Bits and Pieces

4 degrees of separation from Clint Eastwood doesn't exactly make my day. Though it was interesting to learn that my former high Math teacher and coach is the father of Clint Eastwood's wife Dina, whom also attended Mission San Jose High school in Fremont, CA. I guess that's why graduation tradition is for when the principle hands a diploma to a past problem student he says "Do you feel lucky punk?" **** Some of the finest lines can come from TV shows which aren't really known for being a comedy. I was reminded of this fact while watching a recent rerun episode of the ABC Family channel's series Kyle XY. It featured, a tomboy teenager (with two moms by the way) who was having trouble with the concept of glamour. Preparing for her first prom she seeks a friend's advice, walks in wearing a ridiculous amount of makeup and says "I want to look Va-Va Voomy for Josh but I keep coming up with vampire clown whore!" I want whoever wrote that line to be my BFF. ***
An upcoming event at the San Francisco Zoo will teach visitors about the mating behavior of animals, yes, the birds and the bees is being called 'Woo At The Zoo.' I can't wait for the following month when they present how animals go to the bathroom called 'Poo at the Zoo.' *** Surprising news that the George W. Bush Library will be finished sooner than expected. The renovated phone booth will be complete on Friday when both books arrive. *** Call it fate, call it irony that the week ABC's hit series Lost returns for a new season, a new presidential administration takes over to lead our country away from having been Lost for the last 8 years. *** Controversial singer Amy Winehouse has spent £1 million to start her own record label and has signed her 13 year old goddaughter as the first signing. The fact that they are not blood relatives is obvious since the girl looks nothing like an anorexic crack whore. Winehouse has been dating Rugby player Josh Bowman while her estranged husband Blake Fielder-Civil serves a prison sentence. But oddly, she was shocked to learn that Blake plans to divorce her upon his release. Winehouse stated "I still love Blake. I won't let him divorce me. Blake is the male version of me, we're a perfect match." Sorry, Amy, everbody knows that the male version of you is Keith Richards.
