To Blog or Not to Blog, That is the Question.

NOOO this post is not about me quitting blogging! Something is on my mind, and I am looking for some feedback. Humor me.

Here we go - I recently ran across a blog post of someone I only sort-of know. A friend of a friend of a cousin of a friend kind of thing. She had a couple of really long blog posts where she was recounting entire conversations with her ex-husband, and basically slamming him, big time. Now I do grant that the guy seems totally slam-worthy, but still. I was cringing a bit as I read it, and not because of the content, but because it seemed completely inappropriate for the web. Private, only-tell-your-mom-and-your-best-girlfriend stuff. Eat a crate of Cadbury Creme Eggs and get over it kind of stuff.

My question here is this: Is it OK to spill your entire life on a blog? Might that come back to bite you in the future? It just doesn't seem very smart to me, but hey - I am open to opinions.

Your thoughts?

Sun Maid Girls Gets Implants

Betty Crocker gets a makeover? Fine. Aunt Jemima's look is updated? That's ok. I wasn't a fan of the bandana look anyway. But mess with the Sun Maid girl? Alright, now you've just gone
too far.

What is this world coming to? Before you know it, Little Debbie will be sporting fishnets and thick black eyeliner.

Stop the madness!

Who is YOUR American Idol?

Adam or Kris?

I like them both (Adam) and I think they are both great singers (Adam). I have not decided (Adam) who I am going to vote for yet (Adam). I will decide (Adam) after I watch the final show (Adam) later tonight.

Beacuse I'm fair that way (Adam).
The Incredible Adam Lambert

The Other Guy

UPDATE: Props to Kris for winning! (Yes, I DO know his name and acknowledge his talent, people!) He is great and I will certainly buy his record.

I am not a BIT worried about my Adam's career - he will be just fine :)

The Mother of Bad Ideas

Seriously??

A 66-year old woman in Britain is 8 months pregnant, through IVF treatments she got in the Ukraine. (Shame on you, Ukraine!)

To read more, go HERE.

This poor kid will have an 84-year old mother when she/he graduates high school.

While I totally understand the desire to be a mother...66 years old?? Come ON. Selfish. This makes me feel kinda sick.

Fashion Smashion: WHO Thought THIS Was a Good Idea??

What the heck is up with all the so-called 'summer scarves' I am seeing for sale everywhere? Everyone from Nordstrom to Target is carrying these babies.

Now, I am all for a good scarf in the winter, but isn't it warm enough already in the summer? Do we HAVE to add on another layer? It looks very cute, yes, but where I live, summertime can be almost torturously hot, so even the thought of wearing a scarf makes me break into a sweat. I can barely stand to be clothed at all when it's that hot.

So tell me - - Do you sacrifice your comfort for fashion?

Nothing but Love for Adam, BUT...

NOT lovin' the hair last night, buddy. Not at all.

How much Aqua Net do you think it took?

Saw this comparison over at TMZ and completely agree.

Am I Just Getting Old, or What?

OK, I like to think of myself as pretty darn progressive. I keep up with current music and fashion and what's going on in the world. I even like a little rap music now and then. But there is something I just don't get...

Lil Wayne is a very popular rapper. I actually even like some of his stuff (if cleaned up a bit). This past week I watched both the MTV music video awards (which was a waste of time) and Saturday Night Live (never a waste of time). Lil Wayne performed on both shows.

Dude, what's with the pants??? I understand the baggy pants thing, and the showing of the waistband of the undies...that's not offensive to me (unless my kids try to do it, that's a whole other story for another day...) but WHY oh WHY do you have to have your pants COMPLETELY under your bum? I don't understand this. The pants don't fit right. You can't walk correctly. You walk like a penguin when they are that low. You are constantly grabbing your pants to make sure they don't come down in the front, too.

Stupid, stupid, stupid. Stop the madness! Pull up your pants!!

Worst. Movie. Hairstyles. Ever.


David Bowie in Labyrinth. The eyebrows are pretty sweet, though.


Brad Pitt in Johnny Suede. Horrible hair. I actually watched this ENTIRE movie. That's 110 minutes of my life that I will never get back. Shame on you, Bradley.


Javier Bardem in No Country for Old Men. Creepy Dorothy Hamill haircut.


Meryl Streep in A Cry in the Dark. Great movie, but I was totally distracted by the awful hair. Can you tell I don't care for the Dorothy Hamill 'do?


Nic Cage in Adaption. Nice fro, dude. This poor guy just needs to let his hair go with dignity, already.


Tom Cruise in Born on the 4th of July. Yikes.

And the grand prize winner IS...(dum da da dummmm...)
Tom Hanks in DaVinci Code. Simply the worst receding-hairline-mullet that I have ever seen. Good movie, but again...distracted by the hair. Not good, Tom. Not good.
