Bob Costas says that there are a number of blogs where “the quality is poor and the tone is abusive” which I’m assuming is not talking about me. That said, Buzz Bissinger takes on Will Leitch and it’s… ummm… intense?

This is extremely disturbing
…and I’m not sure which is worse — these women who “mommy” their husbands or the namby-pamby men they marry: She picks out his clothes before they go out, styles his hair, makes his lunches complete with “I love you” notes inside) and takes it upon herself to apply the toothpaste before handing him his [...]

JDB Countdown!
I’m seeing Josh Dion Band on Friday night! Here they are performing my second favorite song of theirs… but they’re SOOOOOOOOO much better live.

I think this is BEAUTIFUL
…but I can’t make the video embed. You should watch it though and get goosebumps! (Also, Jimi Westbrook is super hot. And married a gorgeous brunette named Karen.)

Idol Predictions
Okay, I’m thinking: Jason & Brooke are the bottom two. Jason goes home. BUT, Archu-average is not doing so hot. Why would anyone try and sing “Sweet Caroline” well? That’s one of the best drunken singalong songs of all times… which means it’s probably not a good pick for a sexually-confused Mormon choir boy. Maybe [...]

I guess Duke is the right place for him
So my fight with Paul was mainly surrounding the fact that he could go to med school in NYC and instead is going to NC. AND, he’s already announced he can’t come to my birthday party because he’ll be backpacking in the woods. However, I’m a forgiving woman and little texts like this remind me [...]

I’m still not sure this is the solution
Airport food is evolving: In the ambitious menu for Gordon Ramsay Plane Food, a restaurant that opened last month in the new Terminal 5 of London Heathrow Airport, Mr. Ramsay, the celebrity chef, has made few obvious concessions to the locale. A diner might start with a pea, leek and goat-cheese tart, followed by braised [...]

I wish Intern Pete had been in this class…
At NYU, some kids found razor blades in a muffin. Apparently they were leftover from a previous class. Maybe it’s the former camp counselor in me, but honestly couldn’t you just write a paper about razor blades in muffins? I can’t imagine this was necessary.

"If I had a rabbi who brought this much game, I wouldn’t have spent this Passover neck deep in a bacon and cheese crossandwich"
I meant to post this yesterday.

Now there are no excuses
So there’s been tepid interest in joining me at the Zoo, but NO ONE wants to go to the Aquarium with me. People, aquariums are better than zoos: They don’t smell They’re climate controlled There’s NO CHANCE of a gorilla attacking you Your shoes don’t get covered in popcorn Anyway, thanks to the fine people [...]

How did I miss this???
Liz just told me that this reminded her of the Duke kids doing the Ignition Remix which must have been sent around over a year ago. It’s well worth the four minute commitment to watch.

Greatest new reality show
MTV Music Videos MTV Shows Entertainment News I’m obsessed with “The Paper.” It’s amazing. Really. Anyway, you can catch up with all episodes on mtv.com, but here’s the best part of last night’s episode. Alex and Alix get together when Alex texts her “Will u b my girlfriend They’re supposed to be writing a report, [...]

I want it THIS way
This morning, iPod shuffle brought me the Backstreet Boys’ “I Want It That Way” and I was all prepared to come in to work and share the video in all its glory with you. Unfortunately, the BSB decided to disable video embedding… but the related videos on YouTube got piqued my interest. This version of [...]

Shocker of the century: I have some driving problems
Liz gets major bonus points for always cheering me up — which she did quite well this morning — but also, for going to Engineering Camp with me AND dealing with me driving everyday to school for Junior spring and all of Senior year… me: OH, you know what we never discussed?the American Idol finalists [...]

Roger has bad taste in women, trainers
Oh, Jesus, Roger, what were you thinking? Turns out Roger Clemens had a 10-year affair with Mindy McCready. Let’s count the ways in which the story is weird: They met when she was 15 and he was a 28-year old married father of two! They used to party with Monica Lewinsky and Michael Jordan (when [...]

Forgotten Garth
Wrapped Up In You (video) This song isn’t one of my top Garth picks, but iPod shuffle served it up at the gym today and I felt compelled to share it with you all. That said, I don’t totally get why Garth is singing “wrapped up in you” to a bunch of elderly hick checkers [...]
