Thank You For Being A Friend
Hurray! The Golden Girls are finally coming to DVD! I know I am not the only Golden Girls fan out there so I know that many of you are excited to hear this news. I have so many good memories associated with the Golden Girls. Some of the happiest times of my life involve the endless reruns of this show. I don't know what it is about these old ladies that is so enjoyable to watch. I've always been asked who I considered my favorite Golden and I have to tell you, I don't have one. I like all of the characters very much. I'm a fan and I am going to own these DVDs.
You might think that a grown man who is a fan of the Golden Girls sounds crazy. That ain't nothing! How about a woman who attacked a man claiming that she was Buffy ... the Vampire Slayer! This insane woman approached a man, who was out walking his dog after dark, exclaiming:
"I am Buffy the Vampire Slayer!"
To prove her point, she threatened him with a 12-inch wooden stake. She missed her mark, prompting the would-be blood donor's faithful hound to give chase.
Hahahaha! If it had been me I probably would have asked her to pose with her stake for a picture! In other Buffy-like news, Charisma-Carpenter.com has confirmed that Charisma (Cordelia from Buffy and Angel) will be on at least 2 episodes of Charmed next season! She has been cast to play a seer in the episodes entitled Cheaper by the Coven and Styx Feet Under.
Hurray for Paris! Her lost Chihuahua Tinkerbell has been found!!
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Celebrity socialite and reality TV star Paris Hilton was reunited on Thursday with her pet Chihuahua, Tinkerbell, one week after the pampered pooch went missing, Hilton's spokeswoman said.
Poor Paris, she was so desperate to find her lost dog that she resorted to personally hanging up homemade "Lost Dog" posters all over her Beverly Hills neighborhood. The signs read:
310-858-5410
PLEASE
HELP THIS
DOG IS LIKE
A CHILD TO
ME.
These pictures were resized to this smaller size but you can make out the phone number in the original size photos (click the photo to see for yourself). Hee hee, I called the number just to see what would happen and there was a recording (not Paris' voice) stating that Tinkerbell has been found and thank you for calling. Hahahaha!
Geeze, what else is going on:
- Ultragrrrl is leading the charge to make MTV choose Britney and Kevin to become the new Newlyweds. Sign the petition HERE.
- Homer Simpson wins an Emmy! Well deserved! I'm sure my dearest Diana will be pleased to hear of this.
- Morrissey has announced the first of his U.S. tour dates. No Detroit date yet but I'll be sure to let you know.
- The Queens of the Stone Age got Shirley Manson to guest on their new album. Rolling Stone reports that frontman Josh Homme will be joined by a variety of musicians on the upcoming disc, including Garbage singer Shirley Manson, ZZ Top guitarist Billy Gibbons and Distillers singer Brody Dalle. Methinks I'll be downloading select tracks via iTunes once the album is released.
- India is about to get its own version of Sesame Street complete with Hindi-speaking puppets. "We will create local Indian Muppets. They will be characters that will engage Indian children and whom they will be able to relate to" ... "We will need to work with local experts to explore the look and personalities of these characters," Beatrice Chow, a spokesperson at Sesame Workshop, told BBC News Online. How long until these characters make it to Bollywood?
