I am unaccountably frightened by the enrollment of martinfoyle2. an evil twin? an imposter? or just a wannabe? only time will tell.

I saw some Mexican wrestler fridge magnets at the Warhol Museum gift shop in Pittsburgh a few years ago and am kicking myself that I did not pick them up.

Moody, actually martinfoyle2 is just because a very nice Irish guy named martinfoyle accidentally disabled his own password and was trying to get back in again. No craziness or anything. :)

That is one wildass mousepad WSS.

The arrival of the mousepad prompted me to do a little Google for the fridge magnets, and here they are, in all their glory.

You know it's the holiday season when CNN makes sure the front page of their website has dead bodies on it. I know it's an important story, just wish they didn't use those photos.

I know. I told her that I wouldn't pee on Mariah if she was on fire but it didn't change her mind about playing the cd.

That's a good call since neither of them will be providing a commentary track for the deluxe edition of Walking With The Dinosaurs although, to be fair, Jessica doesn't have that same slank meat (credit Noiseradio) thing going for her like ol' jizz jar Mariah.

no, she wins. there is celine dion embarrassment and ashlee simpson comedy on the rise and whitney houston pop chaos, but mariah wins vapidity. cluelessly.

I never thought I would ever spend $60 on an item called "The Rat Palace" that wasn't an ironically named book or record or film....
