Voted Most Accurate Horoscope in a Women’s Magazine for three years running!
On a less serious note, Dennis Kucinich’s Impeachment Resolution. (It is hereby resolved that Congress bears no responsibility for the mess that is Iraq . . . ) Required reading: Shirley Maclaine’s Collected Spiritual Autobiographies (17 volumes).  Why? Because they’ve already accomplished so much.
Shame about Shirley. She was hot sweater filling in The Trouble with Harry.
Well, at least I don’t have to look at Amy Winehouse again.
I wish all celebs would follow her example at awards shows, though. She went straight to the point.
I’ve been chain-lettered the Cheney thing a few times already this week. Little late for that kind of pseudo-activity, you’d think, but there’s been a rush of it, recently.
Pre-emptive nostalgia, I guess. When Hillary’s President, they won’t be allowed to hate the government anymore, despite its being exactly the same and doing exactly the same things.
But I’ll be allowed to forget that a large percentage of my friends and associates are crazy idiots. Worth it.
Thank goodness. I was running out of information about how celebrities are just flat out more interesting people.
Dear Santa:
For Christmas, I would like a new culture. Extra cookies in it for you.
Yours,
Andrew
You using it for sourdough or yogurt? Because, sadly, that’s the only way Santa’s going to be able to bring you a new culture.
This year, I’m building a ginger bread favela.
So I sent Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) a note regarding the impeachment bill.
In it I asked–with as little snark as possible–what they’ve been doing these past 10 months. The government has been running on continuing resolutions for well over a year, and not a single one of the regular appropriations bills has been passed in all this time.
No, I’m not holding my breath waiting for an answer.
Dan, you are on top of trends, they had one of those on food network last week.
I’d ask why Hillary didn’t make the list, but maybe they’re holding her over for 08. No reason to ask why Laura Bush, Condi Rice, and Dr. Laura didn’t make the list. Can’t bump Jennifer Garner or DK!
PS I thought Shrilly was cute in Irma la Duce, too.
What, no Valerie “The Only Person Standing Between Us and a Nuclear-Armed Iran” Plame? I’m frightfully disappointed.
What about ROSIE ?! She spoke TRUTH TO POWER when nobody else would. She should get 2 awards, one for each cheek.
