And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I think it was announced after TDS taped yesterday, but I can't wait for tonight.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Like I needed another reason to want to make out with Jon.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Like I needed another reason to want to make out with Jon.

Did you see him snark on Star Jones "It was a blessing that the tsunami didn't strike until I left the area!"

hip deep in pie

That was lovely. And he was en fuego last night with the bit on the opening of Congress.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I did. Dude, what the hell was she thinking? I can see being glad you weren't there, guiltily glad, but glad. Saying on national tv that you were blessed? Assish.

Plus, it always makes my skin crawl when people do that that sort of, as Jon said, "Whew, I was just in a convertable last month!" Dallas papers have a huge case of the "Coulda been me!"s and it drives me batty.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Did you see him snark on Star Jones "It was a blessing that the tsunami didn't strike until I left the area!"

The actual quote being something like: "Honestly, how far up your own ass do you have to be make a statement like that?"

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The part I liked best was calling it not a blessing, but an oversight.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Did you see him snark on Star Jones "It was a blessing that the tsunami didn't strike until I left the area!"

That was beautiful. I couldn't believe the clips they were showing.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

From Sky Showbiz (UK):

**************

Poor old Jennifer Lopez, life really is a tad tough and she has oodles of dreadful things to moan about - most notably the fact that she wants to be called Jennifer and NOT J.Lo.

The singer/actress has revealed that she wants everyone to just drop the whole J.Lo thing because that's not who she is, actually.

"I'm not J.Lo, she's not a real person. She was just a bit of fun that got really crazy. I've never been anyone but Jennifer," she said.

According to the World Entertainment News Network, Ms Lopez wants to bury the reputation associated with J.Lo and just be known as Jennifer - i.e. Jenny won't do either.

Despite producing a song entitled Jenny From The Block, the star is adament that it's Jennifer from now on - well, that is until Jennifer proves to contain too many syllables to fit in a tune.

The Lopez lady is so keen to communicate this new naming demand that she almost called her latest album, Call Me Jennifer, however she dropped the catchy title in favour of Rebirth, as she explains:

"I was going to call the album 'Call Me Jennifer' because that would be my way of saying goodbye to the whole J.Lo thing. But 'Rebirth' is perfect because it means so much more."

Jennifer now joins the elite list of name-changing stars such as her ex, P. Diddy who used to be known as Puff Daddy and Brian McFadden who opted for a slight spelling change from the Bryan of Westlife that he was.

Plus there's Courteney Cox who reverted to this after a brief dalliance as Courteney Cox Arquette until she presumably decided that including her husband's name made signing autographs quite a lengthy process and then there's Liz (Elizabeth if you please) Hurley who gets very shirty about being called Liz by those who are not her buddies.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

She should talk to the Olsen Twins about that preferred name crap. Be happy people talk about you or call you anything. You hear that Marky Mark. and I'm looking at you too Ricky Schroeder.
