Storm's a Comin'!

Brrrr! Gotta get all bundled up this weekend for the snow! Maybe the storm will even help facilitate a little romance... Weather service says we could get 6-10 inches in this area--that's SNOW, I'm talking about!

My Quest to Join the Illuminati: Steps 13-15

Almost made it through my little Illuminati checklist. After these 3, only 3 more to go!

13) Have all your outward appearances be that of a decent, moral and upstanding citizen. 

Oh, sister, I already have them ALL fooled! Done.

14) Openly become a member of the Christian clergy while secretly holding some occult practice. 

Easy one. I was ordained as an interfaith minister several months ago--and most people think I just do weddings (how sweet, right?) But most don't realize that I also get my ju-ju on and bang my shaman drums! I can shape-shift with the best of 'em!

15) Create a network of connections that form a hierarchy. 

Hmmm--does my experience with Amway count? Yes--it's true. I was once in Amway (hangs head in shame). BUT, it's all about schemes called "pyramids" and hierarchies--so I can totally do this Illuminati gig.

The "Real" iPad!

The comedic geniuses over at MADtv must be high-fiving each other right now, thanks to this video they did a while back--well before the brand-new Apple iPad was a real product. Actually, I think the name is fine, but lots of folks are already snickering, if the buzz on Facebook and my local radio station are any indication.

I just about spewed my coffee over "vaginal firewall protection!" Hilarious, brilliant.

"Ugly Betty" Cancelled---Now Even MORE Reasons for Me to Be Grumpy!

"Since when are we the last ones to know the juicy gossip?!"

Once again, one of my favorite shows is cancelled. I don't understand why people didn't watch "Ugly Betty." It was creative in so many ways, you never knew what was going to happen, the acting and writing were great; it was witty and smart, and it had REAL family values as opposed to other shows that supposedly promote such things but which are so screechingly awful that I want to poke my eyes out. What show incorporated so many actors of varying ages, from teens to senior adults? What show included such contemporary story lines without seeming preachy or contrived? Most of all, what show reveled in its overall gayness without being political about it?

This is worse than when Henry got that other girl pregnant!

 Some story lines had struggled recently, but I had hopes for this current season, which I thought was off to a very satisfying start. I mean, I almost literally cried when Matt and Betty broke up the other week! (I'm sure that didn't have anything to do with my own relationship, but whatever...)

Oh, you know Hilda is NOT happy about this! 

 "Ugly Betty" has always been a wonderful breath of fresh air. I love all the characters, which were so multi-dimensional, unlike so many other shows where the bad girl is always unrealistically bad and the good girl is always so mind-numbingly perfect. How dull. But on "Ugly Betty," you both love AND hate Wilhelmina. You cheer when Amanda is daffy AND when she's surprisingly smart. You love it when Marc is Queen Bitch and when he's Mr. Softie. Of course, you love it when Betty completely screws up and when she saves the day.

"I want to know who's responsible for this fiasco!" 

Meanwhile, complete crap like "The Biggest Loser" and "Jersey Shore" soar to ratings Heaven (I'm not even including links!). Sure, maybe "Loser" is inspirational for some, but it's all so voyeuristic. I fully support people getting healthy, but I don't consider it entertaining to watch it happen. In fact, I think a lot of people watch that show only so they can say, "Well, at least I'm not THAT fat." And that is sad.

And we were just getting to know the scrumptious Adam Rodriguez--damn! 

So--here's to "Ugly Betty!" I hope they pull out all the stops for this final season--and ABC will lose one more viewer...
