My friend Marc told me the other day that my blog should be called:
OK fine, point taken! I guess he’s right…guilty as charged. I’m the kiddy, puppy, sunny anti Palin blogger. The pictures I took Sunday and Monday are of a kid (Hannah), dogs (Garbo, Ruby & Chazz) and a sunset. LOL. I guess I should be amazed that anyone still reads this blog (besides mothers and pet owners of the aforementioned, vampires and Levi Johnston (Sarah Palin’s future son-in-law.)).
And speaking of Sarah “The Anti-Christ” Palin, this was on Huff Post today:
To speak with anyone who’s ever been in close proximity of Sarah Palin for any length of time, there is a constant thread in their commentary: she will say anything, lie about anything, if it is to her own benefit to do so. Much has been said or written about this during the campaign, particularly by The Atlantic’s Andrew Sullivan, so there’s no sense in going over any of this sordid record here.
But just when you think that Palin can’t top herself–I mean the execution of a turkey in Wasilla is a pretty tough act to follow–here she comes again, seated down with a right-wing, self-promoting “filmmaker,” John Ziegler, taking cheap-shots at the likes of Caroline Kennedy and Katie Couric. The bitterness and envy and mean-spiritedness just ooze from her pores throughout the interview. Read more…
But lest you think I’m a 4 trick pony, don’t forget that from January to May you probably have to add one more moniker to my blog…American Idol. LOL.
Yes, once again, American Idol is upon us. At its best, the show extols the American Dream. At its worst, it brings out the schadenfruede in all of us. Due to my proximity to the show, I tend to get a lot of blogworthy material every season. Whether it’s my photos from the finales, or my take on some of the ridiculous aspects of the show and the culture that has sprung up around it. I am curious to know if there will be changes as a result of the suicide in front of Paula Abdul’s house. I always knew that being mean to mentally unstable people could have disastrous results. I mean, just listen to these actual Simon Cowell insults:
Each year I think it might be the end of the show’s popularity, and each year brings a new
Sanjaya,
Danny Noriega or
Jason Castro. (Actually, this year, it’s
Jason Castro’s brother and
Adam Lambert.) Anyway, I’m sure I’ll be attending a show or two this year, and will run in to these wannabe celebrities all over town. So stay tuned if you’re so inclined.
ON THE LIGHTER SIDE
“Three days before his inauguration, Barack Obama is going to retrace Abraham Lincoln’s route by taking an Amtrak train from Philadelphia to Washington, D.C. Obama’s making the trip three days early because it’s Amtrak and even he only has so much hope.” — Conan O’Brien
My standard response every time they asked how old something was:
