so not only was Sarah Palin's interview with Katie Couric just too fucking good to be true, now the bitch is a holding press conference on Ground Zero! gee, that just screams American leader to me, doesn't it you? dancing on the graves of all those people with your hockey mom outfit on and American flag waving, watching Memorial videos and talking ( Read more... )

this is not the year to invest in a Broadway show. Legally Blonde, Xanadu, and [title of show] have all announced closing notices. it's only a matter of time before other shows follow suit ( Read more... )

if i had to describe myself this weekend so far, it would be: " a drunk reader".

on Friday night, i got a bottle of Parrot Bay Rum, a container of Pineapple/Orange Juice & a 2L of Hawaiian Punch. my friend Brian & i have been making it a bit of a tradition to get hammered on Friday nights on the phone together. the weather here has been pretty ( Read more... )
