You Know Not!

I was privileged(??) to watch the news this morning while waiting for my son;s surgery to be over, and I happened to catch a bit of Robin & Company. I caught a snippet of a story on birth control in middle schools, and I was shocked to discover that 48% of the people who called to vote thought that was a good idea. Only 52% said no.

Hello? Middle school is grades 6-7-8. Kids that age are as emotionally equipped for sex as they are for job searches and mortgages! Duh!! I’m hoping that the vote was so messed up because most parental type units were at work, and only kids were home to call. Because really, folks who would vote that way need to get a clue. And they also need to get a job working with troubled not-even-teens who’ve been turned onto sex way too early.

Just NO! I read with great shock that Al Bore has received a Nobel Peace Prize. For making a movie, and driving a golf cart at Cannes. Hmm, maybe shaving a couple bucks off his quadruple figure utility bill had some thing to do with it as well. Please pass the barf bag, I am going to be ill.

No, that’s not a typo. It was intentional.

Talking about the drink, not the song, guys. I admit that I am not a big drinker, but I am not a teetotaler. By no means do I pretend to be all up on the trends in alcoholic beverages, but I was very surprised today to find out that The Tequila Guy recommends tequila as a sipping beverage”. He calls it the “tequila renaissance”, and suggests the agave tequilas served neat. I’d never even considered tequila as a stand alone drink, though I have enjoyed my share of Tequila Sunrises, and you would not have to twist my arm to put a peach margarita into my hand.

And did you know that there are over 700 different tequilas? Yeah, me either.

for CSI, It’s almost ti-i-ime for CSI. It’s Thursday, you see, and pretty soon the girls and I will start singing that. And when we sing it, we do it all up in our noses so we sound like the chipmunks. Yes, this is how we amuse ourselves. Got a problem with that?

Do you like to gossip? I’ve occasionally *cough, cough* used this space to dish some dirt. Not all the time, but now and again. You know. Or You Know NOT! as the case may be. But my gossiping abilities pale next to Gossip Girl. Gossip Girl is a bare all kind a girl, a tell everything girl, a girl in the know. She’s got the inside scoop, and she’s double dipping for your viewing pleasure.

See this Gossip Girl on The CW preview?

Wait a minute, back up. Let’s start at the beginning, and not get ahead of ourselves. There’s a new show on CW, and it’s called Gossip Girl. Gossip Girl is an anonyblogger, and she blogs about a group of friends, generally causing a ruckus. The thing is, we don’t know the identity of Gossip Girl and neither does the group of friends.

The show is based on the novels of Cecily von Ziegesa, which I will definitely have to investigate further. Perhaps if I “read ahead” far enough and fast enough, I can figure out who she is. Unless it’s a him. It could be a him. Hmmmmm.
