Sex On Queen's Lawn: Couple Caught Outside Windsor Castle


They probably wanted to tell everyone that they'd been "royally screwed". :-)

I had a 2nd interview with a river north design shop yesterday. It went well. :-)
Just got a trim & hair color. Nothing dramatic, just got rid of the grey. :-)
It's a rainy, foggy Thursday in Chicago.

Watching The Simpsons.
Sean Hannity needs to back up his claim to be waterboarded for charity since he claims it's "not torture". Is Sean afraid or was he lying? http://ping.fm/clVe4
Good morning everyone.

Cantor Caught Celebrating High-Speed Rail After Ridiculing It


Just another example of hypocrite values from the right-wing GOP. You whine & cry about something out of one side of your mouth; and praise it out of the other! Pathetic.

Rick Perry, After Raising Secession, Calls For Fed Help With Swine Flu


Once again we see that conservatives like Perry, Limbaugh, Cheney, Rove, et al. talk a big game but when it comes right down to it they're cowards. If they want to secede in Texas -- let them. But, once you do, you can't come crying for help when something goes wrong -- like a swine flu outbreak in your state. At least have the cojones to stand by your big-mouthed statements.

Why do dogs like to lay in the sun, and then pant hysterically?

The Skinny


I recall that Toni Collette gained something like 60 pounds to film "Muriel's Wedding". She was quite pudgy. That was the first movie I ever saw her in. Then later, after seeing her in other movie roles, I remember thinking that she looked emaciated. But actually she was back down to her normal weight. She's not a waif but she does look good. If I were Scarlett I wouldn't worry about the tabloids. They're going to say whatever they want. Her best revenge is to do all sorts of great movie roles at different weights and not give a damn.

Billy Bob Thornton's Band Cancels Canadian Tour


Why is it that all actors seem to want to be musicians (Bruce Willis, BBT, David Soul, Don Johnson, Juliette Lewis) and all musicians want to be actors (LL Cool J, David Bowie, Dwight Yokam, Sting, Bette Midler, Queen Latifah)? Why can't they just stick to what they do best?



I saw the Billy Bob Thornton interview which was videotaped, and he acted like a complete spoiled jackass. The interviewer made brief mention of his acting career -- why else would he even be ON the radio -- and BBT blew it way out of proportion. What a jerk.

Obama's 'Pizza Policy Is Going To Have To Change': Lou Malnati's Owner


Who cares? I live in Chicago. I work in Chicago. Most of my friends live and work in Chicago. I don't know anyone here who is the slightest bit concerned about where President Obama orders his pizza from. We're all thrilled that the rest of the country is finally seeing the great, vibrant leader who we've come to know over the past 5 years.



Pizza? Please. We've got many more real issues to discuss.
