When asked last night at the Women in Film Muse Awards what she wanted to do now that “Ugly Betty” has wrapped, honoree America Ferrera said, “Sleep.”
Goodnight.

survey said
That harebrained know-nothing from Alaska began her book-signing tour with a stop in Grand Rapids, Michigan, where hundreds awaited her arrival.
As you can see by her fan’s sweater, most of these people have absolutely no clue. Hence, their heroine, Sarah Palin.
One report today said she stands to make $24 million on this book. Life, my friends, isn’t fair. Boycott this right wing crazy whenever possible.

in bad form, can you believe it?, crap, girls will be girls, haters, hos, maniacs, mayhem, morons, my nerves, no, oh the horror, survey said
Sarah Palin, mother of unwed mother Bristol Palin, is the perfect representative of the failed Republicans and allegedly religious right; she’s an imbecile who, like Heidi and Spencer (also neo-conservative trash), is seeking to extend her TVQ by taking umbrage at beloved American comic David Letterman, based on some half-baked Alaska morality that she clearly fakes.
Now she has a cause. Dave.
Following the moose-hunting moron with an idiot move, Embassy Suites (part of Hilton) has pulled their ads from Dave’s show. This means I will never stay in another of their hotels. Just like I never went to JCPenney again after they pulled their ads from the “Ellen” sitcom when she came out (now they occasionally sponsor her talk show… times change).
Horrid beauty queens always get their comeuppance (see Carrie Prejean), and Palin is soon to get hers as she finds herself the tundra-bound queen manque of a tragic campaign that trumpeted its own inanity with the giddiness of a constipated bus driver… oh, wait, that was McCain.
Then again, I kinda hope the Republicans put her up against Obama in 2012, because we need the comedy.

in bad form, can you believe it?, chexy takes on, girls will be girls, haters, last hurrahs, maniacs, morons, my nerves, no, oh the horror, politics, survey said, whatever
Moronic Miss California USA Carrie Prejean was dumped by Donald Trump yesterday after she continued to behave like a coozette to pageant officials. Some beyotches just nevah learn.
I fully expect that she’ll now make a smooth transition to television news, where bubble blondes prosper, or get knocked up by execs. She may even be nominated to run as Veep with the Republican presidential candidate in 2012. Them haters love them some dumbass beauty queens!
She’s got everything the Republicans like — she’s a churchgoer, a gay-hater, although there is that pesky little problem of her mom maybe bein’ a lesbo, that can be difficult, especially when they keep makin’ passes at your fellow contestants.
So it’s onward for Carrie, as she becomes a spokesho for the John Birchers, or a contestant on a Trinity game show, or just another hairsprayed former beauty queen who has to marry some dumb football player for a meal ticket. Karma, peeps, is a beyotch.

Congratulations to the phenomenal Tyler Hinman, 24, (left), who for the fifth year in a row is the American Crossword Puzzle Tournament winner. Congrats also to genius constructor Trip Payne (center) (also seen in “Wordplay” and the first contestant on “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire” to win $32,000) who repeated last year’s second place finish, and writer/puzzle editor/humorist Francis Heaney (right) who placed third.
This was the 32nd annual tournament, organized by New York Times Crossword Editor Will Shortz (above right).

in hooray, legends, little known facts, sensations, survey said, wonders, ya gotta love it
The New York Times reports that a University of Maryland study found that more happy people spend less time watching television, and unhappy people spend more time watching TV. At publication time of this post, Bush has only 60 days left in office. This makes me elated. This was no tiny survey; they used surveys of 45,000 Americans over 35 years, collected by the U of Chicago.
The researchers could not tell “whether unhappy people watch more television or whether being glued to the set is what makes people unhappy.”
I’d write more, but I have to watch Jeopardy now. It’s the Teen Tournament so I can feel really smart. In the meantime, the study didn’t say anything about watching YouTube, so get happy and watch this.

in chexy takes on, i love you too, legends, little known facts, reality tv, remembering, survey said, wrecksAccording to the latest polls, Obama is way out in front, and it’s looking more like our long national Republican nightmare is coming to a close, with the Reagan revolution going down in the flames of what happens to a deregulated market. Can you smell the big goodbye?

in hope, politics, survey saidWhen asked what she really had to offer the American public, Dumbernor Sarah Palin showed her upraised bare palm and said, “A whole lotta nuthin’!”
The moose huntin’ Witch of Wasilla let her hair down for an event in Wisconsin, where a CNN /Time/Opinion Research poll of 859 voters taken October 3-6 shows Obie ahead of Grampy 51%-46%.
She can always get work as a waitress at Kate Mantilini.

in daydream believer, hot messes, little known facts, politics, survey saidIt’s Debate Night again in America, with Obie and McCainus trundling off to Nashville to have a go at each other’s jugulars amid a plunging stock market and fears of a worldwide economic grilled cheese sandwich, which will undoubtedly bear the image of Sarah Palin. I don’t like watching Grandpa McCranky scold that kindly fellow from Illinois. I just hope Frank Capra has scripted the ending for this battle of Evil vs. Good.
Grandpa should be in extra cranky mode tonight after the latest polls show him slipping faster than a nursing home senior on a shower floor with no safety tread. It should be fun to watch him amble around the Town Hall unassisted. Expect him to turn on more of that Cheneyesque charm … and expect Obie to stay the course with the same poised responses, bolstered by his upswing in the polls.
McCheese’s numbers won’t be helped by the mortgage quake about to be followed by the tsunami of credit default. As the Brits used to say, “Keep Calm and Carry On.”
Tune in at 9PM ET/6PM PT. The Rove machine should have Gramps in a lather, and it will be irritatingly good fun to watch him get his nasty on. This is truly reality TV.

Here’s the latest just released in the Quinnipiac Poll. Looks like Grandpa McCranky has his work cut out for him. Then again, they steal elections in this country. Biden and Palin will “debate” on Thursday — and if she’s anything like her moose-caught-in-the-headlights performance with Katie Couric, it should be highly entertaining.
Here are the Quinnipiac Poll results:
| “FLORIDA: Obama 49 – McCain 43 pre-debate; Obama 51 – McCain 43 post-debate; OHIO: Obama 49 – McCain 42 pre-debate; Obama 50 – McCain 42 post-debate; PENNSYLVANIA: Obama 49 – McCain 43 pre-debate; Obama 54 – McCain 39 post-debate Friday’s presidential debate, Gov. Sarah Palin’s sagging favorability and more voter confidence in Sen. Barack Obama’s ability to handle the economy are propelling the Democrat to wider likely voter leads over Republican John McCain in Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania, according to simultaneous Quinnipiac University Swing State polls released today. | |
| No one has been elected President since 1960 without taking two of these three largest swing states in the Electoral College. Results from the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe- ack) University polls conducted before and after the debate show: | |
|
|
| More than 84 percent of voters in each state say the debate did not change their mind. But by margins of 13 to 17 percent, voters in each state say Obama did a better job in the debate. And by margins of 15 to 27 percent, independent voters in each state say Obama won.” | |
