No. You didnt mention JHo ripping off the Pink Diamond Ring she has flaunted in our faces all these months. That's the coup de grace for me. Ironic since Ben has found other pink dont you think? The whole thing was very symbolic. I can feel Matt Damon's huge sigh of relief all the way over here. The witch is dead.

I think you can't reach the lower parts of your legs and have no idea what your feet look like anymore.

First I love the image that the words "mid flounce" create in my mind. Second I don't think I have ever seen someone referred to as lantern jawed twice in one article before. Third, I'm shocked. SHOCKED that it is over. I should send flowers. :eek2:

Nope.

My mother has comcast so I checked into their offerings. Their dvr is in beta this summer, so they should roll it out in a few months.

PeopleNews is my favorite gossip site. Their quotes are always jacked -- a couple of days ago they quoted Beyonce lamenting her inability to fry "chips" -- but their information is good and snarky.

They always refer to Ben as lantern-jawed as many times as they can in each article.

So how do they refer to Jay Leno?

Phew!

The Track article didn't have the juicy details that People News had. I guess this means will be seeing Ben again in The People's Republik.

Link to today's Boston Herald article.
What was Tara Reid doing there?

Edited to add link.

I've had it up to here (waving arm over head) with all this talk about how women are so mean. Frankly, I don't see it. Most women I know are real sweethearts. Friendly, supportive, kind etc. I don't see cattiness among my friends and although the occasional bitchy remark might come out, it's not as if it's undeserved in the circumstances and it really doesn't happen too often. We are not particularly nice people (i.e. not nicer than average) - I just think our behavior is pretty normal and that women are not these chronically catty creatures people here seem to be making them out to be.

Nah -- I thought it might seem like I was trying to sound hoity toity. (I will admit, however, that it was the reason I finally relented when my husband suggested we buy the monstrosity...)

We definitely need 4-wheel drive with the snow. It doesn't need to be this particular model of course, but everyone in the area has a 4WD car.

I think the Expedition is the F-series pickup, just with seats and stuff instead of the open area part (the name of which is escaping me now) on a pickup. (Flatbed? I don't think that's right... Help!)

My friends are my friends because they aren't catty. The cattiness I experience isn't among my friends, it is among people I don't like and/or don't know well, and it comes from rank jealousy.

No, not all women are mean or catty, some are. Same with men though. It just so happens that the reality dress shows that women do are extremely catty. I saw one not too long ago on BBC America and I had to turn it off they were so mean to the woman.

It is starting to stink in here.

With that demeaning attitude, you should fit right in for the upcoming hotornot.com-esque boob--o--rama.

If you are talking about What not to Wear, I don't think those two are catty. In fact, I think what you are calling catty is a difference between how British women interact and how American women interact. British women (at least in my family), do not shrink from criticism and are not gushy. A lot of jokes go on at other people's expense. But it is meant in the spirit of helpfulness, not meanness or jealousy.
