ENDANGERED FECES

I miss Gilda Radner. After she left Saturday Night Live, the show seemed to lose its edge. After she passed, the world just seemed a little less fair. I stumbled across this passage from a skit she did.

The character's name was Emily Litella, a social activist with a hearing problem. She was a regular feature on the fake news, a segment that remains a part of the show. Here is one of my favorite passages:

Emily: "What's all this fuss I hear about endangered feces? That's outrageous. Why is feces endangered? How can you possibly run out of such a thing? Just look around you--you can see it all over the place. And besides, who wants to save that anyway?"

Jane Curtin: "Umm, Emily, the issue is actually endangered species, not feces."

Emily: "Oh... that's different. Never mind"

DUMB JOCKS, Part 1

From the BRI's collection of quotes:

"All I want is for my case to be heard in front of an impractical decision maker."

Uh, what? Oh well, I guess you can't have it all. Although Pete Rose is one of the better athletes of our time (at least in baseball), he's obviously not that bright.

COLOR ME IMPRESSED

Last season, on HGTV they had a contest to pick a new, "star." They ended up picking David Bromstad, and boy am I happy they did! He's so hot. He's tall (which beats out Oprah's design guru, Nate), has an amazing body (take that "Trading Spaces") and gay as the day is long. And yes, he's got the gay-lisp/valley-girl inflection when he talks, but he's so cute, and so amazing at what he does, I don't care.

I don't have any particular hang-ups about "nelly" queens, or gay men with limp wrists... I'm usually into big, dumb (and I'm talking Gold's Gym-big, and dumb as a box of rocks) manly men. But they're usually not flexible enough to have fun (or what I consider fun), in the bedroom, so sometimes you need a big ol' girl. (So to speak.) David doesn't qualify as being a big' ol girl, but more of a sexy blend of big'n'manly and sassy-sexy.

If you haven't checked out his show, Color Splash on HGTV, you're missing out.

WORST RECORD... EVER(?)

I can't believe I found this, but (praise the internet) I did! The BRI named its worst albums ever made, and this is the cover of the winner. According the entry, this album was a total mess.

I'm guessing the list was made before Celine Dion ever put an album out.

LORD HELP ME

It has been a while since I posted, but I thought I'd ease back into by simply saying this: I actually like the new Hilary Duff song, "With Love." I still think she's a total light-weight, as far as vocals go, but props to her for throwing-down with breakbeats.

I'll have more music picks, but I wanna get back in the groove of blogging soon.
