Just a few random points this wonderful Sunday night....
- Saturday Night used to be funny. They used to have gifted writing and true comedians who didn't use the show to promote some political party or some leftist philosophy. RIP SNL because you've allowed yourself to be hijacked by crap. Gilda Radner (loved Rosanne Rosanna Danna--"it's always something") and Jim Belushi are probably spinning in their graves and ashamed of how this show has declined. Just saw a clip of Tina Fey (get a life Tina) again doing the Sarah Palin thing. Geez, talk about crap. I guess she has exhausted all her brain power on that stuff. No, I don't watch the show anymore because it's crap. I think their ratings reflect their decline into crap-town. I also won't go see any movie she's in or tune into any tv show she does. I think the "Tina Fey is a genius" thing is also crap. Tina, move on and come up with something that's remotely funny.
- What a beautiful weekend. God blessed us with good weather and we sure enjoyed it. Josef's Deli has fired up the Saturday barbeque again (much to our delight) and we LOVE their burgers. Also brought home some wonderful Italian sausage we had for lunch today. UMMMMMMMMM good.
- Good weather means long walks with the dogs. Enough said--always good.
- We enjoyed watching Phil Mickelson win the green jacket at the Masters' Tournament today. Good job Phil. He played a charmed tournament. Wow, love that lefty!
- Hurray for the return of THE TUDORS tonight on Showtime. Even though you know how it's going to end it's a fab experience watching this wonderfully staged production and enjoying scenic Ireland where it's filmed. Hopefully we'll get back there sometime again and see more of the country side.
- Watched a Patricia Cornwell made for tv thing last night called "Risk." Geez, couldn't have had any worse acting. Bad bad bad. Don't waste your time. She had a cameo fairly soon into the thing but that was the best part. What does that tell you? Don't bother with it.
- Looking forward to Cubs baseball which HAS to get better. Come on guys, it's the beginning of a new season and hope springs eternal. Go Cubs Go!
- Jim Edgar---please go away. Don't you understand that you are past history and clueless as to what the ENTIRE state needs. Maybe in your little Charleston corner of the world you're still a big deal, but you're not anywhere else. Evidence of this is the fact that your hand picked guy, I USED TO BE JIM EDGAR'S CHIEF OF STAFF (aka Kirk Dillard) LOST and is not the candidate for governor. Nobody cares about you anymore. Go away. Take a clue from Jim Thompson who has gracefully shown the role an ex-governor should have. Jim Edgar--you're starting to be more like Blago--an attention hog. Please fade away into retirement, unless you want Republicans to lose--and if you do then really, GO AWAY.
- Cong. Bill Foster has been going around his district telling us all how much his wisdom and judgment is SO MUCH better than anything us lowly people might have. He's also had his lackeys writing letters to local newspapers telling everyone how smart and courageous Bill was in voting for the health care sham legislation. Geez, little did we know that Foster is so much superior to us and we should just sit back and let him and Pelosi and Durbin lead us (over the cliff) and just sit back and take it. I DON'T THINK SO. Foster, get prepared for your coming loss. You do not speak for us--you are not smarter than us--and you did not vote your district and have never voted your district. You will soon be out of a job, so get ready.
