Trash TV

In my hunt for the most mind numbing, cotton candy entertainment of the week, I flip through the channels quite a bit. Guess what I found, people? A new TV obsession: RuPaul's Drag Race. Oh yeah, THAT RuPaul.
It follows a competition between 9 fabulous drag queens to be the next superstar drag queen. Let me tell you, some of those “ladies” are very pretty. They are clearly professionals. They have baby soft skin, great bodies and have some fierce makeup skills. I have questions though, where do they put their .. er ..ahem.. um.. parts?? Anyone know?
Now they have a new show, Drag U, where nerdy every day girls are made up by drag queens and lip synch RuPaul songs. What next?

I'm glad


  1. I'm glad that I have learned to ask for help when I need it instead of being ashamed that I can’t do everything myself.
  2. I'm glad that I taught myself to cook...and do it well!
  3. I'm glad I redecorated my home in thrifty chic because every day it makes me happy!
  4. I'm glad that I am not anal retentive and research everything before making decisions because I like to be spontaneous and make mistakes so I can learn.
  5. I’m glad I have met some great bloggy friends.
  6. I’m glad I have this comfortable lifestyle and I'm grateful for all of my material possessions.
  7. I’m glad for my home. Although it has its cracks & flaws
  8. I’m glad I have learned some life lessons through painful situations. Ah the storms I have been through. But they've all helped me to become a better person.

Random thoughts about Charlie Sheen

I'm sure there is a rational explanation for all of this, and Teflon Charlie will be vindicated once more. And then, given another raise.

I happen to think Two and a Half men is HILARIOUS.
Granted it was much funnier in the earlier seasons and I have also been told I have 12 year old boy sense of humor. But I get it...it makes me laugh.

It sure would be nice to just press fast-forward on this tool's life story and get to the good part. You know, the part when it all ends in a tragically embarrassing blaze of glory involving hookers, drugs, minors and Polaroid's.

He acts this way AND gets paid millions with no repercussions

This guy is out of control and doesn't seem to care who he takes with him.

He acts like he's above everything and he actually is. What makes him so special? Really, I would kind of understand if he was a superstar. As it is, he's just a messed-up overpaid TV actor.

How is it that there is no sex tape out there starring him and his many STD’s?

And last but not least, maybe he was simply fighting off bed bugs when he trashed that hotel room?

TENJOOBERRYMUDS

This is too funny .... Sad, because it is TRUE ...
By the time you read through this YOU WILL UNDERSTAND "TENJOOBERRYMUDS"...
In order to continue getting by in America (our home land), we all need to learn the NEW English language! Practice by reading the following conversation until you are able to understand the term "TENJOOBERRYMUDS".
With a little patience, you'll be able to fit right in.
Now, here goes...


The following is a telephone exchange between perhaps you as a hotel guest and a phone call to room-service somewhere in the good old USA today.......
Room Service : "Morrin. Roon sirbees."
Guest : "Sorry, I thought I dialed room-service."
Room Service: " Rye . Roon sirbees....morrin! Joowish to oddor sunteen???"

And you thought you didn't speak a foreign language!!

RIP

walkman

The Sony Walkman is officially dead.

Sony has decided to end production and sales of their Walkman portable cassette players after more than 30 years on the market.

The final batch was produced in Japan this year and as soon as they're sold, there will be no more.

Since 1979, over 200 million Walkman cassette players have been sold.

Sony plans to continue making and selling their CD and MiniDisc-based Walkmans.

The passing of the Walkman is indeed an end of an era.
