The Oscar Goes to.... Boobies!/MKWW

It is easy to say that Seth MacFarlane was Not the Best Host, ever, but equally hard to say he was the Worst Host ever. I am not the audience they were going after with his selection, however to say I did not laugh would be incorrect.  I even laughed at the 7th grade boy humor of the Boobies Song and loved the sock puppets.  MacFarlane is certainly likable, but a lot of his humor is more palatable when coming out of the mouth of Stewie or Ted rather than IN YOUR FACE at the Oscars. Not as bad as Gervaise (who I also think is funny) He certainly pulled off the musical numbers, which I really enjoyed. I wish we could resurrect Bob Hope, he was sly, funny, topical and I don't think anyone came away from the event mad or insulted by him.

Magic Spell \ Write on Edge/Trifecta

Magic Spell-Forever Arts

Feigning a headache; Ariadne sent regrets to Grandfather about missing the evening meal. Dismissing Tilde, she worked alone in her chamber, gathering the elements needed for her spell. The evening is warm, fearing that Grandfather’s allies and cronies might be about the courtyard below, she moved to close the window.

Call Me....Maybe Not-Saturday 9

 
1) Do you owe anyone a phone call?
I always owe someone a call so the answer is Yes.  I don't really like the phone.
2) Do you still have a landline phone?
Yes, although I am thinking of giving it up.  The taxes are almost as much as the initial bill.

I’m surprised to hear you say that I am coughing very badly, because I have been practicing all night.” John Philpot Curran


http://www.reinventingtheordinary.com/
Well I am down but not yet out, However, I may be losing the Cold War.  Somewhere, I picked up a bug not unlike the monster above.  I am coughing, choking and sneezing a storm.  The mucus family has taken up residence in my body and
is sending invitations to the housewarming.  Gwennie is delighted as there are tissues to rip apart in waste baskets that she can reach with her long pointy muzzle. Totem has discovered that I am not a comfortable lap to sit on or snuggle with and jumps off my lap or the bed in disgust. Mr BC has learned that I don't find him as funny when I don't feel good and the guest bedroom is the place to be when I start hacking in the middle of the night. He decided to start out there tonight.  I am a fuzzy purple footed flu monster. The problem is that even though I will be feeling better in a week, my sleep and that of the rest of the family will be disturbed until Spring.

Hair Bands and More-Saturday9


1) Do you have a favorite "hair metal band?
I had to look up what a Hair Metal Band is, and I recognized some names on the list.  The 80's was my DD's time but I did hear the music by default when we were in the car. I would have to say Van Halen although, I have a special spot for Queen.
