Its as if it has officially become socially unacceptable to have your life filmed on tv for a one in thirteen or is it sixteen chance for a mere half million bucks. It seems that at this point, it has become shameful to whore oneself on tv unless

1) it is a top notch Burnett project and

2)you are the first person in your family to have received a college degree or college degree plus

While one could see the tide was turning, like when Roddy the "writer" from New Jersey started banging or not banging Chiara the "marketing rep" (cold calls?, work from home?) ho from NYC, the genre is only really bottoming out. Here we hava a houseful of Eric Niew wannabes lifting weights and shaving their armpits while sporting sleeveless shirts to show off that de rigeur bicep tattoo that Pam Anderson invented. Its just so prole.

Now I cannot get through Amazing Race. I am sorry, I just cannot, as much as I try. Given the dollar prize and exciting and exotic travles, I would guess there are still a few token white collars playing, but really, I think that the Amazing Race too in destinted to end up in a lazy boy in rural Pennsylvania. Springer doesnt pay as well.

I really should have gotten that audition video together while reputaable Curtis types still played the game and I wouldnt be derailed from p-track. Thanks for playing, indeed.

OK, Salon, I will look for your coverage on this topic in about two weeks since you cannot invent anything.

You're not dead!
Holly Hollywood is as close as it comes to someone who's just in it for the fame and if she wins - bonus.

I think the problem is - don't you have to take the whole summer off from work? How many people are willing to flat out quit their job (it's not like it's waiting for you to come back). People with sucky jobs to begin with. And a cheesy half mill? If I'm quitting my job and eating peanut butter all summer, there had better be big money involved.

Something about collars. I think it's a fashion post.

On another note, I found out a short time ago that my friend's boyfriend (when we were all about 15) wanted to have a threesome with her and me. She never told me this at the time, and the threesome never materialized. He was hot! (and presumably still is). Hot and nice and funny and intelligent - in short, almost perfect. Two questions:

1. Were you all having threesomes at 15? Apparently my crowd was (unbeknownst to me), or at least seriously contemplating them.

2. Is it wrong for me to be just a little bit annoyed with my friend for not letting this happen (although I can see her point - I would have mostly just participated in the whole thing in a lame attempt to steal him away from her, and that is not a nice thing to do to a friend).
1. No.

2. Yes.

When I see the lyrics to "Hot for teacher" I see pictures of David Lee Roth in Spandex in my head. And it won't go away.

Kobe

So Kobe picked the extra $40 million rather than a fresh start. Shocking. He always struck me as selfless...

OK that's twice today dL, watch it or I'll splat you like tomato thrown at a brick wall by Randy Johnson in his new Red Sox uniform.

Thanks for that, pony!

edited to add comma, otherwise it sounded like AdL gave me a pony.
