Happy New Year
Happy New Year, a day or so early. I won’t be posting tomorrow as I’ll be at my friend Laura’s, getting my food and drink on. Thank you all for another great year. I can’t imagine not waking up every morning, getting online and hanging out with all you freaks. It absolutely improves my life. Thanks for sharing the internets with me.
President Bush’s Notable Statements of 2005
President Bush’s notable statements of 2005. And when I say “notable,” I actually mean “imbecilic.”
Cash pours in for student with $1 million Web idea
This is the kind of story that ends with me on my knees, banging my fists on the floor, screaming, “Why not me, god, WHY NOT ME?”
Scientologists Against Psychiatry
Scientologists have opened a museum about psychiatry, calling it “The Industry of Death.” Yeah, so, uh… You know, I can actually get behind some of the points they’re trying to make here, albeit in their only-in-Scientology bizarre way. Many children today are overmedicated, many doctors are too quick to hand out pills, and often people do not pay attention to side effects, with tragic results. HOWEVER. What do you think of their “10 to 25% of psychiatrists sexually assault their patients” statistic? That kinds of reeks of FAKE, doesn’t it? Of course, any time I think something they say makes sense, I just have to remember the whole aliens-and-volcanoes thing. Hand me some Prozac, I’ll be okay. [thanks to jane for the link]
A Magazine for Couples
I’m sorry, but is this not the grossest thing you’ve ever seen? A magazine for COUPLES? Ew. Just the thought of it gives me the shudders. It seems so awfully twee and adorable and hip.
Girl’s Night Out
Last night a few of us wimmin went out for a post-holiday dinner. Lisa and I met up with Janet, Greater Czarina and Bluebunny at this restaurant. Good stuff. We had some delicious red wine, a great dinner (I had the tuna, although I scraped off the fennel, because, ew), decadent dessert (chocolate s’mores tart, bitch), and then some more wine at the bar. A lovely evening. Tonight I meet up with my friend Laura for a more casual night of margaritas and chips. Woot woot!
Top 50 Music Videos Of 2005
A Top 50 Videos of 2005 list, with links to the videos. There is some great stuff here. I must say, though, Antony of Antony & The Johnsons (#20) scares the ever-living crap out of me. I’m fascinated by him yet terrified at the same time. His voice haunts me. Also of note, #48 because hey, David Cross! The White Stripes video (#21) is remarkable; I believe I read somewhere that it was done all in one long take.
Atari Flashback
We got one of these for Christmas. Jealous? Last night I remembered how much I suck at Pitfall.
Kevin Federline Official Website
Kevin Federline has a website. Yeah, it’s real. You totally want to look. He is such a putz. I’d waive my new divorce rule for Britney to leave him, you know. [link has audio. really, really, really, really, really lame audio]
Tori Spelling Is Engaged – Yahoo! News
Tori Spelling is engaged. Apparently neither she or the guy she’s marrying are even divorced yet. Couldn’t wait? Not even a minute to make it look somewhat respectable? I wonder if she really is pregnant.
I’m so sick of all these celebrity marriages – engaged or married after knowing each other for like a week, immediately divorcing when someone else catches their eye, annulling spur-of-the-moment nuptials…jackasses, all of them. I take my marriage very seriously and it pisses me the hell off when this shit is allowed to go on without comment — yet my gay friends can’t get married because it would “take away” from “real” marriages. Ugh. JUST UGH. Here’s hoping 2006 brings America some enlightenment. Or at least mandatory prison terms for celebrities who a) divorce less than a year after marrying, or b) make us watch television shows about their adorable marriage and then divorce when they’ve made enough money (Kathy Griffin, you’re lucky you escaped this one).
