-- What happened to Andrae? He's teaching sewing classes, that's what. Aw. Shave your head, sweetie, you look much better that way.

-- Speaking of Project Runway, Tim Gunn and Leanne Marshall went to Capitol Hill the other day to lobby for intellectual property rights legislation. Very cool.

-- I watched The Fashion Show last night. I switched it off before I found out who got kicked off, which gives you some idea of how enthused it made me. I hate Merlin. He's ruining an awesome name by dressing like a drunken gay Technicolor lawn ornament and behaving like a penis. Not a dick, a penis. Guys who act like dicks can be entertaining on occasion. Merlin is a penis. A little penis. A micropenis, if you will.

-- 24 Great Movies to Watch With Mom My choice isn't even on the list. (Why does it have to be a "mom" movie? Why can't it be a movie my mom likes? I'd rather watch Dirty Dancing with my mom any day of the week.)

-- Howie Dorough from the Backstreet Boys and his wife had their first baby boy. Aw.

-- Oh, look, Spencer and Heidi have another gratuitous photo op. For someone who can't shut up about how wonderful it is to be married, it's funny that Heidi's not wearing her wedding ring. Neither is he, for that matter.

-- Prison Break is sending out press releases for the season finale with bars of soap. It honestly took me a minute to get why that might be a bit tacky.

-- President's budget cuts abstinence-only education, funds teen pregnancy prevention. GOOD.

-- Cheney: "Mistake" For GOP To "Moderate," Glad That Detainees Were Waterboarded Cheney is making me like Bush. At least I haven't heard from that douche in months.

I just want to put it out there that my mother dragged me to watch both Brokeback Mountain and The Manchurian Candidate. Then my grandmother (on my dad's side) and I saw Yes Man.

And both of these incidences passed without the least bit of awkward from either of them.

My grandfather was hilarious when he was trying to suggest that I should see Milk because he thought it was very good. He goes, "You're not bothered by men kissing, are you?" and I think I showed considerable restraint by not bursting into hysterical laughter at that. ;D

Maybe he meant "hot and bothered." ;-)

For the record: Good movie, thankful my mother didn't drag me to see that with her, as well.

Ooh! Another mother's movie tale, not mine: one of my friend's mothers went to watch Brokeback Mountain with her, not knowing anything but that it was pretty critically acclaimed. During The Tent Scene, apparently she asked, out loud, "what are those two doing?"

And after the movie was over and people were getting up, apparently she asked, "I still don't get it. Who was the 'girl?'"
