www.alternet.org has an anti-Oscar award named the Keanus, after chronically bad actor Keanu Reeves. With such catagories as Celebrity Most Likely To Be Crushed By The Weight of Own Ego or Actor Most Apt To Take Mantle From Keanu Reeves, it's well worth the time to visit the site & vote for your favorite repeat offenders. Sounds like the sailors on this around-the-world race have a little too much time on their hands. "...so many flying fish had landed on the Swedish Team SEB yacht the crew offered around £40 to anyone who caught one - but the winner had to eat it straight away, raw. It's thought no-one has taken up the challenge." Even better is this genius: "Djuice dragons sailor Nossiter has suffered several injuries since the race started. He also burned his buttocks with cleaning fluid a day before it started." Oy. Saddam Hussein has written two soon-to-be-released novels. Curiously, Fabio appears in the cover art on both.... Pamela Anderson has turned having Hepatitus C into an attack on her ex-hubby. "....14:57, 14:58, 14:59....ok, boys, pack her up & ship her off! She's done!" After years of trying, it finally looks like the campaign finance reform bill will be signed by Dubya. Some top Republicans say the bill unfairly violates their 1st Amendment rights. After so many different attempts to gut the Constitution, why do they care now? One word: power. Well, make that two words: money & power. Yeah, definitely two words. Been having problems getting Blogger to work properly. I think it's my crappy dialup connection. Yeah, I should wake up and join the 21st century..... Sunday, March 17, 2002
I was in Des Moines this weekend & got to see my goddaughter. She's three, and cute as a button. She also has her daddy completely wrapped around her finger. Sucker. Have you ever noticed how free small children are? For example, at one point this weekend, my goddaughter took off her pants because she "didn't want to wear them". She then spent the rest of the day running around in a purple shirt & undies, without a care in the world. When do we adults lose that feeling of nonchalance? Can you imagine being at the office, in a small, confining, cookie-cutter cubicle, and just deciding to take off your pants because you didn't feel like wearing them anymore? Or running down the street (sans-pants), jumping in the air yelling "I'm a fairy princess! I'm a fairy princess!"? Oh, how I envy her that freedom.... |
