God I hate him. The modified mullet, the botox, the look on his face, the nasty smooth girlbody. BUt I love the attributed quote. Like he is one of the great thinkers of our time with that deep thought.

Anyone watch this show regularly? I saw it for the first time Monday night and it was hysterical. Freddie Prinze Jr. and Chris Klien were guests. They did a Scooby Doo ripoff at the end where audience members had to guess their mates from a werewolf, a mummy and a frankenstien that was hilarious. Just wondering if I should add it to Tivo or if it was a fluke.

Oh I'm sorry...

I should have included that once back on the plane, we did it under one of those airplane blankets...

My bad.

Fa la la.

Nice totally gratuitous "I have a girlfriend" post the day after the breakfast meats poem. You wound me.

...jewelry shows ... And the call-in testimonials are priceless.

Oh, man, I remember watching ... whozit, the guy who designed the clothes on Dynasty ... selling his jewelry line one insomnia-plagued night. The stuff was probably a notch or two over the usual in that, while it still looked like mall rhinestone crap, it occasionally was vaguely creative or even, dare I say, sort of pretty in design.

But anyway, the call-in testimonials just had me dying - in a good way. All these little old church organists from Dustwad Oklahoma calling up talking about how they have one of his pins and every Sunday at services for the local nursing home just EVERYONE compliments her on it. These women sounded just like my grandmother talking about how she'd gotten so many compliments on some earrings she got from Avon in the '50s, or how everyone admired some friend's scarf with birds on it, or how some 85 y.o. lady down the road knew just how to pick out shoes to flatter her ankles.

And the guy (Nolan Miller! I knew I'd remember) was just so sweet to them, talking about how wonderful their story was, and how nice he had helped them feel special, and how everyone should have a little bit of glamor in their lives, and how much he enjoyed hearing from them. He talked not at all about the stuff he was selling, just about the callers' experiences and how and where they liked to wear things, etc. He reminded me of an old HS friend who just loved old people and knew just how to talk to them without the usual generational weirdness and make them feel happy. And, unlike the usual presenters I've seen on those things, he seemed really sincere.

Anyhow, I actually found the whole thing to be surprisingly charming.

Don't get me wrong, he comes off as a tool on the websites, but I'm guessing that the tv schpeil is necessary to build the pure hatred that has been displayed here today.

Total drive by posting, wasn't it? He was actually the first on my list to replace Coltrane as my cyber crush, but I got hit hard by an earlier reference that might have been one worse than gf. Something really wretched like "SO"> I feel you. And Atticus, who I dont fancy as much as everyone else, is married. What else is there (pushy!!!)? Shape was like one of our only funny single men.

Tell me I'm hallucinating again.

Shocking, is it not? He's quite fallen off his game, I'm afraid. In fact, I think an imposter may have hijacked the computer of the Atticus we know (and, in my case, love.)

Bite your fingers! I refuse to believe it was anything but intentional.

Honey, she was the dork on the "Square Pegs." She never grew out of it. In SATC she was just a well-manicured and bleach-jobbed dork in couture. What did you expect from her?

This is a standard alcohol/health article (moderate drinking okay, heavy drinking not okay). What caught my attention is this:

"People who drank small amounts of alcohol on a regular basis had the smallest abdominal heights, while those who indulged in binge drinking of three or four drinks on one occasion had the highest measures."

When the hell did 3 or 4 drinks become binge drinking?

(spree: binge drinking - it's not just for breakfast anymore)

I deleted the image. That was cruel. But doesn't it look like his head was pasted onto his body in that picture? He is a scary-fugly nutknuckle. Nutknuckle is my new favorite word thanks to the Joe Schmo Show.

OK Court ruling blocking implementation of federal do not call list. Not to provoke another (god forbid) legal discussion here, but is there any possibility that only the Okies will be affected by this ruling? Should I have gotten on the TX list too when I signed up for federal?

I'll admit, I have lost sleep worrying about all of those telemarketers losing their parasitic jobs.

My favorite Newleywed's moment on last nights episode is vaguely reminiscent of the tuna/chicken question.

Leah eating buffalo wings, to Jessica: Want one?

Jessica: No, I don't eat buffalo.

Leah: Ummm, it's chicken.

[They laugh at her]

Nick: Haven't you ever wondered why buffalo don't have wings?

Jessica: I've never thought about it...
