I love her, but yesterday, here’s the exchange traded between Mrs. Clinton and North Korea:
Mrs. Clinton: “Maybe it’s the mother in me, [but] the experience I’ve had with small children and teenagers and people who are demanding attention: Don’t give it to them.”
North Korea: “We cannot but regard Mrs. Clinton as a funny lady as she likes to utter such rhetoric, unaware of the elementary etiquette in the international community. Sometimes she looks like a primary schoolgirl and sometimes a pensioner going shopping.”
I know North Korea is looney, but how is it a good idea to say that publicly, especially when we’re trying negotiate the return of two American journalists sentenced to 12 years of hard labor? Is this a secret way to get them to show their cards in the nuclear disarmament process? Politicians have to analyze up and down the possible positive and negative effects whatever they say to the press, If she said this out of losing her temper, ugh, I love her, but I’d say no global leader post for you. Here’s the article.
When I see photos of outside a mosque, I wonder how people ever find their shoes.
This quote on CNN about Twilight made me giggle:
Yesterday, my friend’s daughter went to “Harry Potter” as her activity at summer camp, which made my friend and I want to enroll in camp immediately. Her other camp activities include “The Play’s the Thing,” where the kids put on plays or practice theater things all day. This, for some reason, made me flashback to law school camp.
Do you think when Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Billy Crudup were cast in Watchmen there was any awkwardness because they both dated Mary Louis Parker? These are the questions that keep me up at night people. Awkward.
I find it interesting that Oprah has never had kids or adopted. She’s like a bit humanitarian, so you’d think third-world kids would be part of the deal, like her superstar peers Angeline Jolie and Madonna, but I guess not. Maybe she doesn’t feel maternal? Maybe she feels content to give money, work hard, and hang out with Gayle? I’m just curious.
Maybe it was just the ’70s, but every time we visited one of my folks’ friends homes, they have a big bowl (usually like a ginormous crystal one) filled with colorful shrimp chips. I remember one home had the crystal bowl on a stem, placed in a central area of the master bedroom. Other homes had them in dining rooms, and in each of these homes, I couldn’t help but eat the shrimp chips.
Okay, so I really will watch anything, but I do like when people pop and lock. My one complaint of this show, aside from the overscripted puns, is the drunk middle judge known as Mary. If she likes your dance, she just starts screaming. She’ll just go for the high-pitched screech and holds on, till the other judges cover their ears. It’s really awful, and I keep wondering, “When are they going to fire that drunk lady?”
