Trick or Treat

Halloween has come early: people are already dressing up like Sarah Palin! Unfortunately, I think this copycat might have meant this to flatter the VP hopeful. A reader posting in the comment section sums it up best, "the woman on the right looks dishonest."

Predictable

The stock market might not be, but shots of gaping wall street traders watching the NYSE fluctuate are a dime a dozen. Besides, the pics are obnoxious: the economy is in the crapper, we get it!

Bitter, Party of One

Dear Mark Wahlberg,
You are one of the luckiest fools in Hollywood. First you get to model underwear, then you get an acting career, then you get to co-star with George Clooney, and then you get your very own Saturday Night Live parody! That is one good run, my friend, but why the long face? Do you not realize that an entire SNL skit devoted to you is one of the highest (even if mocking) honors in the land? No need for sour grapes, Andy Samberg thought about you long enough to pitch a Mark Wahlberg skit to Lorne Michaels! I just don't think that America needs your negativity right now. Please, don't hate.

Lil' Kid Things

This is hilar: Suri Cruise already knows that life is one big runway. Jen Garner and Kate Hudson are are totally copying her!

Womanizer

Britney Spears debuted her latest music video and I can't decide if I love... your thoughts? I said it would never happen, she just may be back!

Conspiracy Theory

If the repubs think there is a liberal news media conspiracy (which there isn't, Palin just manages to look that bad on her own), then that shiz goes both ways. Apparently three rounds of proof reading couldn't stop the name Barack Osama from going on Albany absentee ballots.

I'm Tempted....

Oprah is searching for Mary-Kate and Ashley's biggest fans. Should I apply? Would I get to meet them? Would they give me free clothes? Should I alert PETA?

Damaged

Breaking Danity Kane news: Aubrey O'Day has been kicked out? Last night's Making the Band ended with a heated discussion between the girls and Diddy, culminating with the boss man telling Aubrey she's out! But, like any self-respecting reality show, they ended with a cliffhanger: tune in next week to see if it's true! Is Aubrey really out? Will other members leave with her? Will Aubrey and Aundrea ever speak again? Is Dawn getting a solo album? Does anyone even care about Shannon (jk, she seems nice)? Viewers sure are curious: currently, next Tuesday's season finale is #17 on Google's hot trends (the list is updated multiple times throughout the day)- I can't wait for next week's drama!

Hairy-Kate and Trashley

I pretty much love all Olsen fashion. It's ridic and constantly changing, yet remains organically MKA. Unfortunately, PETA and I don't see eye to eye. Since Mary-Kate and Ashley have a penchant for sporting luxurious fur pieces, PETA has given their stamp of disapproval by creating a game where you can dress each twin in her own fur get-up: garments dripping blood, of course. Even though it's rather anti-Olsen, it's still hilar... and MK never loses her boho chic-ness.

Jon & Kate... Plus 9?!

I've previously blogged my love of Jon & Kate Plus 8 on TLC, so I was excited to hear People Magazine featured the family in their new issue! While some have questioned Jon and Kate's decision to showcase (or exploit, depending on your P.O.V.) their 2 sets of multiples on TV, there are no hints of slowing production (yay!). Even more fascinating, the couple who has famously said 'no more children' still holds on to the dream of having just one kid (who is not a multiple), and have even considered adopting! Fools, eight is enough... unless you want to make that part of the series. Then, I will gladly watch (and judge).

Cute and Cute

Since the presidential campaign has now taken a turn for the ugly (thanks McCain!), please take a break and enjoy the lovely photos that I came across: Joe Biden hearts his wife, Jill, and it's presh. These pictures of the couple on the campaign trail don't feel forced or staged and made me smile.

Prince Harry: Oh, I Just Can't Wait To Be King

Prince William may have been cute enough in the 90's, but his bro has surpassed him as the hot prince in the family... and he's a red head to boot!

Friendlies

When I was in 2nd grade and did well on my report card, my dad took me to Toys 'R Us (spoiled much?) to pick out a reward. I chose a lovely pink elephant who I named Penelope. My brother claimed I would play with her for 10 minutes and then lose interest, as many of my other stuffed animals (or 'friendlies' as i called them) sat untouched once they became old news. But Penelope was different and she is still with me today, having undergone some fancy patchwork to keep her delicate, fabric face intact. This pic that Marisa sent me reminds of Penelope when she was fresh from the toy store, but even though she has aged, I still love her just the same, as she does me.

Scarier Than The Boogie Man!

Sean Combs is scared of Sarah Palin.. and he vlogged (video blogged) about it! Diddy, an outspoken Obama supporter, shares my fear that an inexperienced, narrow-minded, Joe-six pack will become our Vice President. We've had Joe-six-pack in office for 8 years, and look where we are now.
If you are an undecided voter, please watch the VP debate tonight and the remaining Presidential debates. Oh, and register to vote while you're at it!

Animales!

I love silly animals and I just came across this quality vid of a napping puppy. Having escaped from the Lost island, this polar bear is dancing to Ginuwine's Pony, which automatically makes him my friend (does this mean he too has to return to the island with the Oceanic Six?). My fave animal clip that trumps all others is the talking goat. I've watched it a lot (more than I care to admit) and it cracks me up every time! That goat is chatty!
