    Just as I suspected, a blatant rip off of Lawrence Kasdan's Body Heat. It's all there.

    Hmmm. I'm guessing that the Island of Misfit Toys also includes nostril beads, ben-wa squares and a vibrator shaped like William Howard Taft.

    Please, please let the developmentally challenged kid's father be played by Chris Burke (Corky from "Life Goes On") so we can have an unexpected and completely inane national dialogue about whether developmentally challenged people who procreate should be able to put their developmentally challenged offspring on the public option.

    Foster, I hate to get all Christmasy on your ass at this early date, but I'm going with "A Dog Named Christmas" and here's why.

    First of all, you yourself have a very unusual first name, do you not? So I think you can allow a dog to be named Christmas, yes?

    Secondly, anything that shows service dogs in action, is super cool. I believe this ultimately furthers the idea that animals are good and look what they can do, so therefore we need to treat them well, etc.

    Third. I read "Marley & Me" and it wasn't bad, but the movie was just a horrific Jennifer Aniston Is Adorable Fashion Show, like all of her movies, so anything that's not that movie is better by leaps and bounds.

    I do agree with you on the method acting-over-the-top acting situation. I'm hoping it's not exploitive, but instead shows how others live and manage each day. [wow, did I really just write this?]...Am I still on Gawker?

    @Banjo-Sea Kitten: On the dvd copy I saw, Jennifer Aniston's post-partum depression was really not cute. I don't remember how they solved that problem. Perhaps Marley stole some Xanax from the neighbour, and for once, didn't eat it?

    The golden retrievers in that picture are going to hella pissed that you are suggesting they are in fact labrador retrievers, their prime inter-species rival.

    @son of spam: this reminds me of a Christmas card my friends sent one year of their dog doing this with a Santa hat on her head and it said, "Oh Crap, It's Christmas." Maybe everybody did that one that year...but I thought it was funny.

    @ParahSalin: Hopefully the owner gets beat-up at the dog park, too, for putting that contraption on his dog. Is picking up poo with a plastic bag really THAT much more of a hassle such that this thing looks like a good idea?

    @Atilla the Bun: Seriously, this is the canine equivalent of a male thong bikini bathing suit - something my emotionally abused retinas never want to see again. The only people who get to use this contraption and not have scorn heaped upon them are the elderly who are too frail to bend over and scoop the poop.

    What's the ad/editorial ratio at Newsday? They may not need editorial staffers at all. It seems like every issue is 90% advertising, and that's not counting the ad inserts.
