1. All the best
This is being written Monday, so, just to cover my bases overnight, I want to congratulate Pam Anderson on her reconciliation/divorce/new marriage/incident at the Waffle House.
2. Eject!
Does anyone else get the feeling that Anderson keeps a “Divorce or No Divorce” button on her nightstand?
3. Sore subject
There’s no question the TV writers’ strike is hampering prime time. Think of how many Chicagoans were subjected to watching the Bears last night.
4. So long
Celine Dion waves goodbye after her final performance as Beauty Pageant Barbie.
5. Cruel intentions
Apparently there’s a lawsuit in a New York court that claims “Ladies’ nights” at bars are discriminatory. OK, who are these people and why are they trying to take away what little I have?
6. Yummo
Food Network announced it’s renewing Rachael Ray’s “30-Minute Meals” and picking up a new series called “Rachael’s Vacation.” Roughly speaking, they just added 235 obnoxious catchphrases per hour.
7. No go
Brad Pitt says he will not run for political office. Our collective dream of establishing a fight club to settle ties in the Senate has been shattered.
8. Parting gifts
Congratulations to “Survivor: China” winner Todd Herzog. He gets $1 million and a handsome “Future ‘Amazing Race’ contestant” T-shirt.
9. Fur sure
AFI named “Ratatouille” one of the 10 best films of the year. If rats in the kitchen makes for high art, I know of a few Oscar-worthy restaurants around here.
