[Maigrey]

You'd think it was a mithril dress, with all that silver.

[LisaMalia]

OK, I've got the butter!

[lainie]

agree to disagree, I guess

[mass55th]

"Hmmm. I've heard of her. Can't place her in a movie though. Comedian, yes?"

She goes back to the Ed Sullivan days. I remember watching her then. I think she made one movie. Something about a man getting pregnant. Not sure if Billy Crystal played opposite her. Joan's been around for years.

[Maigrey]

Yea. Popcorn!

(I ate too much at the movies yesterday, so I'll donate my share to Dog and Hair of the Dog!)

[Dog]

Joan Rivers is not making any sense..

[lainie]

Heh...Reuters says the dress is worth $2.5 million, AP says $25 million

[bootless]

I'm all for an Oscar for Original Screenplay for Finding Nemo. That was really clever and well-done.

[socal_parrot]

Joan Rivers quote...

"I'm happy tonight, I'll be happier tomorrow night and I am very easy to please!"

[Bella]

just a matter of the decimal point..lol

[HairOfTheDog]

Aw..... come on.... she isn't even slurring yet!

Maigrey, thanks for the popcorn!

[hole_n_one]

[Endeavor]

it's those darned decimal points

[lainie]

I cannot imagine any scenario in which I would pay to see that "Starsky and Hutch" movie.

[Dog]

Is that Phil Collins and Don Knotts?

[Laserman]

Who is that in 189?

[al baby]

Heh...Reuters says the dress is worth $2.5 million, AP says $25 million

Clinton says i did not have se oh nevermind

[BigWaveBetty]

"I voted for Sean Penn and Tim Robbins, they're both so dreamy I couldn't make up my mind!"

[lainie]

That's Roger Ebert, can you believe it?
