New season of the girlmore girls!!!

A little dissappointing. Is it because Team Palladino is gone? Maybe. I think the Gilmore Girls has lost a little edge and wit. It's just not quite the same.

Why were Sookie and Michel arm wrestling in the kitchen in the first place? I know they had to get from A(arm wrestling) to E(an excuse to play racquet ball) but come on, it's thin strings.

I am glad they included my favorite la-la song while Lorelai threw her Luke comforter and pillows on the floor.
Also loved the whole rocket, twilight zone, true love thing, I wish someone would give me a rocket.
And very classic-esque scene of the girls playing raquetball without actually playing.
Also love the reference to the "prodigal daugther returns"...I was hoping they were going to reference "Just like Gavin and Gwen"...but that's just me being me.

Speaking of Gwen...what the hell is she wearing in this photo, I am shocked and dissappointed that Gwen thinks this 80s crazy ensemeble will pass as fashion in 2006. I know that can't be Yohji Yamamoto. Shame on you Gwen! (Thank you imnotobsessed.com for the images.)

Lily Allen...where's your tickets?

I got my Lily Allen tickets! A sigh of relief! It's fabulous being over 21...sorry kiddies but I am holding very little sympathy when it comes to this show at the Hiro Ballroom. And in the words of Monique from Save Ferris..."sucks to be under 21." It's 32 days in counting til the fun begins!

poles in the subway/PATH train

Have you ever held on to a railing/pole while in a crowded subway car and had someone's hand slip down and touch your hand. Weren't you so pissed? Or disgusted? I think it's an invasion of personal space.

It's usually those rude people who are reading and don't notice their hand is slipping down the pole and touching your hand. Gross. How would they like it if I dipped my hand in a garbage can or coated it with e coli and slipped my hand down the pole and fell on top of theirs! Hmm.

If you know people like this, please inform them of the personal space invasion and to learn some courtesy manners.

Ash Wentzday, DUI, and Chris Klein's eyes

Sorry but I've got some major celebrity gossip gripes...and it's always problems with the blondes...well and then a Cruise.

1. Ashlee Simpson dumped her band guitarist, Braxton Olita. Not that I would normally care, but he's a Hawaiian homegrown...and that's just uncool! She had it made in the sun with that boy. And the nerve of the girl because she went straight to Fall Out Boy media whore Pete Wentz. WTF?!? And Pete Wentz dumped Michelle Trachtenberg at the drop of the hat when he found out Ashlee left Braxton. WTFF??! I hope Braxton and Michelle get together, fall in love, get married on the beach in Hawaii and send a Christmas card to Ash Wentzday(brilliant name by Perez) with their wedding photo attached.

2. Paris Hilton. If I got stopped by the cops and told them I was busy the past two days working very hard and didn't have a chance to eat all day, that's why I may seem a smidge tipsy, and that I was slightly speeding to get to a restaurant ASAP..I'm sure they'd let me off with a warning and no charge. So it's perfectly normal that the police probably won't charge her and crazies like her will continue to be anorexic, drink like a sailor and maybe next time hit a child on a bike without getting anything more than another warning.

3. Suri Cruise...have you seen her daddy lately, Chris Klein? That's right this conspiracy theory is just as good as the Courtney Love's responsibility for Kurt Cobain's death. Slanted eyes! Not unless Tom's had plastic surgery...those slanted eyes did not come from him or Katie. Suri is Chris Klein's baby. Katie found out she was pregs with Klein's baby after they broke up...Tom Cruise moved in on the opportunity...proposed ASAP so they could cleverly plan out the stalling of the birth. There is no official proof of when Suri was born. We didn't see Suri for months, until now, and she looks like she's much older than claimed. The Vanity Fair cover took 21 days to shoot and 2 days of retouching...because they had to get rid of more Chris Klein features, which they didn't want to reveal.

I'm not hating on Suri Cruise, or Tom (cos that's a whole 'nother conversation), nor Katie for "loving" Tom (yet another long tangent)...but I'm just fed up with the suspicious behavior surrounding the start of their relationship, and the baby secrecy...you give a little in the beginning and you will not be hassled...look at Brad and Angelina or Gwen and Gavin...they gave a little, and they aren't being hounded or accused of being liars. Common sense kids, common sense.

Cape May/Wildwood, NJ

So we went to Cape May, NJ this weekend for a little R&R. And I've got some recommendations if you're in the Cape May/Wildwood area.

1. If you want to see Drew Barrymore's doppelgänger, circa the young hooligan years, drive down the Rio Grande street past the Starlux hotel(taking the picture below made me miss taking a picture of this 10 year old smoker)...you can see her hanging outside of the Subway or the house next door. Twice, on separate occasions, I saw this young drew Barrymore look alike lighting up a cigarette like a pro and spinning a cig around her finger.


2. Do the Original Haunted Cape May Tour because it is so kick @$$! It's all researched real life ghost phenomena...not folklore, legend, rumor, man jumping out of bushes with a halloween mask kind of stuff. Why do people get a kick out of hearing stories about deaths and ghosts haunting their death spot, or ghosts jealous of the living? I don't know, but it's cool. We thought we could see a figure in the window. It gets creepy if you stare at it too long.

3. I do not have a hotel recommendation because I didn't not like staying at the Cliveden Inn Bed & Breakfast (I don't like old antique-ish things, they feel dirty to me, no matter how many times you wash..even the wallpaper made me feel dirty)...but if you plan on staying in Wildwood...kitchy 50s & 60s styled hotels are the way to go....


4. Do not try the Black Duck on Sunset Restaurant in West Cape May...it is very overrated. If you think the food here is fabulous...obviously you've never eaten well in NYC.

5. If you love mini golf as much as me...do not play mini golf in Cape May, esp. at the Stockton Gold at 801 Beach Ave...it's a $14 rip off. Instead go to Shipwreck Island Adventure Golf at 5000 Park Blvd in Wildwood. it looks much better and it's probably worth whatever the cost.

Here are more funny doodles from when I worked at Strasberg to make ya laugh.

VMAs

Although the rumors about Gwen Stefani boycotting the VMA this year are apparently false...I still boycotted watching them live last night, just to support Gwen in rumor spirit. So Instead of supporting MTV with ratings on the spot I took advantage of their long overdue MTV Overdrive: Video on Demand...which finally works on Macs and in Firefox. Woohoo. It's the future of television...watch what you want, when you want...get with the program people. God I sound like a cheesy promoter. But honestly, broadcast television is so passe.

First of all Kelly Clarkson took home the Best Female video award, again. The f@cking nerve! Up against Nelly Furtado, Shakira, Madge and Christina...I loved all those videos(well not exactly Nelly Furtado's cos I don't like her sluttying it up...but that's a whole 'nother side conversation) esp. Shakira's because it was directed by Sophie Muller, the greatest female music video director of all time, and her portrayal of females amazing and righteous. Not to mention, I love Christina's new sound and old fashion glam and Hung Up was a long over due anthem by Madonna. Kelly Clarkson is now on the top of my sh#t list. And i'm not even going to put a picture up for her.

Justin Timberlake can dance...Britney you should feel very unlucky right now because you wound up with a white cracker crapper for a dancer, singer, and soon to be attempted actor. Was so glad Beyonce performed "Ring the Alarm," write that down James Montgomery(He wrote an article summary about the VMAs on the MTV site), "Ring the Alarm" not "Sound the Alarm." If I worked for MTV as a writer, I would not make such a mistake....get it right the first time. Note to Beyonce, totally supporting your anger here if Rihanna is getting all over your man..but there is a fine line between graceful jealousy(ie Gwen Stefani & Madonna) and insane jealousy(ie "I hate you so much right now" Kelis)so just watch yourself. Find a Carrie Bradshaw middle ground. We're all rooting for you. Especially when it comes to younger thinner little b@tchs moving in on your territory. Watch some Sex and the City and do some pilates.



P.S. Gideon Yago is so overrated now...I was surprised to see him still with MTV. Kurt Loder and Matt Pinfield are 10 times the music man you are. I'm glad I got over that obsession...I will post those old skool photos I took of him during our two choice encounters in a later post.
