Hmmmm...Bambi made me cry, but that doesn't mean I want it made into a musical.
"Full disclosure: Keith Richards has been my idol and role model for over 40 years." Thanks for the heads up. This might be an impotant disclaimer to introduce all further written work.
Camilla bugs.
A and E presented a very nice adaptation of Pride and Predjudice in the 90's. Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth were perfectly cast. But I guess it was not sexy enough for Hollywood. I have a theory that it is men who are really the ones who go for the overtly romantic shmaltz not women. This movie may go far in promoting this hypothesis.
Well crappity crap crap. I read Lolita for the first time in my mid twenties and thought it was really twisted, beautiful and hi-larious. Is that wrong? Am I twisted because I enjoyed the comedy? I better read it again with the sugested reference material.
accepting of women and everything. But Kate changed my mind. Not through her retoric, but her apperance. Because everytime I see her I just think to myself, Jesus Kate do something with your teeth. Bleach them or something!
Not real ones! They have been selling fake silicone bra pads for years. Anyone as savvy as "Jane" would know this. Anyone that cooks knows that old uncooked chicken smells like a poo.
And ice on the nips before the audition? How long before the audition? Ice will only keep em pert for like 2 min.
Keith Olbermann is the Hunky Hunk with a brain that makes erudite women like me get all weak in the knees (Think harrison Ford in 'Raiders of the Lost Ark' lecturing in the classroom). I don't care if I agree with him about everything on his show, the man looks good doing it!
Aside from Al Frankin (love you too Al, but not like that) he is the only man who has stood up to O'blowhard on a National level, and not only not backed down, but won! Yippppeeeee! Brains beat the bully, now that is something to teach the kids!
I agree Musto is a bit difficult to watch. During his segment I usually close my eyes and imagine Keith doning his leather jacket and fedora taking out his trusty whip, lashing it through the air until it catches on to a set scaffolding and swinging out into the night ready for adventure.
I love you Keith!!! xoxo
Bush went to war, because the people he hired, Cheney, Rove...told him that he should.
President Bush when running for the office countered the Press query as to what experience he had to be President, that he would hire the best people to oversee various departments and he would follow their advice. I think Bush believes he did what he promised and what the American people expected.
I am sad that our citizens expect so little thought from their President.
President Clinton is his own man.
Unlike Bush hiding behind the skirts of his talking points.
It has been a long time since the press has actually seen real emotion and not just conjured outrage.
The boys on Fox are all wussies.
Good lord how would they have handled LBj (all that ball talk)? As usual they talk the talk, and then run home to nanny sucking their collective thumbs when anyone smarter or louder than they are challenges their collective thought.
I miss President Clinton.
I am still stuck on the hand on Naomi Wolf's thigh!
I did not read the article she wrote cited in this essay, but I am stuck on how stuck she got on the hand on her thigh. I am now eager to share my "hand on thigh stories."
In 5th grade there was about a week where all the boys pinch the girls butts. As I recall lots of different reactions were had by the girls. Some giggled, some yelled, some said nothing. I guess when it was my turn I to be pinched I reflexively socked the guy in the back. A nice sold thud. I never got pinched again, and do not remember if the boys continued their weirdness.
Now later my mother converted to Islam and cover all her body except her hands and feet. At 12 she decided I would do the same. I often went with her to the our local collage where she took classes. One day I was sitting on a bench and a young man, clean cut came over and sat right next to me. So close that our bodies were touching. He started to talk about the weather or something and put his hand firmly on my thigh. I remember I was shocked and just looked at that hand on my fabric draped body. After a minute he got up and left. I vaguely recall he joined a group of guys standing close by, so I think it must have been a dare.
I do not think I was traumatized by either of these situations. But maybe I'lll write an essay about them. I am a grown woman now and so far the only consistent pschological truth I embrace is that people are so weird.
I don't think school or a degree makes a person smart. Or interesting. Or humpable.
Oh yeah, totally investigate.
I don't care what any political strategist says. The people of this country deserve to know why we went to war in Iraq and what the hell went wrong! That is not being vindictive, that is being responsible.
I wish you had not quit.
Sounds to me like Donohue and O'reilly won.
Democrats are better people and diplomats but lately we suck at politic and "opposition research."
Perhaps we should spend more money looking at who The likes of Donohue and O'reilly are sleeping with. Or just wear loofas around our necks. Clearly honest debate is impossible.
Much of the initial coverage about Fort Hood turned out to be wrong. Is there anything wrong with that?
The accountability imposed by another country for the CIA's kidnapping and torture reveals much about our own.
Fox News' morning show plays to type, talking about whether Muslims in the Army should face "special debriefings"
219 Democrats and one Republican join in favor of the legislation, which passed by a narrow margin
The survivor and author is upset about comparisons some on the right are making to genocide
