No wonder I don't come around here very often anymore.

Speaking of which, went to see Foo Fighters a week ago and the venue was on the same site as a big amphitheater site. So we get stuck in this horrible traffic and we are wondering what's up with all the Foo Fighter fans in tie dyed shirts, etc. Then we start seeing parrothead references. Yes, you guessed it, Buffet was playing at the outdoor venue... So the funny part of the story is that the parking guys were guessing (probably pretty accurately) which concert people were coming in to see based on their appearance. We were pegged for Foo Fighters and I was relieved. Thank God I left my parrot at home...

Aaaaaaaghhhhh! She looks awful. Now I'm really bummed.

By the way, what is the deal with the new sexpot R&B singer style for Jewel? Bad career move.

That scene is what has kept me off the drugs.

And Lori Loughlin getting knocked up and being a socially-ostracized teen mom was what kept me from sleeping with high school football players!

Atticus, Atticus

But who wants to hear my verse to come,
About a Grinch, an ill-bred varlet?
Though yet, heaven knows, his ass and his thumb
Combined gives him joy. Not all, but a part of it.

If I tried to write of his "wit" in these lines
The members, no fear, would not soon tire of it,
The verse I would write, would not fill one line
I then would make light of his overstuffed doublet

I'll stop now, you piteous rump-fed puttock
You're scorn'd like old men, Like Less and his tongue,
That fobbing villain, another thumb-n-buttock
Birds of a feather in this antique song.

You're bless'd with an old man's energy and a youth's IQ,
Atticus, Atticus, I say Fuck You.

On the contrary, I was madly in love with Reggie Jackson. But at age 8, I was rather too young for him.

I bet you could have bagged him if you pursed your lips.

Get it? "Pursed"? Ha!! I Kill me.

I saw her this a.m. on one of the morning shows (after you all were undoubtedly already at work - it was late) and she kept saying how she felt embarrassed to be prancing about with little clothing and I kept thinking - "then stop!" OTOH - I thought she looked pretty good (they showed the making of a video) for someone who was clearly not comfortable with the shots. I'm not sure about the music yet, though, but it will sell - remember old fogeys like us aren't buying most of the music.

Yes, it seems like the reverse career arc. Usually it's T&A to get yourself noticed. Then become more mature. Of course, no full albums in a few years may create a need for a career jolt. Or she's all out of money, and the record label offered her only hoochie clothes to wear.

Old fogeys like us are the only ones buying music. The younger set just steals it through kazaa etc.

And, speaking of buying music, I was browsing the Apple music store. They have a Jewel section with the "making of the video" for whatever that new song is with her dancing around like Brittney. Curiously, the segment on the today show this morning was essentially that exact making-of-video, with Matt Lauer's voice dubbed over in sections, or with brief cuts to him asking questions. All the video footage was online. Has the Today show sunk to stock footage à la Entertainment Tonight?
