Thus have the mighty(ies) fallen ;)

A very tired affair. Everybody looks bored. There's no electricity in the air. Crystal has been only passably funny. The honorees, including Blake Edwards, and the tributes to Hope and Hepburn, have been only tepidly received. And what appears to be (based on voting trends so far) the inevitable march to best director for Jackson and best picture to LOTR:ROTK has all the excitement of watching paint dry.

Lisa...I've had to change my underwear three times already!! Thank God I just did my laundry. :)

LOL Touche'

[mabelkitty]

YES!

(CHICKEN FINGERS ON FOREHEAD) THIS SUCKS! I WANT KENTUCKY FRIED CHICKEN!


Loved that movie!

[NewRomeTacitus]

Allright allready, I regret "bringing it up".

[DoughtyOne]

[bray]

That reminds me, Sea Biscuit deserves best actress!

Pray for W and The Passion's of The Christ

[newzjunkey]

That skank Julia Roberts did the Hepburn tribute? Poor Kate, she deserved so much more.

I won't ever forget the incredulous look on his face when I told him that I just *had* to get his autograph for a female fan from FR --

Was he incredulous because it wasn't for you? Perhaps you mistook disappointment for incredulousness (is that a word?).

I even told him your screen name and that he should look at your posts! :D

You never told me that!!!! Now I'm a lovely scarlet color!

[Lil'freeper]

wowzers- that's a great color red!

[al baby]

Never need a excuse to post this

[NYC GOP Chick]

oohh, may want to wait on lunch till after you leave the seaport, huh? :)

Nah, I'll have lunch at the food court inside. :)

I'll say an extra little prayer for ya tomorrow regarding the job!! If you care to e-mail me any info., a good friend of mine owns a placement agency in midtown. Ya never know, could help?? Good luck with tomorrow, though!

Thank you very much! Maybe someday I'll take you up on that, but I doubt your friend (or any agency) handles my current field -- personal training. I had a very good interview at an upscale gym the other day and am supposed to call tomorrow.

Lisa...I've had to change my underwear three times already!! Thank God I just did my laundry. :)

I sure hope you're a woman.

[Warren_Piece]

I fell in love with her in 'While you were sleeping'. Yeah, it's a chick flick. I like chicks.

[lizma]

"ay"

I Like it. Grew up in a Scottish enclave near Chicago. I love the accent. Reminds me of being a kid.

[mass55th]

"She looks like the wicked witch of the west."

She actually played a witch with Bette Midler in a Disney movie. She was a natural.

[BigWaveBetty]

that Hellary?

Yep!

[NYC GOP Chick]

Thanks for the trivia info! :)
