Papa Is Not a Rolling Stone

So Keith Richards evidently snorted a bit of his daddy, who was cremated, with some blow. Why is this not the least bit surprising? What is more surprising to me is that Keith is the same age as MY father. I mean look at these two men......






My father looks so much younger and more, well, normal!! Keith looks all craggy and pasty yellow and kind of like he died and then they brought him back....not actually to life...just dug him back up and put a bunch of eyeliner on him so no one would notice.

What is up with his hair??? At least my Dad just works the bald head thing. I am so glad my dad does not look like a dead dug up pirate.

Also....a 63 year old man needs to button up that shirt Keith....no one wants to see what is down there.

The Little TV show that Could

So while other shows are jumping the shark (Lost) or off the air for 9 months (BSG) another little show over on CBS has been quietly gaining momentum all season. Jericho...have any of you watched it? It really is coming into its own. I actually think its been consistently a better show then Lost or Heroes.

If you havent had time to watch it go to http://www.cbs.com/primetime/jericho/
They offer all the episodes for viewing via your computer. This past weeks episode was just indicative of what the whole season has offered. My only beef is the weekly "musical" montage which unfortunately has become standard for almost EVERY serial drama on the air regardless of genre. Its tiresome even if sometimes effective.
So now that BSG is off and Heroes doesnt come back until late April i can enjoy wednesday nights as TV night with a back to back Jericho and Lost.

Texas Girl Scouts trying to bring back hats....


but i dont think hats ever truly go out of style. There will always be a place for a lady sporting a good hat. Dont you think?


My sister and her two daughters recently attended a mother daughter tea given by the girl scouts in their area. They actually decorated their own hats. Pretty nifty. I LOVE hats. Always have. And i actually used to have a pretty decent collection in college i would sport. Now its mostly winter togs for me. Oh well. I dont guess the wolverine is going to require me to decorate a hat one day for boy scouts or anything. The down side of having a boy. The upside.....no expensive prom dresses to buy either.


Ladies...i think we should have one day a week we proclaim "Hat day" and wear our most fun hats. Or give us an excuse to go buy one.
