Things I'm so totally over.

Amy Winehouse. Or should we say, Amy Whine-house. I know there are a lot of people who like her music, but I'm not one of them. I find her music to be un-origional and pretty boring. If I hear "Rehab" again I might have to actually GO to rehab in order to re-learn how to listen to music again. Aside from her music, she's a freakin' nut job! During an interview with Spin she found a piece of broken glass in her shoe, lifted up her shirt, and carved her boyfriend's name in her belly. She's in the news right now because some pics of her all beat up surfaced and the rumor was her BF was beating her. She came back and told a few Celeb Blogs that what really happened was she was at a party, met a call girl, and went back to her hotel room to do coke and herion. When her BF came back, he tried to break up Amy and the hooker, and Amy fought him. She got hit "on accident" by both BF and the hooker. Sounds like a real winner.


Now let's talk Beckhams. I'm done with them. Are we missing celeb gossip so much that we now have to focus on Brits? I know, I know: the moved to CA. So what? Do we really ahve to recap their entire life before they moves to the US? Ug.















Lindsay Lohan.
Do I really have to explain this? Put her in jail, put her in rehab (no, Amy Whine-house: don't start!) and move on.














The Mortgage Crisis. Yes, it's bad in some places. Yes, it's happened before. Yes, if you enjoyed 200% increase in value in the last 2 years without doing anything to the house, you are going to see it drop a huge number - guess what? It wasn't your equity to begin with! If it wasn't time passing or improvements that raised your value, if was fake equity anyway. (ps - that's not the case in the NW: we are really strong right now and will continue to be).







Michael Vick. He's a scumbag (here he is with a bag of pot) and a terrible person. Put him in jail and get over it. Or better yet, fill his jail cell with fighting dogs. See how that grabs him. Okay, that's mean - don't do that. But get him out of the news. This kind of dog fighting crap goes on all the time, but no one thinks about it until a high profile person gets busted. Did anyone know anything about Vick until this happened? Maybe he just wants to get some news time in order to re-work his contract....



That's what I'm over. I think I'm done with this now. Let's move on to some good topics. Something uplifting and interesting. Oh look - I just went to Yahoo homepage to see what's in the news, and the first headline is "Vick enters guilty plea." Um, Yahoo? I hate to tell you this, but that was done last Tuesday. So the non-news you are reporting isn't even up to date. Sad.
Here's something ACTUALLY cool: scientists are going to make another huge exploration dive into the deep sea. It's been in planning for years and they expect to find some new forms of life (as they do on about every deep sea dive). I'm pretty pumped about that. I love the deep sea shows on Discovery - Blue Plannet was one of my fave shows ever, and the new episodes are coming later this year. Yay! Ironically, it's my facination of the deep that makes me not want to swin in the ocean...

Well summed up Chris. I do believe we all enthusiastically agree. I also dont think your Vick in jail with fighting dogs was over the line at all. In fact, they should be rabid, aggressive dogs- just for good measure.

Word. Wordywordwordword!

I think I'm going to start calling Jacques Cousteau. Or maybe not because it's too hard to spell.

Unknown said...

That should be "calling YOU Jacques Cousteau."

Ryan, I'm guessing you don't like bleu cheese? And did you know that ALL cheese is part mould?

Gina, I stayed up way too late last night to watch the "deep sea" installment of Blue Planet on Discovery last night. I LOVE the deep sea, so Jacques is a perfect nickname for me. :)

Unknown said...

Jacques, I am going to take away your awesome nickname if you insist upon saying disparaging things about my beloved cheese.

Faloopa Jones said...

Oh no! You misunderstood me - I LOVE cheese! I sometimes eat cheese with a sauce of melted cheese!


Yea, I have cholesterol problems: so?

While I understand that cheese is all a certain form of mold. There is a distinct difference between the moldy cheese I've found in my fridge and a good bleu cheese or gouda that I enjoy at our local farmers market.
