If I told you.......

Mayo, mustard (try a little regular grey poupon it adds a little kick to them), paparika, salt, sometimes chopped onions, depending on my mood. I think that's it.....

Ok, this is the deal. I think Bruce Springsteen was in NYC. There are candles all over the place. It's very quiet. Actually classy. Bruce sang an song about a City In Ruins. Then Tom Hank came out and said some stuff, and now it's Stevie Wonder in Los Angeles. Again it's a closed studio with lots of candles. He wrote the song for this occasion. It's actually very good.

When do I get to be catty? So far this is nice. I was expecting a big stage and gross people. Maybe they are keeping that for the finale.

I'm so sick of the "holythanthou-wood" elite. Ohhh what a big deal that hollywood is having extra security for their little studios. Yes I'm sure that the terrorist are out after their little arses. I'm afraid I can't watch this "puke" from the lips of some of the largest demeanors of America...our military (God Bless Them!)...and MY PRESIDENT...Thank God for President Bush!!!

I don't trust celebrities. Where are the donations going? An d when? After they all get paid to show up? "Generously volunteering their time" may be so much you-know-what. They -- and their agents-- have contracts that run to hundreds of pages, I believe, and may specify amounts they charge for showing up for "free" charity events.

Remember that fellow who paid for a fund-raising event for the DNC? He paid for the hall, decorations, tv cameras, celebrities, the whole ball of wax, then as I recall, he wrote the costs off as a donation or an expense. Something like that.

None of these schmuckfaces makes a move without getting paid.

[WIMom]

They are doing it to get you to watch, then wham! It will be too late to flip to another channel and watch the movie. You know the sheeple mentality......

[WIMom]

But, it is fun trashing them........

[PoisedWoman]

Thanks. Haven't made them in years and forgot Grey Poupon sounds great. Maybe a little pickle relish too, huh?

[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

Now it's George Clooney, face shaved, hair dyed dark, talking about some of the firemen who are heroes and giving the phone number to donate.

Working the phone banks, Antonio Banderas, Whoopie, Selma Hyack, Jack Nicholson, Happy Gilmore ( I can't think of his name right now), Halle Berry. I mean BIG STARS.

U2 from london. It's in black and white for him. This is all done in closed studios. No audience.

[nancetc]

LOL yes it is...like the creeps in London right now...where is Denyce Graves I'd listen to her sing American Anthem.

[WIMom]

Hey, pickle relish sounds good. I becamed hooked on grey poupon. I use it in lots of my pasta dishes. It just adds a little omph.

[WIMom]

Whoopie, now, there's a piece of work. Does she still have dreadlocks?

[nancetc]

Ali may have been a great boxer...but he is not the greatest hero.

[nancetc]

Ali may have been a great boxer...but he is not the greatest hero.

[nancetc]

Ali may have been a great boxer...but he is not the greatest hero.

[fightu4it]

If these liberal bastards, who at any other time loathe our military, want to get together and raise money for the victims in New York then let them.

None of my money will ever filter through such a group of self-centered idiots.

Who's hosting, Bill Marh?

[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

A video of Muslim kids telling us that they aren't terrorists.

Now Will Smith with Mohammad Ali, who, bless is heart, doesn't look well. Ali is telling is that Muslims are not terrorists.

[nancetc]

Well I didn't mean to say that 3 times...so sorry Guild...something wrong with my button LOL

[WIMom]

Have you been noticing all the double posts today? What's up with that? Anyone?

[WIMom]

It's not you.....
