Flirting with disaster

    Jewish mommas, don't let your babies grow up to be....

    All I've heard of Winehouse is Rehab and a bit of You Know I'm No Good used to promote the Mad Men series. I did find thata voice an intriguing tease to Mad Men.

    So I went to Amazon.com to sample more songs. But what a yawn. That calculated voice no longer intrigued; it annoyed. I agree with the poster who suggested a poptart-saturated audience must be just desperate to have something, anything, new to listen to.

    As for her hard life, druggie drama: Amy, as one Jewish girl to another, make up with your mom. Your teenage rebellion is getting old, old.
