People who say "we" when they mean "I," as in "ok, we'll get back to you" or "we'll get right on that."

Arggh.

Wide Stance's Predecessor


Sen. Larry Craig (R-Idaho) was arrested in June for lewd conduct in a Minnesota public restroom (police report is here.) His explanation for the bahavior the policeman (plainclothed in the next stall over) interpreted as trying to pick him up, such as putting his foot and hand under the barrier between the stalls, was that he has a "wide stance" when going to the bathroom. {Sideshow Bob shudder}

mmmmm, meat

The latest in my and Lauren's 'go to restaurants we've never been to before' tour of Los Angeles. Tonight was Lawry's -- Lauren's treat since she lost a bet on a matter of utmost importance.



Know why I love Lawry's? Free homemade potato chips (and meatballs although I didn't partake) in the little waiting room.



Them are goooooood.



Yeah, prime rib!



Perhaps the best part of the evening though was the imposters table. Literally, all at one table, was the doppelgangers of George W Bush, Ellen Degeneres, Keanu Reeves and a 4th nobody. Tried to get a picture but didn't want to be too obvious.

Random



I accidentally clicked on this video so thought it was a sign. and mmmm the shrimp looks gooood, yo!

More of the invasion

Now they are trying to win us over with their sultry music.

Apparently the Brazilian navy invaded the Inner Harbor overnight. Here they are flying their victory colors and loading their pillaged booty.

Not for the faint of heart

Report: David Gest Wants to Wash Down Some Winehouse

Liza Minnelli’s ex-husband David Gest has reportedly expressed his longing to “lick” British punk princess Amy Winehouse “all over."
“I love that beehive she wears, I love her tattoos, I'd lick her toes,” he said in an interview with the Orange Playlist. “I'm in love with Amy Winehouse, I'd like to lick the inside of her hair, you'd probably find KFC stuck in it!”
Describing her as the “cat's meow”, Gest gushed about his “good tongue” and his goal to place it between the gap of Winehouse’s famed missing tooth.

Bartlett

Last night at Melinda and Johan's freakin fantastic wedding, we, aka the cool kids, were at the Bartlett table (also known as Table #6.) Someone wisely pointed out that all the tables were named for different kinds of pears, which was a theme of the wedding (e.g. Melinda and Johan make a "perfect pair" (pear.) )

So I wondered, what the hell is a Bartlett pear anyway? See the yellow variety for yourself below.

Hot.
