Classy!


I never claim to be a saint, nor the great satan.

One of my odd summer rituals is watching that incorrigible rascal Regis and Kelly. I know, but we all have our oddities.

Meryl Streep is on talking about Mama Mia this morning. They praise her, she gives her haughty laugh and basks in the accolades. As I watch her, she has that disconnect from you and I one would prejudice with "those Hollywood types."

As they talk about her adoration of Bette Davis, Streep praises her for her character roles. It's her last line of the interview that dares my ire, she says she loves how she was not afraid to play a "bitch."

Did I tell you I watch this with my three children sometimes?

Did I?

Maybe she should have been looking in the mirror when she said that.

Is that show live, or could they have beeped that out? It is a morning show afterall. I would venture to say mnay kids would be around while a parent is watching.

I personally don't care for Streep, and have no desire to see that movie because of it. I would have with someone else starring.

I think is live. Either they are slow on the "beep" button or lazy

You're lucky she only said b---h. As I'm sure you're aware, some "family programs" go a lot further than that!

btw, I can only take on 8 five year olds, geez obob, 26 of them? I can't imagine how you answered some of the questions!

Beth, I am a bad man in a bad time.
Edge, it was in the casual manner she that said is I found disturbing. Next you'll hear how to use pimp in a job interview and land it!

Streep isn't acting unless she's dragging the back of her hand across her face...I hope they've got that in Mamma Mia. I never did like her, either.

You're SURE lucky you weren't watching Jane Fonda on the TODAY SHOW a while back...she said the name of a play she was starring in and I've NEVER HEARD THAT WORD ON TELEVISION before!!

Kissinger Doing the Weather

Kissinger Doing the Weather
Back in the early 90s, I awoke with a wicked hang over one morning. As I sat on the floor watching the morning news, I swore I saw Harold Kissinger doing the weather. No one believed me. Professors discounted me. I have been vindicated.
