    In other TV news, has anyone else been plagued by those Idaho Potatoes commercials? I seldom watch daytime TV but I was sick so today was an exception. Anyway, there are these crazy commercials stressing the health benefits of Idaho potatoes ("not just any potatoes!") with this really raspy-voiced lady who pronounces Idaho like "eye-ho" and it drove me nuts (it could also be my cold). She also claims that "exercise and a diet with potatoes" help you to stay trim, which is true in some contexts but it nonetheless made me laugh because I can totally see somebody going to a grocery store, looking at potatoes, and remembering, "oh yeah, potatoes help you lose weight!" #tyrafaketoenails

    I worked at a tanning salon in high school (ooooh the stories) and knew a couple girls that came in who had acrylics on their toenails, but never as long and gaudy as that. I'm not sure the reasoning behind it, as I was always too weirded out to ask. #tyrafaketoenails

    This is pretty embarrassing, but I have had an acrylic tip on my toe. My cleats were too tight when I played lacrosse, and after a long game, I lost my big toe-nail. I was super self conscious about it, so I went to the nail salon and those nice ladies fixed me up with a new talon. I'm glad I'm not alone. Thanks Ty-Ty. #tyrafaketoenails

    I still don't understand how some people just flat-out HATE Martha. She seems like she doesn't take herself too seriously despite being a perfectionist. But I'm biased because I got nothing but love for my Martha. #uncle

    @JessickerFletcher: I love her, too. I watch her show sometimes in the morning. One time she randomly called Snoop Dog just to say hi. Another time she was cooking with Ludacris (who admitted he doesn't really cook) and she kept talking with him about music stuff to the point that he was like, "you're really into hip hop" and she was like, "yeah, I love it. I work out to it and get the audience warmed up with it every day." I find her charmingly in control, but adventuresome and quite the risk taker. She's kinda cool. #uncle

    @HidingInCanada: The "whole insider trading thing" did really bother me at first, especially because her/her lawyer's actions gave off the whole "I'm rich and shouldn't be held to the same standards as everyone else" vibe, but in the end she served her time and it really was a victimless crime so her and I are still cool. #uncle

    @JessickerFletcher: Man, victimless? I don't know about that. It pisses me off that someone like her would be sentenced for such a short time, when a brown person who robs a convenience store can be sent away for years. Her crimes have probably affected more people.

    And it also drove me crazy how non-chalant she (and EVERYONE else) seemed to be about the whole thing -- remember how her first post-prison appearance was all about how she "wore a poncho", and how no one talked at all about what she did?

    I guess a large part of it is that I just don't get her personal appeal. Like, I laughed along with everyone else at the Snoop Dogg appearance, but I don't get why anyone would really want to spend more time on her than they need to. #uncle

    @HidingInCanada: At the time that happened, I was occassionally temping in finance. Numerous guys, for no apparent reason, told me if she was a man she never would have gotten in trouble. I think the class/race issue remains, but she didn't kill anyone or pull a Bernie Madoff. #uncle

    @clevernamehere: I heard Rosie O'Donnell say the same thing about her.

    I don't understand how sexism plays into Martha's sentencing whatsoever. Someone needs to make that case for me.

    And yeah, compared to the epic feats of douchebaggery we saw in 2008, I'd say Martha's crimes were pretty minor. #uncle

    She already shared this on her show, with Fran Drescher of all people, while making some pancake/cake hybrid.

    She always flirts with these hosts (Leno, Letterman, King). I find it adorable, esp. as a complement to her seemingly tightly-wound personality. #uncle

    I'm 2.5 years older than my boyfriend. I guess that's close enough that we're of the same generation. When we first started seeing each other, I thought about it way more than I think about it now. And no, I don't think he thinks of me as his mother. I think he thinks of me as a hot chick!

    His mother was 10 years older than his father. #cougars
