(Weiner, Trial, Floods) to CRAP.
Isn't this the Judge Judy set?
Lines of people who are being referred to as "fans" of the trial are fighting for spots to sit in the proceedings. What really puts this over the top is the cheerful faces and people saying things like "I can't miss an episode of this. OK, is any one else finding this creepy.
THIS ISN'T A SOAP OPERA OR A REALITY SHOW !!!! REALLY, FOLKS, THIS IS A REAL TRIAL.... DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND THAT????
Just to get a sense of how weird this is getting this is one of the many clips of the lines. I can't actually post the videos at they are not available for reposting but they do allow us to link them. So you can CLICK HERE
The Immaculate Intoxication
Lindsay Lohan is back in the news today. You thought you had a 120 days of a reprieve while she was serving "time" in the Malibu Beach prison...er...home, didn't you??? Well, not so fast. She has been a busy,busy girl. She had a roof top party, that she was quick to point out wasn't really a party. No, no...it was a Barbecue. Then she shot a commercial for Beezid Auction for reportedly somewhere north of $25,000 dollars plus another $10,000 in ecommerce credit. Not bad money while serving time in the joint, huh?
But, then the news breaks....there is an IMMACULATE INTOXICATION. That's right. She is saying that none of her party friends brought in any booze, she has had no alcohol in the house and one of her mandated tox screens shows poor maligned Lindsay has alcohol in her system. It must be a miracle.
This morning (as I am writing this on Thursday) our little convict is back before the same judge that sentenced her to her beachy abode to serve out her 120 days. AND this is what the judge had to say....Lindsay can't have more than one friend at a time to her house but that does not apply to family members. This means no more parties. She is to have no more tox screens, so she is free to drink but can't drive. Pleeeassseeee...is this really even a punishment??? None of us is supposed to drink and drive and we aren't even under house arrest. (I'm not at least...hopefully, you aren't)
Does an age difference in Hollywood make a difference?
Last week we had the big breakup news of Crystal Harris from Hugh Hefner. How unexpected that a 25 year old would back out of a wedding with an 85 year old. Such a heartbreak ending of a relationship that fairy tales are made of, but never fear my romantic-minded cyber friends, we have another "true love" story.
Doug Hutchinson, age 51, best known for his roles as a guard in the movie Green Mile, as well as roles on Lost and the X-Files, has taken a new bride.
Doug's new wife is sixteen year old Courtney Alexis Stodden. Courtney is a former beauty pageant queen that ran in Miss Teen Washington USA last year and has been trying to break into a career as a pop star.
Courtney's parents say they are pleased with this union. Her dad says he is so happy that his daughter has a man like this behind his daughter. OK, Dad, time to shut up....really...don't talk.
I guess that Courtney didn't realize Hugh is available again.
Flying First Crass
The San Francisco Chronicle reports a story and picture this week of a traveler on a June 9th flight. This traveler was boarded on a flight leaving San Francisco six days prior to the arrest of DeShon Marman. DeShon was arrested on a US Airways flight for refusing to pull up his pants. Seems the pants...well technically his pajama bottoms were "inappropriately" low on his body.
A spokesman for US Airways, told the Chronicle that they have a dress policy. The policy states that clothing has to cover your private parts. In DeShon's case they believe that his pants were leaving "parts of his parts" in plain view. DeShon did not take this critique of his wardrobe well and made quite a ruckus. He supposedly, injured an officer while being taken into custody.
Now word comes out compete with pictorial backup that 6 days prior to DeShon's fashion woes we have a gentleman (and I use that word loosely) who was boarded, seated and flew out on a US Airways flight. This picture was taken by a fellow passenger, Jill Tarow. (I wonder if she has a blog?)
NOTE: This is the kind of person, that I would get seated next to had I been on that flight. I'm lucky like that.
One more for the day...
My Home is Away from Home
Last week, police in Dundalk, Ontario, a community located north of Toronto, had a man from Brampton, file a report that someone stole his home. He claimed that he came home to his $30,000, 1000 sq. ft. home and it was missing.
It didn't take police long to find the missing house. It was resting comfortably 10 kilometers north on a plot of land in Proton Station, Ontario.
A 43 year old Southgate man has been charged with the theft. He tried proving the home was his with documents that were proven to be fraudulent.
The Good for the Day.... I wasn't on the US Airways flight and didn't have to sit next to underwear man.
The Bad for the Day....One I was seated on a plane next to a homeless man. The man had been given a ticket to get home to his family. (that part is nice, actually) The bad part was that I had paid for a First Class ticket and the guy had, had an accident....how to put this delicately... a stinky poo accident and I was so nauseated by the smell. I didn't want to say anything though because really...poor guy was in bad shape. So I stuck it out for a 3 hour flight. Oh shit...literally..oh shit.
The Weird for the Day....On Fridays the news round up is weird.
Here is a little diversion for Friday...
