    I'm reminded of the days when hordes would be waiting at the docks for the new Dickens chapter to come in, and they'd shout to the upper decks before the ship was moored, "Did Little Nell die?"


    Our whole culture is driven by a passel of fictional high school dropout divas, and in all of the sickness and death in this world, we are to worry about these tawdry twits?

    Long ago it was reported in a study of a psych hospital that the most stable relationship on the ward by far was the lesbian match. Proof.

    I want the famous people to stop going gay right before they go crazy. It doesn't look good.

    Ugh, Kevin Bacon, this ain't gonna end well. You are a fantastic, fabulous, exceptional character actor, but I fear this Madoff scam is going to entice you into taking lead roles in second rate movies. Yeah, acting alongside Meryl Streep in that river rafting thing seemed like a good idea, but was it your best work? Is it even in the top twenty movie roles you have ever done? No. And it never will be. Please continue to do 50 smaller roles rather than one big one, you will thank me for this tough love later.

    Hearing this news about Patrick Swayze just about breaks my heart. I am sure he is getting wonderful care though, and is surrounded by his loved ones.


    This just sucks.

    @MsMuffinMcGuffin: Ok, can I just say that I've been depressed about the Patrick Swayze cancer news probably beyond all reason. I guess I was more attached to the guy than I thought. I mean really, who ever got over "Dirty Dancing?" But the good thing is, it's one reason forcing me to quit smoking. Smoking is a risk factor for pancreatic cancer, and he's been a decades long smoker.


    Snark break.

    Courtney is, like, totally OK with having set her ex-girlfriend's hair on fire. I mean, REALLY, the Skank had a NASTY haircut and SOMEBODY had to do something about it! But you know they're ALWAYS going to remain GOOD good friends.

    I wish the Post would not refer to domestic violence as a "catfight." Just saying...

    @brookster: They were probably this close to speculating whether or not the domestic violence included feather pillows, and if the assailant and victim were scantily clad in lingerie or not.

    I'm sorry, but Courtenay Semel is just trash. And not funny-trash like Britney Spears, where you're really kind of rooting for her because you know that circumstances maybe just got kinda out of her control and you want her to get better. Just plain reprehensible no-redeeming-value trash like Rod Blagojevich or that woman who made that 13 year old girl kill herself on myspace. But kinda worse acutally because she just has no excuse.

    @Mount_Prion: He created the culture of Bokonon. Unless there had been the matrix of a wrang-wrang, a buffoon demonstrating the wrong path by taking it, there could have been neither a Crawford Cretin nor a Nome Ninny.
