"What? Are you saying you want to get buck naked and wrestle," - Sean Wayans, "Scary Movie"
It's been raining like hell all week in Austin, giving me a taste of what it must be like to live in the Northwest for much of the time. I've been getting stir crazy from the moisture, but let's hope the weekend outlook stays drier and in the meantime, let's examine some hard-hitting stories like:
Alec Baldwin, who called his 11-year-old daughter a "thoughtless little pig" in a phone message, announced plans to write a book about "parental alienation" this week. 
The actor said it will be a message to all the "swine, err women out there who tell their daughters not answer the phone." At least Baldwin didn't go to rehab following the debacle like most celebrities seem to these days.
Courtney Love is set to auction her late husband, Kurt Cobain's things very soon with the exception of a few things for her daughter including "a sweater, a guitar and the lyrics to `(Smells Like) Teen Spirit.'" 
Asked why she was selling Cobain's stuff, Love replied that "cosmetic surgery and lipo doesn't come cheap." When a reporter pointed out that lipo could fall under the category of cosmetic surgery, Love called him a "know-it-all asshole" and stormed off.
Danny DeVito has launched a signature line of the citrus-flavored liqueur that reportedly fueled his seemingly drunken appearance on The View back in November.
The new drink will taste like lemonade mixed with DeVito's after-shave, but it will help you make it through an episode of "The View."
It's over for Gisele Bundchen and Victoria's Secret as the lingerie brand's CEO, Edward Razek, said Tuesday that "We wish her all the best and thank her for her extraordinary work. She will continue to be a very visible part of the world's sexiest brand through the remainder of the year."
Bundchen will also continue to hold a place in my fantasy file for much longer than a year. Much, much longer.
Mel B is taking ex-lover Eddie Murphy to court to make him take a paternity test to prove that Murphy is the father of her one-month-old daughter Angel Iris.
I bet Murphy is wishing that he would have taken up with a Spice Girl who wasn't known as "Scary."
But let's leave scary stuff behind, and end with a nice image like:
Let's hope everybody's cars are running well, and if you're in need & have special issues like this woman, please call me and . . . Happy Friday!
-BDS
Courtney Love should NOT be wearing a bikini!!
I didn't know Eddie Murphy dated Scary spice. One of my fave movies is "trading places". If he is the father of the baby, at least he can afford it.
Have a great weekend!! It's friday, yay!!!
That is a perfect photo of Eddie Murphy. The look on his face is priceless. You can almost see the thought bubble saying "Ya I nailed. So what, the kid ain't mine. I wore a rubber."
While that pic of Scary Spice with her desperate "please don't forget about me" smile is great too.
Carmel - Courtney loves wearing very tiny bikinis as of late, and "dated" is used loosely with Murphy. But "Trading Places" is a classic.
WhatIGot - Ha. YOu're right as it tells the story pretty well without any words at all.
Trading Places is my all time favorite movie.
And to add to yesterday's post....
I love to say,
IT WAS THE DUKE'S! IT WAS THE DUKE'S.
Happy Friday!
That last picture was very funny. Hope your weather clears and at least in my part of the Northwest we don't get much rain, which always surprises people.
I agree that Courtney Love shouldn't be wearing a bikini. I would suggest instead of lipo she try a tummy tuck.
Wish me luck on the Derby there's a lot of horses I really like (hopefully I'll leave with my underwear Ha!!) & Happy Friday !!!!
Anonymous Boxer - It's a classic no doubt - love the gorilla & Jamie Lee Curtis as well. And blaming anything on Dukes is always a good idea.
Sarcastic - That does surprise me a little, but I work with a guy out of the WA area, who says the same thing. And yes, Love should have sprung for the tuck to handle the excess skin.
Nobich - Good luck and pick the right horses AND leave with your underwear intact (the last part being a standard I always try to employ at the track or virtually anywhere else).
I read the word "moisture" and cringed LMAO. The word moist gives me the heebeegeebees. Much like the word panties ughhhh.
Then I'm sure the combination of the two would send you over the edge. Ha. Sorry, but that was too easy.
This weather does suck and the humidity is pissing me off big time.
Happy Friday!
Then Miss Ash would not like a local morning show here where they have a contest to say the word "panties" haha
AHHH OK I was all prepared to comment on most of the post and then I saw that last pic and busted out laughin. I can only imagine what would happen if the car happened to roll forward LOL
Rain quit now it's just HUMID! ARGGHHH! Happy Friday...
Jlee - The weather is still suckin' today, but at least it's Friday, eh? Small favors & panties is a funny word.
Honeylibra - That's why she should have called me - to prevent any kind of damage like that from happening to that sturdy chest. Ha.
Symplyamused - I'm wishing right alongside you on that one. Happy Friday.
Courtney Love looks like a big pile of Ewwwww!!
I'm so sick of hearing about Eddie and Scary. I wish they would hurry up and get this over with. As far as I'm concerned I could care less because they are both "has been's" to me.
Hey Miss Ash. If you don't like 'moist' don't watch this.
Trina - I agree on both accts, but I am curious what Murphy will say when DNA confirms that the's the dad. I want to see that statement.
Malnurtured Snay - I often wondered just how much more productive I would be if that happened for a month. So, you're welcome. Ha.
WhatIgot - That's funny, and I can't imagine that will go over well either.
that last pic is great. I am either worried that the car may fall down and flatten them, or I am impressed that they serve as a portable jack device!
One would be a comedy & the other a tragedy in my book. A true tragedy.
