Random Thoughts from the Weekend

  • More signs that there will be a Rock of Love
    Light Rail series – the Rock of Love Bus winner, Taya Patrick, is doing another Penthouse spread. Unlike Bret likes his women being exhibitionists (post-victory exhibitionists since they are all exhibitionists during the show), their attempt to rekindle the flame may be waning;
  • Poor Britney – she started her concert saying, "It is really great to be in Sacramento." Too bad she was performing in San Jose at the time. I guess her home schooling did not include geography.
  • Josh McDaniels is trying his best to channel his inner Bellichick, but essentially making Alphonso Smith their 2010 first round pick in the second round of 2009 makes no sense (particularly since the 2010 pick would likely be one of the top five picks). Almost as bad as the Raiders picking the third-best receiver with the number 7 pick.
  • I watched the Celebrity Apprentice for the first time this year and what a doozy. It featured dueling Jesse James and Clint Black and a former Playboy playmate, Brande Roderick (who lamented that she has to work harder to prove herself because of her beauty), teaming with Annie Duke, the Poker Queen. But the highlight was Melissa Rivers throwing a tantrum when she was "fired," Joan quitting in sympathy for her daughter, and Joan saying that power players are worse than "white trash."
  • Apparently the Craigslist Killer also solicited men via websites and sent them explicit pictures of himself. I wonder if his fiancée still thinks they have the wrong man?
  • Obsessed was the top movie over the weekend; was there any doubt that a movie-length cat fight between Beyonce and Ali Larter would draw them in? The irony is the fact that the dour boss from The Office, the one who drove Michael to quit, was the man they were fighting.
  • R.I.P. Bea Arthur (and then came Maude).
