When Will God Strike Down Tom DeLay?

Aaah the sensitivity of our legislators. Cheryl recently informed me how Mr. DeLay stood up during something or other and recited a Bible passage about sinful people all being overcome by water. At a more recent time, he informed us that good Christians build their houses on rocks and not by beaches.

Funny, I never knew that being a good Christian rested on whether or not you are an architect. So I guess we should tell our 50th state to evacuate or they're all heathens? (Which they probably are since the majority are tanned folk!) And you little fools in Asia deserved the tsunami! I hope another one's coming at you!!

So to Mr. DeLay, I say--obviously, you've never lived by the beach.

P.S. What about the floods that ruin towns and kill people all along the Mississippi? What about the hurricanes that ruin all of Florida? What about the tornadoes that strike the midwest?

2 Universal Truths About The Sexes

You can't trust a girl who has no girl friends.

You can't date a guy who has no guy friends. (You can technically, but one day he is going to come out of the closet.)

Sucker No More

Well maybe just one more time...

Season 3 of The Bachelorette. The usual suspects of tools, forced sincerity, and kiss on the cheek etiquette. But that's not why I'm watching it this season. One word...basketball!! Yes, watching guys playing sports is seeing guys in their most perfect state. There are some major hotties in this season. Mainly hot blond art gallery director from LA (I'm talking Michael Vartan hot) and hot 25 year old real estate investor from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma with wonderful dark brunette hair who reminds me of David from Real World Seattle and some guy from Cornell whose name I can't remember. AND we get to watch them in all their high flying sweaty bravado without their shirts on! I'm getting out my champagne flutes to toast TV producers brilliance in exploitation. I love you guys! Thanks for finally giving us what we want (and extra kudos to VH1's new pop culture adult ADD producers).

Drool aside, one thing in the season preview stuck in my head. A snip showed the last episode when Jen holds out what looks like a female engagement ring, diamonds and all. Now, if she is supposed to propose to a guy, why would she propose with a diamond ring? Guys don't want a diamond ring, much less a girly one. The only thing I can think is that she tells the guy she's chosen him and then gives him the ring to propose to her? That's a bit confusing for the one dimensional world of reality love TV, though. Regardless, if I were proposing to a guy (and assuming I had a TV budget), I would have a Porsche with me, not a diamond ring. Dude, I'd rather have a Porsche than a diamond ring.
