Seems Katie Couric has lost some of her sang-froid. The perky "Today" show host just cut short her vacation near St. Tropez, where she was staying in a $25,000-a-week oceanfront chateau.

"She just couldn't take the heat," says a friend. "And the air conditioning wasn't the greatest."

Ick. Where's the barf alert?

[dyed_in_the_wool]

Where did her colon go?

Awwwwwwwwww Pooooor Baby.

Couric, representing NBC:
"We (at NBC) all hope and pray that Saddam escaped harm, and hopefully fled to Syria."

Katie: I'm melting!!!

[bullseye1911]

"Oh, what a world, what a world!!!"

[FlyVet]

This is horrible. I don't know how she stood it.

[doosee]

Couric's rep says she hasn't decided on her vacation plans for next summer.

My guess is she purposely chose France due to her leftist and anti-Bush leanings. What better way to prove her own beliefs.

Watta shame she escaped an air-conditioned TV studio for an oceanfront hovel.

"Gosh, Toto, I don't think we're in Kansas anymore."

Downtown Baghdad hotels have some nice suites available, I hear.

If they were up her ... she'd know ...

"My guess is she purposely chose France due to her leftist and anti-Bush leanings. What better way to prove her own beliefs. "

What she may not have known is that Provence, the entire southern part of France really, is quite conservative politcally and socially.

Very different from the large northern cities.

It's the only part of France where I'd consider buying a chateau.

That's why she relates to the ordinary person-she's just like the rest of us...

[auboy]

I hear it's quite hot in hell, too.

[demkicker]

Oh boy, I can't wait for her to lecture everyone about how much worse global warming has become, thanks to the U.S.

[woofie]

I drove over to St Tropez while over there this summer (before the heat wave got so bad)I dont understand whats the big deal about that place.....

[auboy]

It will not be long.

If it's bad, it must be America's fault. Ever since that evil George Bush "stole" the election, America's been ruining the planet. Someone, quick, bring back the Clintons. [end sarcasm]

I dont understand whats the big deal about that place.....

Liberal democrats love anyplace where they can rub elbows with other bottled-water swigging America-haters. They also like the fact that they don't have to hang out with blacks or latinos there.
