Man Alive! Maya Alyssa Maestas has arrived!

(Update: got the photo)

(Jenn) Lundy had a baybay!

Don't spell her name "Mya." Her love isn't like "Whoa!"

Her name is what?!?

When talking to my brother this evening, a friend of his (Jim) came up in conversation and I asked where Jim was living these days. Apparently, Jim and his wife have relocated to Naples, FL. This was the exchange when I asked the name of Jim's wife:

Me: "What's her name?"
J: "LaFawnda."
Me: *chortle* "Her name is what?"
J: "La-fawn-duh."
Me: "No way."
J: No response.
Me: "You've never seen Napoleon Dynamite, have you?"
J: "No. Why?"
Me: "O.K. You definitely need to rent it now. And I have to go, because I have to call my friend Ginger right now."

The Best. Period.

It's pretty. So pretty.

Happy Thanksgiving

I hope you are fat and happy.

Maybe now he'll have time to find the "real killers."

(I'd asked for people to boycott it. I'm glad it was taken a step further. Finally ... some common ground where a line can be drawn.)

"I and senior management agree with the American public that this was an ill-considered project," said Rupert Murdoch, News Corp. chairman.

Doesn't "ill-considered" imply that it was considered at all?

(Update: You're right. It isn't worth it.)

GO BUCKS!!!

See you at the National Championship.

Wrong and Bad Together

Now that I've finished throwing up on my shoe, I'll give perhaps the best example EVER of how ratings $ will trump morality every time, apparently.

I had heard a few weeks back that OJ was getting some cash to release his "hypothetical" book and really hoped it was a rumor. Or some genius creation of Borat.

But now, fresh from FOX, the "news" network of all things moral, fair, and balanced, comes this release (via the fine folks at EW) :

JUDITH REGAN’S EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH O.J. SIMPSON

“O.J. SIMPSON: IF I DID IT, HERE’S HOW IT HAPPENED”

TO AIR AS A TWO-PART SPECIAL ON FOX

Special to Air Over Two Nights:

Monday, November 27, and Wednesday, November 29

Over 10 years after he was tried for two murders in the "Trial of the Century" that captured the attention of the world, O.J. Simpson, in his own words, tells for the first time how he would have committed the murders if he were the one responsible for the crimes. Noted publisher Judith Regan will talk with Simpson in a wide-ranging, no-holds-barred interview that will be the basis of a two-part special, O.J. SIMPSON: IF I DID IT, HERE’S HOW IT HAPPENED (working title), airing Monday, Nov. 27 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) and Wednesday, Nov. 29 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.

The Simpson criminal and civil trials captivated people around the world for a decade, and now no topics are off-limits -- Simpson has agreed to an unrestricted interview with Regan. In the two-part event, Simpson describes how he would have carried out the murders he has vehemently denied committing for over a decade.

"This is an interview that no one thought would ever happen. It’s the definitive last chapter in the Trial of the Century," said Mike Darnell, Executive Vice President of Alternative Programming.

Although acquitted of murdering Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman, Simpson was later sued in civil court, found responsible for both murders and ordered to pay $33.5 million in restitution to the families of the victims. A decade later, Simpson has written a book that hypothetically describes how the murders would have been committed. If I Did It will go on sale Thursday, Nov. 30, under the REGAN imprint.

Please, for the love of whomever, DO NOT purchase this book. Or watch this show. Please.

*shudder*

Calling all Taylors ...

"The Welsh bid hopes to attract up to 2,000 Joneses to a show in Cardiff where they will be entertained by singers and dancers, all called Jones, including former Bond actress, supermodel and pop icon Grace Jones, who headlines the show."

Any qualified Welshman can tell you that you can't shake a stick in Wales without hitting a Jones. Or an Evans. So personally, I think 2,000 was really too low. And I also think they should have gotten Tom instead of Grace.

But personally, I think the Taylors can overtake all of you.

Praise Jesus. There is a God.
