I sincerely want there to be a Real Housewives of Appalachia very soon. They can follow me--I'll volunteer. It can show us all drinking Mountain Dew and supervising our kids at Little League practice, where we say witty things in deep accents and discuss what is on sale at Wal-Mart this week or what kind of new double wide trailer we are going to get. Maybe a couple of us can even be on oxycontin and/or disability payments. Stereotypes: they are fun!

That's a fairly classy comment from Linday Lohan on Natasha Richardson. I was half bracing myself for a repeat of the "be adequite" epistle, so this is definitely an improvement.

Vanessa Redgrave is a great actress who has appeared in numerous dramatic roles during her life. It is rather trite of Fox news to see parallels in one Broadway play she was in and her daughetr's sad demise. Vanessa played Mary Queen of Scots who died at the age of 44 just like her daughter. I have seen Vanessa on stage playing a mother who has lost her adult child in plays other than Didion's. Drawing parallels with previous roles is as pointless as the British papers solemnly proclaiming that the Redgrave acting dynasty is under a "curse."

I love Dita Von Teese. Just love her. It doesn't surprise me that Marilyn would be spouting off apologies. After the smoke cleared I guess he realized what a bombshell and awesome person he tossed aside!

Gossip Girl spin-off: there are like, these girls, and they like, like these boys, but they also like some boys more than other boys and some junk... and some of the girls don't like some of the other girls...

"You know what's cool? How the new Real Housewives Of New Jersey - Italian ladies with mob ties - isn't stereotypical. At all"

Sigh. It's bad enough we have "Say Yes to the Dress." Come on, TV. We're not all trashy mob princesses. More Giada!

@Yitzhak: I love "Say Yes to the Dress"! All those "princesses" in their $20,000 gowns marrying guys named Tony and Guido - cracks me the hell up everydamnedtime. And they don't look any better in those jacked-up dresses than my sister did in her $600 David's Bridal dress this summer.

Also, that one skeevy dress they all seem to like - the lace, see-through corset thing. HID.E.OUS!!

Hey, Evan, STFU. Rihanna needs to listen, because everyone and his uncle is screaming at the top of their lungs to get her to realize that hanging out with Chris Brown is going to be bad for her health.

I wonder what in the world Dita Von Teese and Marilyn Manson fought about? Whose gimmick they were living more?

And everyone.... Kanye is not dressed like a Christmas nutcracker. I'd say.... more like a member of the Jacksons during the Victory tour.

And finally..... WHo throws a cat? Honestly.

Seriously Bravo, what's next, the Housewives of Boston, where the ladies all live in the posh parts of Southie and drink liquor all day and have ridiculously exhaggerated accents? As an Italian (and a Bostonian) I say, screw you and your stupid stereotypes and your meaningless show. Yeah that's right, I'm cranky today.

@PumpkinWhoopies: you'd have to have one housewife from Southie who married into a Back Bay family that looked down on her because she was Irish and drank all day. And she could drive by Cranberry Street and throw liquor bottles out the window, and then tell the driver to "pahk the cahr in Hah-vud yaaaahd."

Parvo is an insidious, nasty virus, and very few animals recover from it.

Our local Animal Control Bureau just had an outbreak this past week, and sadly, dogs died. It can be carried in on your shoes, in the dirt, in many ways.

Vaccinate your dogs, people!! I have yet to meet an autistic dog, though some might disagree.

From the eulogies it sounds as if Natascha Richardson was a genuinely kind and warm person. Does the fact that someone was physically beautiful make their early death even more poignant? I have often puzzled over this ever since Diana's death. So many people said at the time that her demise was especially tragic becuse she was so young and so beautiful, as if, somehow, her death would have not have warranted quite such an outpouring of grief had she been more homely looking.

@Rare Affinity: You're absolutly right. Remember how Mother Theresa died right after Princess Diana, and it wasn't covered nearly as much.

Diana was a great humanitarian, but she was no Mother Theresa. But she was younger and "Beeyootiful".

@Rare Affinity: Her youth is important because there's often a sense that she hadn't gotten to live her fair share of time, that she hadn't been able to liver her life to the fullest, and that's tragic. As for her beauty, not only is it highly valued, but we tend to see it as an indicator of virtue (as in fairy tales, when all the bad people are ugly and all the good people are pretty).
