Dancing With McCartney



Does Paul McCartney watch Dancing With The Stars? I'd be curious to know what Sir Paul thinks of his ex, Heather Mills' performance on the show. So far she has done quite well with her partner, Jonathan Roberts, and they've certainly made a big deal about her prosthetic leg and the challenge that poses to ballroom dancing.

Would Paul be a good sport and wish Heather well and be pleased for her success, or would he bitterly curse her name every time her face appeared on national television. How dare she get all that exposure!

You can watch Dancing With The Stars or any ABC prime time show for free at abc.com.

Sanjaya Was Robbed!

I demand a recount! I cannot believe the American public would vote Sanjaya off the show. Actually, yes I can. In fact, I agree with them. Sanjaya was cute and adorable, but he couldn't really sing. And now that it's down to the bottom six singers, the cream has risen to the top.

Farewell, Sanjana. But be not afraid, for we still have Apolo to route for!!

No Olympics for LA

Los Angeles lost its bid to host the Olympic Games. Chicago was picked to represent the United States in the international bidding. Too bad for us, but hopefully Chicago can make a go of it.

Peter Ueberroth, the chairman of the U.S. Olympic Committee (and former media heavyweight in this neck of the woods), made an interesting comment about the quality of leadership in both cities:

"It was a very tough decision. If I had all the power — and sometimes people accuse me of that — I would take the map and merge the two cities, because I'll tell you what: If you could take the mayors of these two communities and have them run our country, we would all be better off."

I Bought My Car



After all, I decided to keep this cute Honda CR-V and I bought out the lease, for a very good price for a car of this quality. There are times when it is handy to have a vehicle, especially a "utility vehicle." So I won't be stranded, just in case of a tsunami or God knows what.

Only 36 payments to go and she's mine!

Fumigation Time!



It's been ages since I've posted, but some of you know my apartment got fumigated a couple weeks ago. That's my place in the photo, bagged and tagged. Me and Hissy had to be out for 48 hours, so I spent the night in a motel one night and crashed on a friend's house the next, but I couldn't take Hissy to those places so she spent time at Aunt Heidi's.

That was interesting because Hissy doesn't really get along with other cats and Heidi has two cats in her apartment, but they all seemed to get along OK under the circumstances. We're back home again now and things are returning to normal, termite free!
