he went to jail, Tammy Faye went on to host a talk show with Jim J. Bullock, and has become "an unlikely icon for the gay community."
(from realityblurred.com)

This is a very stupid article. Vanilla Ice "trashed" the MTV set in jest, with gleeful help from Chris Kattan and the others. It was all done in good humor in the spirit of the show -- the 25 Worst Videos of All Time. I'm sure that I am mainly correct in this. That said, I'll probably end up watching this fucking thing.

More reality TV thoughts: I am openly rooting for the Morgan tribe at this point, mostly because I hate Johnny Fairplay so much, and Morgan is such an underdog. I was glad to see the hot-mortician beat up the not-hot Sandra. Contrary to what a prior post stated, Sandra did not lose the competition for Drake because she was unable to eat the sardine -- she lost because she was slower than Darrah. And yes, Michelle is an idiot who has noone to blame but herself.

Snopes considers it undetermined.

If what you say is true, I hope it's contagious.

For a more agnostic view of JLC=XY, see Snopes.

So every stripper and most porn stars have androgen insentivity syndrome?

Don't hate the playas', hate the game.

Uh no. Did you see that show? They were all terrified when he started swinging the bat around. Jennine Garafolo has since been interviewed on the topic saying that none of them had any idea he was going to freak like that. Of course, hindsight being what it is, they seem to agree that it was not a good idea to ask the guy to destroy his only hit video with a bat during a lamest videos ever show. But he was ballistic.

Actually, that's what it started out as. Then he lost his fucking mind. Stewart, Garrofolo (sp?) and Kattan moved away from him and watched him lose it. Then on one of the "funniest moments on MTV" shows, they asked them all about it and they said they were scared for their lives because it wasn't planned and he was letting out some serious anger. But they really did think he lost his mind and didn't know what he was going to do next. I saw it and tend to agree. They're all huddling in a corner while he goes ape shit.

I didn't say she'd admitted it.

Edited to add: the Snopes article also deals only with intersexuality, not AIS. If I'm remembering right (I can check if you want), AIS girls' outward appearance gives no indication that their genetic makeup doesn't match the outward appearance. Most don't discover the AIS until they don't start menstruating at the usual age.
