Randy Newman...Ellen Degeneres opening the show?

Didn't see a thread so here's one to yakk on.

Horrible editing. You could hear what the celebs were saying before and after their little speeches. It was insulting to those who died and those who have been trying to help them. I gather it was live, but that's not an excuse for not doing a better job.

[lainie]

yew.

[Cheapskate]

i think Destiny's Child is on

[olde north church]

yeah, i got schooled.

Why didn't they get Midnight Oil to rock with Beds are Burning?

[Northern Yankee]

Hey Mozie...

Our school District has our first New Orleans family enrolled.

[Cricket24]

Oh Heck...you're younger than I am!! (I am 51)

[ATOMIC_PUNK]

Wonder how many of them "CAME BY WAY OF BUS" ?

Did they get something to "EAT AND DRINK" before they showed up ?

I'm watching a dvd shot in Iraq by some of our "BRAVE MARINES " tonight to hell with hollywood !

[cajungirl]

Look like Baby Doll pajamas from the fifties!

[strange1]

chris rock just said, "George Bush hates midgets!"

Leave it to Chris, I heard him say it too, I had to chuckle. Chris has that Dennis Miller dry humor I like.

[sfimom]

I'm da baby gotta love me!

[LibertyRocks]

I thought it was rather un-professional myself as well.

[olde north church]

Yeah, as if he's the first person top pad a resume! It's not like he plagiarized!

[Lovergirl]

On my digital cable 32 CHANNELS ARE RUNNING THE SAME CONCERT. I don't want to pay for that garbage.

[nicmarlo]

I love watching the guy act...he's very good.

The movie's called "As Good As It Gets" (1997).

(There are gays in the movie, in case you want to screen it first with children...)

My daughter was at her son's school and they had a little girl from Slidell. About 8 years old. Daughter talked to her a few minutes and she said she didn't know anyone. My daughter said her eyes told the story,,they just haunted her, so sad. Made her cry.

I’m not sure what that means or how to take your comments but the approximation of your laptop to your “lap” could be construed as being somewhat provocative (LMAOROTF)

[nicmarlo]

Yes, they're very pretty ladies...my daughters got me to liking them...you know how that is...they play it over and over and over...and you either go nuts or it grows on you....I decided the latter was the better route. : )

[eddie willers]
