@unclevanya: Thank you. The woman is not retiring. Instead of being on one hour a day and distributing one magazine a month, she will now have an entire 24-hour cable channel on which to proselytize.
@unclevanya: I KNOW. I keep saying this one posts about her "quitting her show". She's only quitting her NETWORK show, even insiders say she will likely have a very similar show on the Oprah Winfrey Network.
I think people just think it makes a good story and are ignoring the obvious.
I totally bit Oprah's style and whenever I run into friends or they call me on the phone, I'll be like, "OH MY GOD, IT'S JAAAAAAAANEE DOOOOOOOOOOEEEE! AND JOOOOOHNNN SMIIIIIIIITH!!"
Awesome compilation!
Though, wifers and I were watching the Palin episode last night and I noted how her intro was not anything like above.. it was the most anticlimactic intro she's ever done save for the James Frey schooling...
Oh man, my super secret daydream of one day doing something really remarkable and getting invited on Oprah and introduced in that long, drawn-out-vowels way while a bunch of well-dressed middle class Americans smile and clap is fading away. This hurts.
@yvanehtnioj: I personally daydream of Oprah interrupting me during my story of how I lost my prosthetic limb in a fire that erupted at the orphanage I grew up in to tell the audience about that one time her dog Gracie started a fire and how darned adorable it was.
Did she think the kittens would dance on cue? Or rather chew the rhinestones off her dress, climb the curtains, hide under the stage, and eat the confetti. And the doves.
That is going to be my go-to phrase at work and home now. I like how it makes me sound really cooperative and hard-working.
"I need you to get those reports finished by five."
"I'm doing this even though there are no kittens!"
"You know, you're right! You deserve a raise."
Thanks, Jezebel for providing me with all the conversational crutches I will ever need. I shall keep this jem in a special box in my heart, right next to "I AM DOING THIS."
@Lymed: i hate shopping at westfield. maybe i just pick bad days/times to go there but whenever i do its like half of london has chosen to descend there, as well.
@rd2uk: It is distressing how the only maps in that place are by the entrances. I always feel like if you get lost in the middle YOU WILL BE STUCK IN THERE FOREVER
Huh, I actually interpreted the description above of Amy Winehouse's dad as his implying she possibly had a leaky heart valve, not a leaky implant. Especially with the earlier reports that she was hospitalized because of a bad reaction to cold medicine. Cold medicine is known to exacerbate existing heart issues...
