Random Musings

Wow, Valentine's Day, AKA Made-up Holiday. 
I hate when the world makes you feel like you must be in love, and you must say 'I love you,' and you must buy the card, the candy, the flowers, the dinner.....
Carlos and i do that every day, so we get to take today off.

Now, let's start with some funny, and by funny I mean that Idiot Known As Donald Trump getting smacked down .......again:


What's the deal with the beautiful Billy Brown?
Last season he became the new cop on Dexter and then he was killed off this season.
Then, I find him on The Following a couple of weeks back and a week or so ago he gets stabbed in the neck and dies.
Can't someone hire him to play a character that lives?
Is that asking too much?
Jeanne Manford, the founder of PFLAG who died last month at the age of 92 [read my post HERE] will be awarded the 2012 Presidential Citizens Medal, the nation’s second-highest civilian honor, in a ceremony on February 15.
President Obama said, via press release: "It is my distinguished honor to award these individuals the 2012 Citizens Medal for their commitment to public service. Their selflessness and courage inspire us all to look for opportunities to better serve our communities and our country."
A quite deserving honor for an amazing woman.
Now, onto anoth'a moth'a ..... Cissy Houston.
She apparently was mighty pissed off that Clive Davis would throw his annual pre-Grammy party this year after her daughter Whitney died last year just before the party.
She called it the epitome of bad taste, and yet ....
She's all over TV the anniversary of Whitney's death hawking the book she 'wrote' about her daughter and her struggles with drugs and their really-not-so-good relationship.
What's good for the goose, Cissy....
Take your own advice and stop talking.
So, we all know I am an awards show whore, and one of the reasons happens to be married to The Good Wife star Julianna Margulies.
Her husband, Keith Lieberthal is one of the most beautiful men ever, and even a brief glimpse of him on the red carpet, or sitting by her side, warrants a DVR playback, stop and pause. He’s the kind of guy who's so gorgeous, that if you saw him in public, you'd stop, look back at him, while pretending to look at something else so your husband doesn't get jealous--and we all know who I mean by that--and the just stare.
Seriously. Even now I can't stop staring.
Plus, he's also a Harvard educated lawyer. Hot, smart and straight.
Two outta three ain't bad.
That FauxNews, they really know how to fact check over there.
In one of their stories about the importance of, um, opposite-sex marriage, they posted a lovely photo of a bride and groom atop the Empire State Building, but had they taken a nanosecond to check out the photo--who's to say it's even a real photo?--they might have learned that the lovely couple is Stephanie Figarelle and Lela McArthur, the first same-sex couple to get married at the Empire State Building.
So in the last  season of Desperate Housewives Max and Charles Carver played the Scavo twins, Preston and Porter. They were 'cute' but, yeah, that was about it.
Now, that's them, back in Teen Wolf and I'm thinking, had they looked like that on the DH those housewives would have had something else to be desperate about.
M'kay.
So, Marco Rubio, rising GOP star. 
You were given the plum assignment of giving to Republican response to President Obama's State of the Union message and yet all anyone remembers is how thirsty you were.
Way to represent.
No, seriously, you totally represented the GOP and their position.
On water.
Vladimir Uruimagov, coach of a London 2012 gold medal-winner, says gay rights activists with a vendetta against masculinity are behind plans to cut wrestling from the Olympic program:
“If they expel wrestling now, that means that gays will soon run the whole world.”
Um, Vlad? If The Gays are gonna run the whole world dontcha think we’d wanna watch sweaty men in tight-fitting onesies wrestle?
Just sayin’.
And now, the Tweet of the Week, in response to the Pope deciding it was 'just too hard':

  1. Valentine's Day at the Ponders - Daughter and The Engineer have horrible colds and I've been chasing down checks I wrote on a misprinted check order. ALWAYS check every inch of new checks. (And yes, I should try not to be a Luddite and learn to pay online but I fear sunspots, passing asteroids and hackers)

  4. Really enjoyed the Bill Maher clip. I wish I had HBO, I miss his show. I used to wrestle in high school, had to quit. Too many hard ons at inappropriate times.
