The View January 30th Recap: Julianne Moore, Whitney Port , and Peter Cincotti

by

julianne-moore.jpg Today on The View the scheduled guests are Julianne Moore, Whitney Port, and musical guest Peter Cincotti. I will be posting my recap at the end of the episode, but feel free to comment here during the show as well, if you are so inclined.

UPDATE: Actually, sorry, but no recap today. It is Friday, though, so I probably am not missing much. If it was being taped live today, I am sure they would be talking about Rod Blagojevich being removed from office late yesterday afternoon. Barbara Walters would no doubt mention that the prosecutor, in his closing argument, argued that Blagojevich talked more about the evidence with Barbara Walters on The View than he did in the Senate. I am sure that Barbara would say something like she was flattered to be mentioned and she is glad he said her name, unlike that news photo the other day that left her name off. Whoopi would say something like, “Affidavits! Affidavits!” and Joy would joke that Blagojevich’s hair still looks perfect.

Alas, it is a prerecorded episode which probably means a discussion of some sex survey or article that no one cares about. I think I should start a campaign to bring back five days of live shows. As it stands now, Friday’s hot topics are even less relevant than the rest of the week.

  1. Vegas Says:

    This seems to be the norm for the NY shows. Regis and Kelly are not live on Fridays either.

  2. Roger from Ohio Says:

    I think this show is being set up to be played as a re-run.
    The big topic of the day is Valentines Day….. it is still January ladies….. are you planning on taking Valentines Day off so you can replay this show?

    I just dont get it.

  3. Roger from Ohio Says:

    I can see it now…..

    That outfit that Whitney Port is wearing…. Elisabeth is gonna be wearing it in like 4 months…. with her belly sticking out in the short skirt and tights.

    I cant wait!! :roll:

  4. ShannonP Says:

    Great commentary Winnie, it gave me a laugh because that is likely exactly what would have transpired.

  5. susieq Says:

    My husband buys me gifts kitchen related all the time. I love to cook so it doesn’t bother me. I would think the man Joy was talking about would know that his wife would like a new kitchen before spending that much money.

    Elisabeth saying Whitney Port is the next Carrie Bradshaw. WTF. I knew Carrie Bradshaw and Whitney Port you are no Carrie Bradshaw.

  6. Kelly Says:

    Well…it was…..

    I sort liked the way….hmmmm

    Fish balls were funny. Julianne is pretty and smart….

    No. I got nothing.

    (Carrie Bradshaw is real?)

  7. berndoubt Says:

    Isn’t Carrie Bradshaw sort of yesterday already? So wouldn’t being the “next” Carrie Bradshaw be sort of an insult?

    I was busy going through pictures of my then baby, today sixteen-year-old son during the show, so I wasn’t paying much attention, but does everybody seem cranky there, just like we all seem cranky here?

  8. berndoubt Says:

    Yes, Kelly, there is a Carrie Bradshaw. It’s a miracle on Whocares Street.

    That’s going to be my favorite new line, just like Fred Armisen as Joy:

    Who cares?

  9. Kelly Says:

    I KNEW IT - all you have to do is…B E L I E V E

  10. mibi Says:

    i have stoppes watching the city whitneys show but i like her i guess i did not miss much today show

  11. Kelly Says:

    tap tap tap

    …..hello?………is this thing on?……

  12. berndoubt Says:

    ***crickets***

  13. Kelly Says:

    ——door closes——

  14. Diane from N.J. Says:

    Kelly, Bern, SusieQ, Mib, Shan, Rog, Vegas…

    Crickets are laughing here in Jersey.

    For not havin nothin’ today - you all are cracking me up…
    :)

    Okay - I have more to add on CONDOLEEZZA RICE I am STILL FUMING from her appearance yesterday. But I don’t have time to write it down right now. Hope to catch up later.

    Is that still okay to return to that subject, on what thread…??

  15. rainlillie Says:

    I feel silly, I had to go look Carrie Bradshaw up. I had no idea who she was. I love it Bern, “who cares!”

    “No. I got nothing.”

    LOL, Kelly.

  16. berndoubt Says:

    ***fluffs hair***

    So what!?!

    ***adjusts blouse***

  17. NanW. Says:

    Ok, did not watch all of yesterday’s show and did not watch today at all, but may I say this thread is a whole lot of entertainment. SO much more than the actual show this blog is about. You people are cracking me up! Do you hire out for weddings, parties etc?

  18. berndoubt Says:

    I need a job. I sing a little. I do jokes. When’s the wedding?

  19. Roger from Ohio Says:

    I have things to say but no place to say them

    TTFN

  20. mibi Says:

    i cost quite a bit an hour and i blame bw for this crazyness

  21. susieq Says:

    I’m the only one here who liked “Sex and the City”? Can I still come here for intelligent conversation? I promise I’m not a shallow pop culture junkie like Elisabeth, I was just flipping channels and I stopped on HBO and well it just happened, it didn’t mean anything and I promise it will never happen again. Oh screw it, a woman has needs damnnit.

  22. NanW. Says:

    First of all, you are all hired, but the first one that makes a breast milk joke is out on their ear!!!

    And susieq…I, too was an addict. My demographic is very far removed from any of those ladies on “Sex” but I still got a kick out of it. And yes, you may come here for conversation of any type…look we are all still watching(at least at times) the View!

  23. berndoubt Says:

    Oh, it just “happened”. Just that once? Because I’ll drag your ass to Maury for a lie detector. Don’t think I won’t do it!

  24. Jane Says:

    You guys are hillarious!

  25. marilyn Says:

    I have always thought of myself, as a humorous person. You guys are soooooooo funny and talented. I am having a ball! I am reading and chuckling but not commenting much, at the present time. I live with snow, ice, and all that “Cabin Fever” stuff. What’s your excuses ? LOL

  26. Stacee Says:

    I, too, watched Sex and the City. It’s not something I planned, it just happened!
    Besides, I’m not the only one. Everyone was doing it too!

  27. marilyn Says:

    By the way… I found a place to order blue cheese stuffed olives. They are YUM-O. Who was the “Dear” who turned me on to them? Was it Joey ?

  28. susieq Says:

    Bern, I’m so so sorry *tears* I was just feeling so neglected and SATC was just there.
    I really tried to give it up but *tears* I really thought SATC knew me. But *sniffle* it
    left me and started screwing everyone in syndication. Can I please come home *sniffle*? I swear to Grilled Cheese I’ll never open my DVR for anyone else but you.

  29. berndoubt Says:

    I did everything for you! I’ve been there for you! For three months! How could you? I did everything for you!!!!!

  30. marilyn Says:

    #27 myself ;
    obviously I already had the martini ingredients .

  31. NanW. Says:

    Susieq, I certainly hope you will not have a “big” announcement in nine months, after your behavior! Although, it would be great for the ratings of this blog…did you plan this??

  32. susieq Says:

    I wasn’t the only one. Stacee did it too.

  33. NanW. Says:

    berndoubt, sounds like you need to call marilyn…you are distraught and she seems to have a delicious cure.

  34. NanC Says:

    LOL LOL This group is wayyyyy more entertaining than the View, great bunch of intelligent, articulate fun people here!!

    Thanks so much for making my day!!

  35. susieq Says:

    NanW, I’m not looking to save my job so I didn’t get myself knocked up.

  36. NanW. Says:

    susieq…if Stacee jumped off a bridge, would you do that, TOO?????

  37. marilyn Says:

    Roger:
    Maybe they did the Valentines segment today, because Julianne Moore was talking about Cards to buy for Valentine’s Day. It would take time,if ordered,to receive them. It seemed to be the only reason she was there.

  38. susieq Says:

    NanW, maybe I jumped first.

  39. joey Says:

    Okay, Okay work with me here…

    Enter Joey stage right…sheepish look on face combined with a heartfelt embarrassment

    Joey: ” I thought Whoppie was actually funny and seemed liked the Whoppie of old…Joy seemed relaxed and I’m liking SS better as time goes on. I am going to be nice and say that because EH is “with child” I today would have chosen not to knock her off her chair. I really enjoyed the laughter.

    For dramatic effect Joey walks slowly across the stage and continues…

    Joey: “The topics were inane but seemed to be comfortable for the current hosts and therefore I relaxed and stopped with my desire to stand up in the audience and yell WTF!! Some laughter lightens the soul…”.

    Scene two: The mood changes and women’s faces sadden and in many homes feminists and others are asking WTF!!!

    Joey continues with enjoying the laughter about fluffy inane material.

  40. Stacee Says:

    #32 susieq, I watched it just a few hundred times and it’s not like I was hooked.
    Why do you always have to be a tattle tale?

  41. rainlillie Says:

    Did anyone here ever watch the show Sisters? I loved that show, Ashley Judd got her start on it.

  42. berndoubt Says:

    Aaaaand, SCENE!

  43. NanW. Says:

    OK, gotta go. Husband’s boss is coming over for drinks….was going to serve wine, but maybe those martinis would be better. Have fun all you crazy people!

  44. NanW. Says:

    ohgod, bern, I really have to go. But when I saw your comment in #42 I had Jack’s voice from “Will and Grace” in my mind…you are too funny!

  45. susieq Says:

    Stacee, I’m taking everyone down with me.

  46. Stacee Says:

    Rain, I vaguely remember Sisters. That was the one with Swoozie Kurtz (sp?) I think (?)

    NanW, have fun! Please hurry back :-)

  47. susieq Says:

    Rain, I loved Sisters. Don’t forget about George Clooney. I keep hoping it comes out on DVD.

  48. mibi Says:

    no never scene that show the “sisters” and never watched “sex and the city” but that proably because i watch reality tv opps i mean intetlecutally challenging tv when i can. :(

  49. berndoubt Says:

    I remember liking Sisters. When I looked it up I realized why. I wanted to be Teddy (Sela Ward) who had Ed Marinaro and George Clooney.

  50. Kelly Says:

    ………WhenNoOneIsHomeIturnOffTheLightsAndWatchTheBachelor :shock:

    –door closes–

  51. berndoubt Says:

    I looked up Sisters on youTube and then looked for Ed Marinaro. If you look up “ed marinaro prego tomato sauce ad 1984″ you’ll find the clip I came across. To this day, I still use Prego when I don’t make my own gravy. Yup, advertising works.

  52. berndoubt Says:

    #50, OHMYGRILLEDCHEESESANDWICH! Say it ain’t so!

    O.K. O.K. If it’s really late and no one else is up and I’m flipping through the channels because there’s a commercial, sometimes I stay on The Jerry Springer Show even after I know the commercial is over! THERE! I SAID IT!

    Whew. I feel better now.

  53. Erika Says:

    Teddy was my fave and I loved when she was with GC. I think I prefer GC in his TV roles than in his movies.

  54. joey Says:

    #50 Kelly, Kelly, Kelly

    The drama unfolds…and the proof that guilty pleasures affect more of us than we would like to think…

    So all of you stop with the suggestions about a reality show intervention with a WTV blogger…I can kick the blog martini on my own!!!

    Can you say the same for yourself!!!!

  55. berndoubt Says:

    YouTube has me remembering how much I like Hill Street Blues (Ed Marinaro and Michael Warren) and St. Elsewhere (Denzel Washington and Mark Harmon). I’m almost afraid to watch an episode and realize that they weren’t as good as I recall. They were both set in Chicago, which could be part of the reason I liked them. Who am I kidding? I was in high school and well, you know how it is in high school. I don’t need to say it, do I?

    What is with me today?

  56. Elsie Says:

    1st, the ladies will be taking Valentine’s Day off because it will fall on a Saturday this year!! And Fridays is a ‘no show’day, so the gals will have plenty of time to prep for V Day. ;)I thought finally, ‘I get to go out that day, and not prepare a candle lit dinner @ home w/pink champagne’. Well, I’ll be attending a friend’s wedding. Take out the red dress! The first part of the show, how telling kids they’re obese is bad, and …Joy does have an issue with the subject. She admits she needs to lose a fw lbs., but always seems to make a joke about it as if directed @ smbdy. What really upset me was whn she suggest on LK Live, was that Michelle Obama was better off wearing black! (WTFH?!) like her (stick to one look, one hair style) or like Richard Belzer (oh, he really needs to conceal his fat!) Come on!

  57. joey Says:

    Okay my huge guilty pleasure is a show that makes me laugh so hard I can’t breathe…it may be a Canadian thing and an attachment to the Brits, or a thing about having been a teen in the late sixties/ early seventies, but

    “Absolutely Fabulous” is the funniest most irreverent show I have ever seen…keep an open mind cuz, well you’ll see… and if you are worried about being a good Mom this will set you worries to rest.

  58. berndoubt Says:

    As long as we’re talking about today’s show…did Elisabeth actually say that she had to get better at Wii so she could beat Grace? Was I not paying attention or is that woman completely soulless? Or both?

    She is SO competitive that she can’t let her almost four year old daughter beat her at a video game designed for children! Wow!

  59. berndoubt Says:

    #57, isn’t Kath and Kim or whatever it’s called with Mary Katherine Gallagher from SNL supposed to be like AbFab? It doesn’t quite make it, though. It’s just funnier when Brits are irreverent.

  60. MiamiVision Says:

    Joey: I absolutely loved Absolutely Fabulous with Jennifer Saunders and Patsy and sidekicks! It’s very difficult to find on TV nowadays but watched them religiously back in the 90s. LOVED THE DAUGHTER on this show!!

    Jennifer is on something else nowadays that I catch every now and then but I don’t remember the name of the show.

  61. mibi Says:

    kelly you and eh have something in common but your great

  62. joey Says:

    #60 MiamiVision

    Amazon or BBC have a complete series available on DVD; it was my gift of choice for Xmas this year for GFs. “Edina and Patsy”.

    Saunders and French are an ongoing treat…my new favorite is “Clatterford”.

  63. Kelly Says:

    Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

    Take it back mibi…

  64. Kelly Says:

    Oops.

    (anyone got an eraser?)

  65. mibi Says:

    i take it back but you might want to watch that lmao

  66. Kelly Says:

    Oh No - you can see it too?

    Oh My Grilled Cheese Sandwich - please don’t tell Winnie mibi.

  67. joey Says:

    eh?

  68. Elsie Says:

    Oh, and I loved Whitney from ‘The City’! I really enjoy that show. Far better than ‘The Hills’.

  69. mibi Says:

    dont worry kelly it between me you and grilled chesse winnie need not know lol

  70. berndoubt Says:

    Tee Hee.

  71. Kelly Says:

    Oh man – I O U big time mibi (sending ripple and fishy crackers your way) *hugs*

    …and blue cheese olives for everyone

  72. susieq Says:

    Kelly, the Bachelor *shaking head* really? I’ll let it slide because I’m assuming you were researching sexism and/or lost the remote.

    Bern, yes EH did say she wants to beat Grace at Wii Bowling. What’s next? Learning to speak in complete sentences before Taylor? Oops too late, Taylor beat her.

  73. diane10 Says:

    I agree that Whoopi was really funny today. Nice to see her tap into the comedy side of her personality.

  74. Kelly Says:

    Well “HI” Diane10. Long time no see. QUICK – look over there.

    (everyone hide – and bring the fishy crackers)

  75. Rachel Says:

    I thought Elisabeth looked like she was about 4 or 5 mos. pregnant today after she changed her outfit. If she’s telling the truth about being surprised and is really only two months, why would she be showing already and so much? Did she take fertility drugs and plans to have a litter? She did seem to almost squeal with delight demonstrating the contraption that crazed woman who gave birth to octuplets would need to breast feed.

  76. rainlillie Says:

    What season was George Clooney on Sisters? I vaguely remember him.

  77. rainlillie Says:

    mibi, you’re like our little sister here.

    Erika, I think I liked Teddy too.

  78. susieq Says:

    Rain, Clooney came on in season 3. Right before ER started.

    Did you ever watch Once and Again with Sela Ward?

  79. Elsie Says:

    No, EH is not 2 mos. pregnant. What she said on yesterday’s show is that for 2 mos. she didn’t know. So, she was two mos. what on Nov., Dec.? Oh, well!!

  80. NanW. Says:

    Kelly, I was all set to get on your a** for The Bachelor until I read your remarks at #74. I am still laughing!

  81. diane10 Says:

    Well, Kelly, I’ll try to find a bit of humor in that post!! Didn’t you think Whoopi was better than usual today?

  82. diane10 Says:

    I do visit this site from time to time to see how everyone is doing. Seems like everyone is doing great and having fun as usual.

  83. rainlillie Says:

    susieq,
    WOW! How did I forget George? No, I’ve never watched Once and Again.

  84. MiamiVision Says:

    joey #62 - Thanks for the info! We can also catch Saunders and French on Youtube - lots of them there!!

    Indulges in some of Kelly’s blue cheese olives! Yummmmmmmmmmm - thanks! LOL

  85. Jennie Says:

    EH was already preggers for election night! Remember she was nauseous. So probably more like 3 months. I’m guessing…

  86. Kelly Says:

    NanW…shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

  87. Kelly Says:

    JUST KIDDING (In my best Ann Coulter voice)

    Yes Diane10 – I can’t remember when I laughed that hard ‘with’ Whoopi. The Fish Balls story was great – and the wedding day story…I laughed until my belly jiggled like a bowl full of jelly.

  88. Kimberly Says:

    diane10– didn’t you get the memo? This site is only for like-minded individuals.

  89. berndoubt Says:

    Anchovy stuffed olives in a bloody Mary with a dark beer chaser…yummers, but bleu cheese stuffed will do fine, too!

  90. Kelly Says:

    I sent the memo ‘certified’ - everyone should have gotten it.

    [Intermission Break]

    “Let’s go out to the lobby. Let’s go out to the lobby. Let’s go out to the lobby – and get ourselves a wee one.”

    [regular programming will commence in 4…3…2…]

  91. Diane from N.J. Says:

    Okay I’m going to bit%#h some more about Condolezza Rice right now. I’ll ruin the mood.

    Secret Guilty Pleasure TV…Real Housewives. There I’ve said it.

    And I DONT WATCH ROCK OF LOVE BUS with Bret Michaels. But once when I was channel flipping after 2 glasses of Merlot, I stopped and looked. For a second.

    Ann Coulter was on that bus. I swear.

  92. Kelly Says:

    If Ann Coulter was on that bus, single mothers were under it.

    Thanks folks, thank you. I’m here all week.

    (I stole that material from bern) :wink:

  93. Diane from N.J. Says:

    I Mean I’m NOT going to Bit%^H about C.Rice right now.

    Kelly, all those “ooooo’s” went off your screeen and tubled onto my desk.

    Yo Diane10 - we’re havin’ a liberal party, we’re havin’ a liberal party, ..YA HOO! Break out the Constitution, and a picture of Barack Obama, and Joey , mix those martini’s !!!

  94. Diane from N.J. Says:

    $8.95 all you can eat buffet included ?

  95. Kelly Says:

    ***crickets***

  96. Diane from N.J. Says:

    Hey Bern ! I’ll bet you are Italian…you slipped when you referred to tomato sauce as “gravy”…I only hear that from my Italian friends in NY/NJ !!

  97. Kelly Says:

    She’s Irish. She could land an airplane in shorts…or…something like that.

  98. Diane from N.J. Says:

    I feel like everybody left the room.

    What is it, my perfume or something?

    Real Housewives, anyone?

  99. Kelly Says:

    ***crickets***

    ***crickets****FROG****crickets***

  100. mibi Says:

    i love goldfishes becuase there so delicious gone go fishin

  101. marthe Says:

    I am still gobsmacked by this octuplet woman. Best guess is she had the fetuses inserted in Mexico. She came to Kaiser 2 months pregnant. How did she get coverage?

    Kelly, what did you think of SIGC? I’m either going to see Slumdog or Gran Torino this w/e.

    The ab/fab talk got me to remembering the BBC show Good Life/Good Neighbours. Penelope Keith as the prissy neighbour without a sense of humour being friends with the hippies who quit the rat race to be self-sufficient.

  102. joey Says:

    The stage is set in a dark dusky light…voices from “WTV” filter through the fog and and focus on the cast of “The View”…the female angst is as important as a new handbag; no…yes…no…yes… NOOOOO

    Let’s go forth to the lobby and wee kisses to Kelly!!!

  103. Kelly Says:

    OMGcs marthe –

    I watched marthe’s “The Company of Strangers,” a flick about a group of elderly women whose bus breaks down in the beautiful Canadian wilderness…

    I immediately picked out mibi (so sweet and understanding and accepting), and then marthe, and maybe Lopez…and I think I was the nun (all Maude-like)…although I’m not at all nun-ish.

    I got to the point where they’re at the adjacent cabin (son’s sleeping in the only room with a working DVD player at the moment – I burned the other out – imagine that) – but I love the discussions these women have. These wonderful, sage, reflective adult conversations about life, love, regret, triumph, frog hunting, porn boot jacks and even complete nonsense gaiety that sleep and food-deprivation in the clean outdoor wilderness is sure to bring.

    Haven’t seen the end yet – so no spoilers

  104. joey Says:

    #98 Diane from NJ

    I think peeps are just having some fun…

    I am from Canada and I could only hope that as a liberal thinking Canadian and Liberal voter I could have a forum like this. I know I’m cheezeeeee but I would have been proud to have my party line supported by the incredible stance taken and the amazing amount of effort put into the support of these women’s beliefs.

    Real Housewives, Bonnie Hunt…toooo funny

  105. rainlillie Says:

    Did anyone ever see Whoopi’s and Drew Barrymore movie Boys on The Side?

  106. Aileen Says:

    # 87 Bern -I got one thing to say… BBBBAAAARRRRRFFFFFFFF! Thanks to you I am no longer one good flu away from my ideal weight, But now I do have a bad taste in my mouth. (shivers)

    akay.. akay.. akay.. Did you like see Whoops face when like Wintney Port was talking? It was like.. “Uh. My.. Gawd!!!!! That is what a Valley Girl sounds like!!!!” You know she is home now replaying the tape and praticing voices in the mirror with new facial expressions. I hope she figured out you dont need ceiling eyes when mimicking a valley girl.

    akay… akay.. akay… I think that Whitney is so pretty and like everything… and like that dress was sooooooo like cute.. but sitting down in the dress only made her hips look like reaaaal wide and I couldnt stop looking.

    I do have to say I watch the Hills and The City religiously and thought the show was based loosely on my life. No chit. :lol:

    I’m just saying..

  107. Diane from N.J. Says:

    Thanks Joey ! And I really enjoyed your story about the deer pressing their little noses up to your house windows the other evening. I felt like I was there.

  108. Kelly Says:

    Absolutely Fabulous is delicious – Jennifer Saunders is Ghetto-fabulous-Joy Behar.

    Whoopi and Joy could be America’s answer to “Edina and Patsy”.

    My mom used to have this saying, “I like earrings that make it into the door before I do.” :grin:

  109. diane10 Says:

    Yes, I realize you only want people here who think like you. I did get that memo! It’s nice to read through your posts from time to time knowing that like minds are securely engrossed in the things they all like collectively. You are a nice group of women who enjoy each other.

  110. Diane from N.J. Says:

    Rain - Yes, I know the movie - Boys On the Side”. Whoopi was a Lesbian, right ? I sometimes forget that she really has made a lot of movies - and alot of baaaad ones.

  111. Kelly Says:

    Jersey Flower: I forgot to tell you. GOPmom made the same cored apples stuffed with gooey cinnamon caramel (snickers maybe) walnuts surprise that you mentioned the other day.

    She was hailed as the Queen of the Cookoff and carried around the kitchen on the shoulders on her grateful court

  112. Kelly Says:

    That’s not true diane10. I hope you stick around. I look forward to being your loyal opposition. :mrgreen:

  113. Diane from N.J. Says:

    I love AbFab.

    Kelly, now I can’t get that dang “Lets’ Go Out To The Lobby” melody out of my head.

  114. rainlillie Says:

    marthe,
    My hubby’s friend is a SAG member. Tonight I’m watching Doubt and possibly Slumdog. I saw Gran Torino and didn’t care for it.

    Diane from N.J.

    That’s the movie. I remember Whoopi singing in it.

  115. Diane from N.J. Says:

    Thanks so much for the recipe feedback, Kelly.

    Honestly, I was maybe too ‘bloggy hoggy’ on Wednesday - thought I blabbed to much.

    Geeeesusss, then I started writing recipes. Thought to myself, oh these ladies have to be rolling their eyes.

  116. joey Says:

    Hey Aileen

    Are you at work or at home, and how has your week been?

    Joey

  117. marthe Says:

    My loose morals. I watched a borrowed DVD of a bond film [with Halle Berry] that had a script now and then this dvd is for oscar voting purposes only.

    Kelly, one of the women in Strangers in Good Company turns out to be a lesbian and they stone her to death before the rest all get impregnated by a reformed homosexual preacher.

    Akay. Akay.. Akay… I will most likely get slapped for this but I CANT HELP IT!!! MY FINGERS HAVE TERRETS!!!!

    Lie Detector:

    Tim H was a salesman’s delight when it came to any kind of unusual gimmick. He’s a republican and additionally retired from sports and found his new calling.

    His wife Bitsy H had long ago given up trying to get him to change.

    One day TH came home with another one of his unusual purchases. (besides the muzzle for the TLB)

    It was a robot that TH claimed was actually a lie detector.

    It was about 5:30 that afternoon when Taylor, their 11 year old son, returned home from school. Taylor was over 2 hour’s late.

    “Where have you been? Why are you over 2 hours late getting home?” asked TH.

    “Several of us went to the library to work on an extra credit project,” said Taylor.

    The robot then walked around the table and slapped Taylor, knocking him completely out of his chair.

    “Son,” said TH, “this robot is a lie detector. Now tell us where you really were after school.”

    “We went to Bobby’s house and watched a movie.” said Taylor.

    “What did you watch?” asked Bitsy.

    “The Ten Commandments,” answered Taylor.

    The robot went around to Taylor and once again slapped him, knocking him off his chair once more.

    With his lip quivering, Taylor got up, sat down and said, “I am sorry I lied. We really watched a tape called Sex Queen.”

    “I am ashamed of you son,” said TH. “When I was your age, I never lied to my parents.”

    The robot then walked around to TH and delivered a whack that nearly knocked him out of his chair.

    Bitsy doubled over in laughter, almost in tears and said, “Boy, did you ever ask for that one! You can’t be too mad with Taylor. After all, he is your son!”

    With that the robot immediately walked around to LTB and knocked her out of her chair.

    All Republicans should buy this Robot. Wait it should be mandatory.

    I’m just saying..

  122. berndoubt Says:

    I’m so stealing “akay” from Aileen.

    Akay, I’m Irish and pale as ale, baby! I said I’m so pale that when I wear shorts I can land planes. My parents both grew up in an Italian neighborhood on the West Side. West Side in the hiz-ouse! So, yes, I call tomato sauce “gravy” and when I make my own I use pork neck bones. So what?!? Who cares!?!

  123. Kelly Says:

    The lesbian happens to be the most articulate and interesting…as she said, “we were the secret generation.” And then mibi is sitting there, all sweet and open and asking her what it was like to live like that.

    Then mibi gets all chocked up…and goes back effortlessly to bird watching. CUTE

  124. Kelly Says:

    bern baby - fogetta bout it.

  125. Kelly Says:

    Then mibi gets all CHOKED up (sorry mibi)

  126. Aileen Says:

    # 116 Joey - heya Dahlink!!! I am actually back in NJ for now. Project ova and looking for new work. This is always part of the job where they totally over pay you and then you dont work for a month or so. I am ready to pickle myself in a vat of vino and watch tv all day in my sweats burning off the hang overs. I will not be using Berns recipes for Bloody Marys thank you. I have 4 unused plane tickets getting ready to cash in and take a trip. Also half a million of marriot points. Watch out girls.. I can be heading to your town anytime soon and at the end of the trip, if you squeeze me, you will be able to fill 2 bottles of vino :lol:

    #117 - Marth - Thanks Dahlink for the compliment but you should see me in the morning.. :lol:

    #118 - Kelly :lol: . :lol:

    #119 - Mibi - I know!!!! After my second bottle of wine I am heading straight up to the city to knock on the doors of the producers and will sleep with them until I get my money :lol:

    #121 Bern - You can have my permission to use “Akay” if you sign the royalties agreement I just sent to your inbox. I am tired for all my original material being exploited. I was flipping through the channels lately and saw some skin flick on TV and noticed they stole some of my stuff too!!! :LOL: :LOL:

    I’m just saying..

    mibi Says: “i love goldfishes becuase there so delicious gone go fishin”

    MY RESPONSE: LOL! :-D

  128. Stacee Says:

    Aileen Says: “akay.. akay.. akay.. Did you like see Whoops face when like Wintney Port was talking? It was like.. “Uh. My.. Gawd!!!!! That is what a Valley Girl sounds like!!!!” You know she is home now replaying the tape and praticing voices in the mirror with new facial expressions. I hope she figured out you dont need ceiling eyes when mimicking a valley girl. ”

    Too funny!
    And the robot joke, ROTFLMBO!!!

    I am seriously laughing after reading these comments! You all are wonderful :-)

  129. Diane from N.J. Says:

    Bern - I got cha. You don’t have to be Italian to make good gravy. Yeah miracle gravy on Whocares Street. I’m goin’ there.

    Mibi, Kelly, thanks for reassuring me that I wasn’t too ridiculous.

  130. Elsie Says:

    “LOS ANGELES, Jan 29 (Reuters) - Walt Disney Co.plans to lay off 200 people at its ABC division, a Disney executive familiar with the situation said.” Hmmm??, Thanks Drudge for the info. Where is WD going to start cutting?

  131. MiamiVision Says:

    I read ABC is cutting 400 jobs all across the board - and I read it in several places like Huffington Post and CNN.

  132. mibi Says:

    omg I just saw the show and whitneys outfit was ridiculous. thumbs down. Sorry but that dress was sucky. ( and kelly that is just how it happened.birds are the best)

  133. Erika Says:

    If anyone did watch the show today…who immediately checked Wikipedia to see if it said JM was once married to that guy with an Indian sounding name and if it said that Sherri dated a Sex Pistol? I did. I found neither, but it airs at 10 here-2 hours after East&Central. I wonder if it got amended before I checked?

  134. Erika Says:

    and Stacee, since we were talking TV shows, I just got Season 1:Disc 1(the miniseries) of Battlestar Galactica. I started it earlier and got into it right away. It looks like it’s going to be really cool 8)
    It’s going to be fun watching all the seasons in a row.
    I was worried since I’m not into sci-fi TV shows, but I do like sci-fi books and movies occasionally and this is a well-done show; I could tell immediately and I like the concept of the Cyclons. Anyone ever read Ender’s Game? It’s supposed to be made into a movie in the near future.

  135. Lopez Says:

    Erika - at the bottom of every Wiki page is the date and time an entry was last updated.

    On Moore’s page, if you scroll all the way to the bottom, you’ll see…

    On January 29, Moore rejected rumors on The View that she has been married multiple times and note that Wikipedia is an unreliable source.

  136. Stacee Says:

    Erika, glad you like it (so far). 1st season IMO was the best.
    And yes, it’s much better watching back to back.
    All in all, its a great storyline and I look forward to the conclusion.

  139. NanC Says:

    Hey………..whoever suggested blue cheese stuffed olives, I bought some & they are sooooooooooooo delicious!!

    Thank you and………. thanks to everyone for the great laughs I receive here each day, such a smart, articulate and fun bunch!!

  140. berndoubt Says:

    NanC, if you like caesar’s salad, try an anchovy olive. It’s not pokey-boney like an actual anchovy. The salt intake will put you over the top for an entire week, but YUM! Sorry, Aileen. They’re delish!

  141. marthe Says:

    Speaking of bad ABC tv, did anyone else catch last night’s Wife Swap? The one husband was jaw-droppingly appalling. The husband is all into saving the planet, but called his guest wife ignorant and fat [and his wife is a weight loss coach!] and encouraged his children to not even talk to her.

    When I was drifting off to sleep last night, for some reason I remembered how Sherri “I don’t want my preacher going to jail” disrespected Alicia Silverstone’s vegan lifestyle by sneaking her dog meat on the Beauty Shop set.

  142. Roger from Ohio Says:

    Where does one go to buy dog meat?

    What did Sliverstone say after she found out what happened?

    How did she slip the meat to her?

    I looked for the story about it but couldnt find anything.

    Tell us more marthe.

  143. marthe Says:

    It was from the Day of the Split-Screen. Sherri said Alicia’s dog wasn’t a vegan on the set because she fed him meat all the time.

    Sherri has lost weight since then.

  144. Kelly Says:

    LOL – she didn’t give Alicia DOG MEAT…she gave her dog…some sort of meat. LOL (I thought the same thing - ‘What’d she do, ship that in from China?’)

    I saw that belligerent Brit. He was ghastly.

    The Midwestern wife showed more class and restraint than her ‘pure breed’ counterpart. The children will one day grow up and be ashamed of their behavior. Sometimes, the apple does fall far from the tree.

    Finished ‘Strangers in Good Company/In the Company of Strangers.’ The ending reminded me of the ending in ALIVE. There she was on the rescue chopper, waving to her peeps, wondering why she even bothered given that lack of ceremony or well-wishes upon her departure.

    I loved the photomontage of each past life – not unlike the film rainlillie has on her site this week.

  145. marthe Says:

    To me it was a placid, everybody has had a fascinating life, if you take the time to listen [eek, and enjoy the view?!]

    another great canadian film is Last Night. everyone knows the world is going to end on a certain date. some take part in a giant guitar jam with a guy from BTO, another makes an effort to live out every sexual fantasy he ever had, including his high school french teacher.

    Wife Swap: I personally plan to turn my back to Dumbya if I ever meet up with him, but if my mom asked him to her next birthday party, I would be civil.

    I was camping at a river and we met a family fishing. I was disgusted that the 8 year old son had one of those awful barb wire arm tattoos. I of course didn’t mention that but asked if he’d caught any fish. Yes? oh, but could you clean them? Dad proudly told how his son knew how to clean fish and son beamed.
