Potpourri of Pissiness...

Today, there are just too many things at which to shake one's head in disbelief, so I'll try to touch lightly on the ones that made me goggle the most...

The Runaway Bride has reared her stupid, bug-eyed head yet again
Now Jennifer Wilbanks is suing her ex-fiance--you know, the one she humiliated by fleeing town just before their wedding--for her share of the proceeds from a book deal about their "adventure" (here's a tip: an "adventure" is a trip to Carlsbad Caverns...what she did was called "irresponsibility"), her share of the sale of a townhome they owned together (fair enough) and some personal possessions (fair enough), like a ladder that belonged to her father (aaaaannnd that she pushed him off of, perhaps...?). Get this: she's also suing him for some of the wedding gifts they received. Funny thing: I'd always heard that you should return the gifts to the givers if the wedding doesn't happen. Apparently, she subscribes to that popular Bridezilla philosophy "finders keepers." I think her close-call ex-fiancee (who also doesn't seem to have all his knives sharpened) should consider himself lucky to have lost this mercenary bitch. Of course, anyone that stupid will find another just like her. I just don't want to look at her glassy eyes in the news ever again. Ever.

Babs reminds the audience who's running the show
This one actually made me smile a little bit...Barbara Streisand was performing a mock-skit with a Bush impersonator during her show at Madison Square Garden when a guy started heckling her (because he apparently didn't like the political statement). She finally yelled at him to "shut the *#@& up if you can't take a joke." What was the guy's problem in the first place? Streisand's political views are well-known to just about everyone, and if he doesn't like it, who the fuck forced him to buy a ticket? Some folks said they wanted to hear music, not political statements, but come on, we've all heard her sing, and sometimes statements are timely. And as she said, "it's the artist's job to disturb." Exactly. That's why Aretha wears those low-cut flimsy dresses...

President Bush shows once again how well he plays with others
The White House has rejected talks with North Korea over their nuclear program (and let's face it, it is a program), saying they "won't be intimidated by Pyongyang." That's all very well for them: they have underground nuclear shelters with enough cheese, crackers and caviar to eat for a decade. I live in a small, one-bedroom condo which doesn't even keep the sounds of alley trade from waking me up at 3:00 a.m. I know the White House doesn't give a shit about the regular citizens, but must they be so blatant about it? Jesus! U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. John Bolton (The Little Diplomat That Can't) says, "This is the way North Korea typically negotiates by threat and intimidation."

Hmmmm....sounds familiar, no?

More tomorrow, or as the bile flow increases...

The runaway bride is one ballsy chick. When I look at her eyes, I see a woman just one rung down from Betty Broderick on the ol' "crazy scale."

Babs, Babs, Babs. Another outburst like this and you will be added to the ever growing Axis of Evil...

Speaking of fearless leader, as Mama Mancuso says, "Don't even get me started on him..."

Jennifer Wilbanks is indeed ballsy...she'd better start taping them back more carefully. Unlike Betty Broderick, however, she'd never drive a Toyota.

I think the Axis of Evil is at capacity now...so I'd suggest that Babs and Nancy Pelosi start a separate entity, the see-saw of evil...
