Miley is mentioned in the headline! Maybe today will be as fun as yesterday!

David Blaine plans to hold his breath for 16 minutes and 32 seconds on Oprah's show: piece of cake.

I once held mine for 18 minutes until the Lovely Mrs. byoolin changed the channel from the Oprah show. (Apart from the speaking for God and Chief Engineer Montgomery Scott, there's been no lasting brain damage!)

Who knew that many tweens read the Washington Post? Where did they all come from? Do they sit there are google "miley cyrus, hannah montana" all day?

"Liz Kelly, what hell hath ye wrought?"

- my nomination for Comment Of The Week, by rachelt, yesterday at 10.47PM.

With this much Miley, are we going to have a Cyrus Watch since Brit is back on the wagon??

Now Rosie is upstaging Miley and Chris Crocker in one shot!

Heh heh - thanks Captain Byoolin!

Britney was completely covered. More covered than most of us when we are completely dressed.

Re: comment of the week...

I dunno. I kind of liked the one that described the Miley/Billy Ray photo as "incestupus."

The word of the day yesterday had to be 'pornorific'. Though 'incestupus' is awfully close.

Is this one Hulk and his daugher or Hulk and his girlfriend-who-looks-like-his-daughter?
http://photos.tmz.com/galleries/hogans_pool_day#2

Either way, yuck. In all seriousness, if you dad does this to you, tell a teacher or a cop or someone.

From the complete sentences, the correct spelling, the lack of abbreviations and the general coherence of the posting, I infer that today is NOT a Booby Kennedy Day?!? Sweet.

That movie 'Caligula' was both pornorific and incestupus.

So Al Franken owes $70,000 in back taxes - IN SEVENTEEN STATES!!!

Who does he think he is, Snipes?

Ummm. . .someone needs to tell the Hogans to sit up straight when wearing bikinis.

-First, Hulk dates a woman who is the older version of his daughter and now, he's touching his daughter inappropriately. Talk about creepy.

-It's this Gary Dourdan's second drug bust.

Liz, FYI...from yesterday's fashion chat.

Settling a raging question: One of your fellow The Washington Post chatters has been waging a long war against pleated pants. Just wanted to get your take on it, as I prefer pleats and can't make this person see the light of day. Thoughts?

Janet Bennett Kelly: If you're one of those people who look good in them, then by all means, wear them. No argument here.

Guess what? I WIN!

*From the story about Charlie Sheen..."When Nici dropped four girls off at his penthouse, she found the actor in silk pajamas with 'C. MaSheen' embroidered over the pocket."

That sounds like something from a 1970s porn movie, and I find it completely believable.

*Also noticed that Ricky Martin is sporting a faux hawk which is so three years ago.

*Now if readers/posters want to get in a lather about a truly skeevy father/daughter picture, that Hulk & Brooke Hogan pic ought to do it.

*Last thing, Liz, did your bosses at the website tell you how much traffic your little Celebritology blog brought in yesterday? Surely you're in line for a raise, if not another pair of Jimmy Choo's.

The problem is that almost no body type really looks good in pleated pants. So, the chance of you being "one of those people who look good in them" is pretty unlikely. More likely is that you only *think* you look good in them, but really look like a puff pastry. So, Liz Kelly's position remains correct, although if you still insist on wearing the pleats, there are no winners here.

Thanks Sunny. I agree. You also didn't specify to Janet whether or no you are a dude or a chick, which could make some amount of difference to her.

Janet, by the way, is one of the best-dressed woman at washingtonpost.com. She must've been tipsy when she said pleats were okay.

I guess when Gary Dourdan said he was leaving CSI, the "other opportunities" he was pursuing included cocaine, heroin, Ecstasy and miscellaneous prescription drugs.

Oh, a little update on the blog template: The word "Celebritology" in the banner now links back to the main blog page. And, on that main blog page, we now have more posts.

*Also noticed that Ricky Martin is sporting a faux hawk which is so three years ago.

Actually, only last week here in DC -- it was a big (or maybe just moderate?) thing during the Caps' play-offs. I saw a couple at game 7...

Yay, Liz, thanks for the design updates! And thanks to everyone for making yesterday such a great Booby Kennedy Day!

And now that we know what Rosie and Heincer think of Miley's pix, I think we can all agree that, President Bush excepted, every single half-wit in America has offered his or her opinion on the subject.

(Captain Mudge, we'll be beaming you out shortly. Finish whatever you're doing (heh, heh) and put your boots on, sir. Everyone else is aboard.)

Yo fatty carm down miley ain't all urz, anywayz i don't know why miley is doing this, she is a dirty young adult and know she is getting less fans! Miley i used to be ur #1 fan but now i am ur #1 hater
From Sana

Yo, Sana: ESL class is over there ------>

Ok, *now*.

OH NO!!! Here we go again. What the @*&# is a "carm?"

It got buried pretty deep in the Hannacane yesterday, but I would like to plug my attempt to write the photo shoot kerfuffle in to a Hannah Montana episode:

http://livebythefoma.blogspot.com/2008/04/more-very-special-episodes.html

I send up some other tweener shows too. Now back to your regularly scheduled snarking.

For what it's worth, when Rosie said "You kind of do what she says. It's intimidating" about Leibowitz, she's got a big honkin' point. I imagine Annie's got the combination of flattery and bossiness down to an art, and can make most any subject do what she says.

Good Lord, I just agreed with O'Donnell on something.

OH NO!!! Here we go again. What the @*&# is a "carm?"

Posted by: sunnydaze | April 30, 2008 9:35 AM
****************************************

I'm not sure what a "carm" is and I'm not going to ask Sana, since (s)he sounds like (s)he'll cut a b*tch.

Though I do think I need to incorporate the phrase "#1 hater" into my vocabulary. Perhaps I can use that in a meeting later today....

If I may translate, sunnyd:

"Excuse me, Ms. O'Donnell: please do not purport to represent the plurality of opinion on the Miley Ray Cyrus photographs in Vanity Fair. We cannot claim that we fully understand her motivations. My own opinion is that Ms. Cyrus has made an unfortunate decision that will ultimately diminish her reputation and, by driving away disaffected former fans such as myself, her fan base."

So is Rosie going to be the face of exploited teen stars to take the heat off of "she who shall not be named".

I am seriously reconsidering my decision to switch to a teaching career.

I was having IE issues yesterday & kind of checked out around noon so I missed all the fun. In reading over some of the unintentional and intentional comedy that took place yesterday here is my favorite comment:

'I'm betting that Jesus would proofread.'

Posted by: musicgeek | April 29, 2008 2:27 PM

I, too, was at a sporting event last week when I spotted a guy with a faux-hawk. I turned to the guy I was with and said, "Aren't those out?" and he said, authoritatively, "Yes. They were gone three years ago."
(He also added, "when our friend, Joe, wore one," but you don't know Joe. You don't know me either. Well anyway, my friend says they're over, so in my mind they're over.)

I am seriously reconsidering my decision to switch to a teaching career.

A scene from the byoolin family car last night:

THE KID: So guess what we did in AP English - note that I am stressing the 'AP' part - today?

THE LOVELY MRS. BYOOLIN: What?

THE KID: We read Poe's "The Raven" and then did drawings about how it made us 'feel.'

BYOOLIN: Drawings?

THE KID: Yes, drawings. And then in Civil War History class we watched 'Cool Runnings.'

BYOOLIN: The movie about the Jamaican Olympic Bobsled Team's contributions to the Civil War?

THE KID: Yeah. That one.

...but you don't know Joe...

Posted by: methinks | April 30, 2008 9:58 AM

*******

I also don't know Jack, or so I am told. I really need to meet these guys. (We're short on D.)

Rosie really does not need to comment on every troubled teen out there. She just needs to go away.

I see Harrison liked them young even back then. Although apparently meat on the bones was still allowed then.

I guess Gary Dourdan's freak out episode on CSI this season was autobiographical.

Apparently I should apply at Byoolin's neighborhood school. I examined my life, and decided I needed a job with more stress, less respect, and less pay.

I would not show "Cool Runnings". I would bring in guest speakers to teach about coherent blog postings.

OH, ok, thanks byoolin - where did you find the modern day rosetta stone?

I do agree with Magnolia that "#1hater" might get some play today. I am pretty sure that I can at least work it into an email or two.

And RCR, DON'T DO IT!! Unless you have some *really sincere* desire to *help* people and a large amount of patience - like on par with Mother Teresa, or you have some really stong masochistic tendencies or you can go to a job every day and just not give a flying *&(e whether you have any success at all. Mr. sunnydaze teaches high school math and it is both thankless and soulsucking. He continues to do it because, bless his little heart, he believes that someday one of the little monsters might learn something. It takes a special kind of optimism or insanity or maybe a blend of both to teach in the public school system. The worst was when, last year, a student was hopelessly failing pre-calculus and his mother called my husband at home and cursed him out because her little angel was going to be an engineer. God help us and stay off the bridges.

Mr. Roller is a teacher, but will soon be a principal (hopefully). So I more or less know what I'd be getting into. Here's my favorite teaching story: (sorry for the length)

Mr. Roller and I go out to eat at a local pizza joint. Young surly teen walks up to us and says "I'm going to make your pizza extra special, Mr. Roller!" Mr. Roller said to me "we're leaving." We left. This was a kid with a really bad attitude that failed his class *three* times. And obviously, he was very stupid, because what he should have done was waited until we were EATING the pizza and said "I made your pizza extra special."

I just want to take this moment to personally thank the following celebritology posters:

h3
Sasquatch
Byoolin
methinks
Sigh (I think I got them all)

Yesterday was a riot, and very very entertaining. I just caught up on all the crazy comments, and appreciated the sanity amongst the nutty masses.

Well done.

I worked in education for five years and "felt the love" for three of those five years. After that, it was endlessly tedious and maddening. I will say, though, if you can find a good gig and if you have the 'calling', education can be a rewarding profession.

Wow. Just wow. I skimmed/read yesterday's 400+ posts. Pure entertainment! And I got my free Phish Food cone at Union Station after work -- only waited 20 minutes! Yeah for that.

Nice pony tie in. That was great.

Back to ice cream -- starting at 5:00 PM -- participating Baskin Robbins (some found in Dunkin Donuts shops) are (or is?) doing 31 Cent Scoop Night to benefit firefighters -- www.baskinrobbins.com/firefighters

I don't work for BR, but I was a volunteer FF for 14 years. We're good people!

Congrats to Jason Lee and girlfriend. However, I feel for the kid because Jason's son is named Pilot Inspektor. I think that's the spelling. What could they possibly create for the new addition?

Oh Booby Kennedy Day was fun indeed. However, that's the kind of event I can only handle once a quarter. More than that and my head would explode trying to make sense of the postings, which is why I gave up reading them.

On what planet would Nick Cannon be able to get Mariah "I would feel violated" Carrey?

The creepy dad group grows every year. Add Hogan to the mix of papa Joe, Lilo's dad and the acky breaky man as well.

And what's up with the celebs talking about their past flings? If Carrie had a thing with Shia like last year that would be celeb news but Harrison back in the day, meh.

"OH, ok, thanks byoolin - where did you find the modern day rosetta stone?"

My mom's French-Canadian. I work in Pittsburgh. I live in West Virginia. My stepdaughter is 17.

In other words, I have extensive experience in The Barely English Dialects.

Man, it's not even 10:30 and I'm already 40+ comments late. I have to carm myself down. (Liz, you HAD to keep bringing up Miley, dintcha? Sheesh!)

Fauxhawks are the hairstyle on this season's Top Chef. Judge Ted Allen said in his blog that it was time to let them go.

Ricky Martin bought an island? What has he done lately or did he just invest his La Vida Loca money really well? How big is that island anyway?

And for the record, I look bad in pleated pants too, but I can't find any nonpleated ones that fit. Just so you know. It's a supply and demand issue.

Hey WDC21113, I have a long line of volunteer FFs in my family so I salute you! I plan to hit my local BR this afternoon/evening for my .31 scoop.
We don't rate a B&J where I live, but we do have a Baskin Robbins.

Thanks, PC! Petal was there, too, and I don't remember who else. Definitely the strategy on Booby Kennedy Day is to skim heavily, then stop when you see Byoolin's name.

if you have the 'calling', education can be a rewarding profession.

Posted by: methinks | April 30, 2008 10:13 AM

Agreed methinks, but "the calling" is what I previously referred to that necessary blend of optimism and insanity...Mr. sunnydaze has it in spades.

So, anyway, good luck with that RCR - as long as you go into it with your eyes open and your kevlar vest in place.

byoolin, your qualifications as an interpreter are outstanding. I think you deserve a cabinet position in the upcoming new administration - something like Most Exalted Ambassador to the Illiterate, Uneducated and Idiotic. Maybe you could translate "Pull your dang pants up" into something that will be heard.

More about Harrison Ford! The time is 1977, setting: the "Star Wars" set:

Han Solo: Look, Your Worshipfulness, let's get one thing straight. I take orders about my grooming from just one person: me.

Princess Leia: It's a wonder you haven't gotten an earring yet. [Pushing past Chewbacca] Will someone get this big walking carpet out of my way?

Han Solo: OK, OK, I'll wax my chest too.

td, I just blew coffee out of my nose. Luckily it was barely warm, so I don't need to go to the ER to get carmed down.

Ha thanks, much less grumpy today, but also still appalled at the state of teenage grammar. I'm only 27 and I KNOW it wasn't that bad when I was in high school...

I still stand behind my idea for a Hannah Montana Schoolhouse Rock special: I'm Just A Complete Sentence.

It seems that "carm" really works best in proximity to "Yo fatty," as originally used by Sana.

"Yo fatty, carm down" is the new "take a chill pill."

Thanks sunnydaze!

Liz, I think Miley now merits a Category listing on the left of the main Celebritology page -- if we can stand the 'tween traffic that might ensue.

So I get this email about this one sales rep that always lags on paying his bills, and I replied to our accounting dept that I am his "#1 hater".

Do I get a prize?

RCR, if not a prize, you'll at the very least get an email back that says, "You fatty, carm down."

Wow, 452 posts on one thread. Is that a new WaPo website record?

Benji, we hardly knew ye. Sad. We've lost him to the pop machine.

May the force be with anyone who becomes a teacher. I have two friends who have some of the funniest and saddest stories ever about their days.

The scary part is when the parents call or go to the school not to talk but the fight the teacher.

I have a court hearing today, and I'm really afraid I might now say, "Yo fatty, carm down" to the prosecutor. I'd go to jail, but it'd be hysterical..

RE: Paris' song. What rhymes with Paris?

Oh Paris, embarass, Save Ferris, jump off a terrace...

So if I'm not back later, you all can assume that's what happened.

"Benji, we hardly knew ye. Sad."

This is how out of it I am -- I thought this meant that Benji the dog had died.

My contribution to secondary school education is to not reproduce.

I'm not sure what was more frightening about the firey masses yesterday - the kids who posted, or the alleged adults who did (the ones who were On Topic, not the Celebritology regulars).

There are actual mothers out there who troll around chat sites to defend Miley Cyrus. And they're not even as scary as the perverts who crawled out of the shadows.

Ha! td, brilliant! Love the dialog! You might have a future in screen writing.

"...necessary blend of optimism and insanity..." yes, sunnydaze, that's exactly what a 'calling' is. I shall appropriate your description. Give you credit once, then claim it as my own.

As for byoolin's credentials in the Celebritology Translation Dept., I would call it a trifecta of experience except it's four things so is that a quadrafecta? Or am I joining the ranks of tweens and just making up words as I go?

Interesting couple of days on Celebritology. The odd thing is, I'm looking out my window, and it doesn't LOOK like the apocalypse.

"Prosecutors pass on charging Vanilla Ice with domestic battery"

Hee hee: "charging . . . battery" -- Vanilla Ice is no doubt a D(-list) battery.

Carrie Fisher really needs to re-think her eye makeup.

I'd rather homeschool than have my boys type like today's tweeners. I'll do it. I'm serious. Even when I send text messages, I use proper capitalization and punctuation.

My pleated-pants wearing coworker just burst into my office with one of his typically inane problems. My response (at least, in my head):

"Carm down yo, 'fo I become your #1 hater"

Hey 23112, I think we're neighbors. (23114 represent!)

Anyway, not to open a bag o' flames, but this website was mentioned in "On Balance" the other day and is the most frightening thing I've ever seen. Maybe some of these moms were defending Miley:
http://www.happyhousewivesclub.com/

My mom is a second grade teacher in the suburbs and had to call the police on a parent once, who demanded to enter her class room after hours (this parent was also potentially unstable and had refused offers to meet with my mom with an administrator present).

I have a court hearing today, and I'm really afraid I might now say, "Yo fatty, carm down" to the prosecutor. I'd go to jail, but it'd be hysterical..

Well, maybe you'll have better luck using "Yo fatty, carm down," on your cellmate. Let us know how *that* goes.

sunnydaze says:

"the calling" is what I previously referred to that necessary blend of optimism and insanity...

Yeah I definitely have this combination. My first job interview after college was for a job teaching high school math and I am still considering becoming a teacher for a second career. Of course I'm the guy who picked aerospace engineering as his major on the sole premise that it looked fun....

Methinks, I believe the word you're looking for re: byoolin's experience is "superfecta."

Word to the #1 haters.

Will you turn off the article preview pop-up thing for WaPo stories included in the blog? It's really annoying.

"Of course I'm the guy who picked aerospace engineering as his major on the sole premise that it looked fun...."

I picked English with a specialty in fiction on the sole premise that I could avoid learning how to do proper citations. Fast forward 15 years, and I still don't know when to use endnotes vs. footnotes.

"Yo fatty, carm down" makes me giggle until I cry. It's a good thing I don't work in a cube farm.

Based on some of the postings I will have to read all of yesterday's comments. I'm missing out on new words. I didn't see pornorific.

Although the new word stuff is all over because the CW called one of their shows girlicious, I haven't a clue as to what that could be and I'm a little intrigued.

Attention Grammar Police:

"yo fatty carm down" is the result of a young person furtively typing into their telephone. They just hit the LMN button twice instead of once.

the typing without capitals or punctuation is a result of trying to type on a phone

You don't want to see what it would look like if I tried to type into a phone. That's why the kids call it 'texting.' Typing is more refined and precise. Texting is the electronic version of smoke signals, with somewhat better vocabulary.

Petal - save yourself, don't go.

*********

There is absolutly nothing pornorific about any of the photo's i have seen.THos who see it as such/can be slightly labeled with naughty brains .
she is not really nude at all! Anyone ever heard of special effects/the actual shot they were going for was artistic it was the shoulder up.OMG! LOL behind the scenes is what leaked.....WAKE up Leave lil bit alone!

Harrison Ford came out of the closet for Carrie Fisher??? Not even Paula Abdul could have predicted that.

MoCo, your theory doesn't work because that would mean our new friend intended to type "Yo fatty, carl down". Which actually still is pretty funny.

"Brangelina clan relocates to France."

Good - 'Brangelina' sounds WAAAAY sexier with a French accent: 'brahn-zhe-LEE-na.'

"Shine A Light"
Lyrics, Benjii Madden

I texted this song on my telephone
so I could sing it 2 U backed up by a cool ring tone.
And I can sing it 2U in the dark and all alone
Because when I open it up I shine a light.
My cool cell phone makes the world so bright.

Byoolin muses:

"also don't know Jack, or so I am told. I really need to meet these guys."

------------------------------------------

Wasn't Jack on the same ticket with Carl Peed when Carl ran for Fairfax County Sheriff?

The Brangelina clan moves to France? I knew it! I knew it! They're coneheads!

Oh, I can illuminate you on the show Girlicious, Petal. It comes on after America's Next Top Model, of which I am an unabashed fan, and I occasionally made the mistake of letting the tv stay on a bit longer. Girlicious was the show to find a new member of the pussycat dolls. So it was all about girls learning to dance and sing like hoes. (hos?)

Actually the finale was last week, and the replacement starts tonight: Farmer Wants a Wife. I've seen the first episode, and let me tell you, this is 100% top-shelf trash. Everyone should watch it.

I hope Carl emerged victorious, if only for the headline: "Peed is Number 1!"

h3 recommends The Farmer Wants a Wife:

"...let me tell you, this is 100% top-shelf trash. Everyone should watch it."

-------------------------------------------

What if I'm not in my trailer when the program airs?

I think I am going with the theory that "Yo fatty carm down" is exactly what Sana meant to say. The phrase is growing on me and I am considering actually using it in conversation the next time the need arises - this although I am way too old and way too, um, something to use any, and I mean ANY slang without causing all listeners to snort or spew out whatever they are drinking. I have tested this theory several times and always enjoy it...So,

OMG Yo fatty carm down whatup lol thats how we roll in the groovy house wid the shorties and the dogs whatevs...

Please resume regular English at the tone - BEEP

I actually had to go back and take out the punctuation. Ah, I am going to cause my son no end of embarrasment in the not too distant future.

okay i know miley and she would never do this.love yous

Oh for the love of all that is holy!
Eat your lunch, close your Hello Kitty Lunch box and go back to class. This is where the adults play.

Last year I co-opted the "Girlicious" word and had a "Fortylicious" t-shirt created for a friend for her 40th birthday. She gets a lot of compliments from other fortylicious women.

You know, I've always wanted to paint Pikachu on my goalie mask.

Carm down Jessica

Jessica, we all know Miley, too, and she's not coming to your Sweet 16 if you ever post here again.

Also, sunnydaze just called your principal.

props to Petal for calling Billy Ray Cyrus the acky breaky guy.
That's what I will now call him for the REST OF MY LIFE.
Alsome.

Thanks byoolin. That was enough to remind me of why I didn't read through all of the posts yesterday.

H3, as my cousin says "good lookin out" I'm pretty sure I was watching Top Model when I heard the advertisment for Girlicious. I am concerned that the Pussycat Dolls can't seem to keep, ummm, singers, yeah singers because I am certain there was a replacement show last year.

I saw a snippet for that farmer show. It may shape up to be a classic. You can't go wrong with a commerical that states the farmer is looking for a wife who can take some serious plowing. Referring of course to tilling the soil and working the fields till the harvest.

Just wait til you see the city girls try to catch chickens.

Yeah, broken theory, Sana pressed the 7 key (pqrs) three times instead of the 5 key(jkl).

Hey, just for fun , check out the picture in this Slate article about an billboard Disney's running in China, then compare and contrast with the company's reaction to Miley's pix.

http://www.slate.com/id/2190209?nav=wp

Just chickens, that's kind of a let down. Now city girls all done up in their finest threads with a spritz of Chanel chasing greased up pigs, that is entertainment.

Nice pick up, byoolin. Yowza! Someone's heads gotta roll at Disney for that unfortunate ad.

"R" isn't even near "L," and faux hawks have always been for posers

I don't see what is wrong with the Disney ad from China. Every Sunday circular from Target, JC Penny's, and Sears includes photos of young girls in their training bras. How is this any different?

Goodnight nurse.

Now I gotta go backread all this crap when I get home.

Anyhooo.....what the frick is up with my Jason Lee? Have the thetans gotten to his brain or what?

First he get divorced, then knocks up a younger chick, leaves her & knocks up a second chick.

Apparently that whole "7 year itch" thing is true. I'd tell this one to start watching out around 2016 or so.

Perhaps it's because it's on a billboard where millions (if not billions) can see it? And not in ads that people can toss (or in the PC world, recycle)?

Not in jail!

h3 - I'm so glad, I also love Top Model. I think I'm on the Anya bus and I'm so totally over Whitney.

I also go so far as to use apostrophes in texting. Can you even post on this blog from a phone?

Ooh, I like Anya but I'm rooting for Katarzyna. Even if Tyra seems, inexplicably, to hate her. I'm also totally over Whitney and, well, need we even mention Dominique? Oh look, I just did. Who else is still in? There's someone else. Oh! Fatima. Right.

I was talking to someone else about it and neither of us could remember Fatima. Probably because she was better done when she was named Iman. I'm hoping for a Kat-ar-jzina and Anya final.

Liz, when can we start up a ANTM chat?

And also, we don't need to mention Dominique because she loves to. In the third person. Constantly.

We're getting so caught up in Miley, we're completely missing the fact that Jason Lee, who named his first child Pilot Inspektor Lee, is bringing another offspring into the world.

Fellow Celebritologawkers, we cannot let him get away with this without a very healthy dose of mockery and snarky guesses about what his new bundle of joy will be named - any guesses? Friday List?

Booby Kennedy Lee?

There's just something forgettable about Fatima. Well, and she was sick last week, which made her even more personality-less.

Wow, being out here on the left coast means I get to read all of your witticisms before I post anything. :-)

So, I'm amazed Brit was wearing anything! Be glad, fellow gym patrons, that she was at least wearing a towel. That's unusual.

She's still bonkers, tho'. Who goes into a gym wrapped in a towel?

Brangelina clan relocates to France. For the next couple days. Then they'll be off to another country. And Carla Bruni better watch out, Miss Angie has a reputation for going after married men.

I'm sure tens of millions of people see the Sears ad which is included in every Sunday newspaper nationwide. Every worse, boys can hide all those bra ads under their bed! Call the bloggers so they can get on this asap.

Red Leader Lee?
Captain Kommander Lee?

Gypsy Rose Lee?
Michelle Lee?
Robert E. Lee?
Jhoon Lee? (Nobody boddas him!)

(I got nothing. Sorry 98102 -- I'm heading back over to the Tim McGraw post.)

I think the Off/Beat blog must still hold the record for number of posts from the day when Steiner posted about the UFO "sightings" in Texas. Sadly, the number of conspiracy-theorist seems to outnumber the number of crazed tweens out there in the interwebs by the thousands...

"R" isn't even near "L,"

It is if Mandalin is youl filst ranguage.

Carrie Fisher giggly hinted she body waxed with Harrison Ford when they made "Star Wars" in 1977. "I went on the film saying, 'I'm going to give a man a body wax,' like it was a kiwi, an exotic fruit - because I'd never had one," Fisher gushed. "

Quite Frank Lee?

RU Serious Lee?

On the topic of records: the angry mommies blog used to get 100s of posts every day. (It's not called angry mommies...hold on.) (On Balance.) I don't know if it still does - the comments were so angry, I stopped dropping by to look.

They still do, h3. I don't know why I still go there. The people are just horrible to each other sometimes.

Ooooh, new coping mechanism: the next time someone is mean to me at the OB blog, they're getting a "Yo fatty, carm down"

That blog should have its name changed from 'On Balance' to 'UnBalanced.'

Good one, RCR! The On Balance blog: where every day is Booby Kennedy Day.

And now the people in neighboring cubicles think I'm "UnBalanced" because for some reason "Booby Kennedy" gets even funnier to me every time I read it.

"Booby Kennedy" is only fun until someone can't keep his Sirhan Sirhans off you...

I like Fatima but I also like Katarzyna and Anya. I find it hard to pick from those three. Whitney is ok. I don't know how Dominque made it this far her photos aren't interesting in my opinion.

Yipeeeeeee, Sigh isn't going up the river. Good to know.

Jason Lee's baby names:
Carm Down Fatty Lee (you knew it was coming)
Velvet Revolver Lee
Sweet Pea Lee (I see this as a girl's name)

Me too, RCR! I have to close my door because, between "Yo fatty carm down" and "Booby Kennedy Day," I keep busting out in unexplained laughter. I tried out "Yo fatty carm down" on my boss - 55 yr old professional white guy - did not go over so well, but my hysterical laughter may merit a "mental health" day off in the near future. Thanks Celebritology!

Oh and thanks for the props other liz.

Ima Love Lee - for a girl of course, that would just be silly for a boy.

It takes two Sirhans to handle a pair of Booby Kennedy whoppers!

RCR, you're so right - Booby Kennedy just keeps getting funnier. Booby Kennedy. Booby Kennedy. This is, like, the most obscure brand of inside humor possible. I don't even know who you people are, and there's, what, like probably 10 or 20 people in the world who are laughing at the same things as me?

I think Dominique made it this far 'cause Nigel wants to sleep with her. Yo fatty carm down!

"Carm Down Fatty Lee (you knew it was coming)"

Petal, I am CRYING with laughter -- my coworkers think I have gone off the deep end. And they just might be right.

Jane Lee
John Lee

Nice and ordinary. Just to throw us all off. Heh.

Angelina Jo Lee

hehe I think I really do need that mental health day!

This is just comedy gold right here.

You're all missing the obvious one:

Liz Kel Lee.

I am dying from laughter. I don't think I've laughed so much as from the last two days of comments.

"Carm Down Fatty Lee (you knew it was coming)"

Petal gets my vote for comment of the week.

OK, I just had to take several deep breaths and bite my lip in order to get all the way down the hall without bursting into inappropriate laughter. I think I need a time out.

When I have to send my laptop back for repairs I will direct the techs to read all about Booby Kennedy Day (damn, that does keep getting funnier) and Jason Lee baby name suggestions.

InFamous Lee
Insouciant Lee
Outrageous Lee

Yeah, I'm in the same boat. Happily the boss is out of town (yesterday, today, tomorrow) because then I'd be distracted by work (for shame!).

Re. Unbalance (great rename), today should hit over 100 as it's on religion.

I've just explained to a concerned co-worker that the tears streaming down my face are in fact 'allergy eyes'.

On any given day bursts of laughter could be heard from my office and my coworkers already think I'm loopy. It'll be fun having the company for the Celebritology mental health day.

Oh. My. God. You people are f%$king funny today! It has been very hard to not laugh out loud, I'm a member of a cube farm. I'm afraid to eat or drink anything for fear it will come out my nose. This blog is sooo much better without all the "Texting Tweeners" (don't know who came up with this yesterday, brilliant).

By the way, Unbalance is perfect for the On Balance blog, those people are f&^king nuts.

Yeah, the last time I walked to the bathroom - which is about 30 feet from my office - I made it about halfway before thinking about Booby Kennedy Day and bursting into giggles again.

jake e. poo, I believe that was Sasquatch, but I believe that it was "Texting Tweener Tw*ts" and I do not believe that he meant twits. (you ARE a he, right Sasquatch?)

Color Me Bright Lee
Holly GoLight Lee
Cray Z Lee

I've actually had to start reading the comments on the other blogs to stop laughing so much.

By the way, the texting tweeners are still going at it on yesterday's posts.

Chronic Lee
Supposed Lee

Suunydaze, while I am nominally male, I think my personality qualifies me more as an IT (I'm not talkin' information technology here)than a he or she.

You can use any vowel you want to replace the wildcard in "Texting Tweener Tw*ts". What the hell, if you're into Bosnian, you can substitute several consonants as well.

Michael, the tweeners would agree with your second name, except they'd call it:

Supposab Lee

Omg. I believe I've mentioned it on this blog before, but I'd like to mention again that this is the time of day when the woman in the next office over gets really flatulent. I mean, it's like clockwork. Thank goodness we're not in cubes, so the wall can act as a scent barrier.

In her honor:
Farty McFarty Lee

June 16 is Bloomsday in Ireland.

Shall we declare April 29 to be Booby Kennedy Day from now on in Celebritology Land?

h3, do you have an e-mail alias? If so, I recommend using it to send Farty McFarty Lee the .wav file from the infamous campfire scene in Blazing Saddles.

I think Booby Kennedy is more of a moving target, like Easter - except rather than being based on the cycles of the moon, it depends on the news cycle. Overrun by texting tweeners? Cancel your meetings - it's Booby Kennedy Day!

The Redskins Insider Blog can get up there in posts too - especially when Joe Gibbs retires out of nowhere!

Can you use her as an alarm clock?

Exactly!"

PFFFFFOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

OK, when I was a tweener a long long time ago in a land far far away, we used to snicker about He/she/it. Just say it fast and you'ss get it. Clearly I am lost in the land of potty humor, because that is exactly what I thought of when I read your post Mr./Ms/Um Sasquatch. By the way, my mother swears that she saw you in a snowy mountain pass outside Helena Montana in the early 80s. Personally, I think she should get off the drugs, but "whatevs."

I have never been in either Helena nor in Hannah Montana.

But I have been in Idaho.

"Just say it fast and you'ss get it"

Yes, that would "you'll" get it. The L key is nowhere near the S key.

Home. Beer. Rest.
Bye

If my officemate didn't think I was insane already, now she definitely does (as I have laughed at this blog all day long)

Ok lauging out loud today at the extra unusual madness...

just had to actually post for once:

Eye Pea Free Lee

Checking in from home to see what I missed. Thanks for all the fun & laughs everyone.
And lurker, congrats on jumping in. I am glad I became a more active member of this merry band of celebrity scholars/lunatics.

it's sad that the photos she took was for one of the worlds best magazines and her pics turn out to look like "that". the pictures are absolutely BEAUTIFUL, but when u realize she's 15, ur kinda like WHOA hold up this is WRONG!!!

LEIBOVITZ AND THE HANNA MONTANA TEARDOWN

Adult market magazines using kids in provocative poses? Is that ONLY inappropriate behavior?

http://pacificgatepost.blogspot.com/2008/04/leibovitz-and-hanna-montana-teardown.html

Adult executives know better. They just don't seem to DO better.

There is nothing innocent about an adult magazine portraying a 15 year old pretending to be naked, hair tousled, wrapped in a bed sheet.

What? Is Booby Kennedy day not over? Yo fatties carm down!

Byoolin states "My mom's French-Canadian. I work in Pittsburgh. I live in West Virginia. My stepdaughter is 17." Sounds like a bad sit-com episode...

So, a group of obnoxious, overly educated, too much time on their hands losers complains endlessly about a group of obnoxious, supposedly under educated, too much time on their hands losers? Remarkable.

The comments on this blog reflect such a closed, insecure little group of cultists -- congratulations!

I suspect very few of you actually have kids. Otherwise, many of these comments wouldn't be made or tolerated (given their stupidity).

Carm down, fatty.
