Are Michael Jackson's children biologically his? I seem to recall them being blonde, which, Debbie Rowe is, but Michael, genetically, NSM.

they could still be blond, even with michael's genes. of course, i wouldn't put it past him to dye their hair.

In the Martin Bashir documentary, doesn't the oldest boy seem to have dark roots and dyed blond hair? I thought the interviewer commented on that.

No shadows to see here. It was rainging AND foggy on my drive to work. And Tchoupatoulis was under water. Not to mention my sidewalk. Bad day to wear heels, shoulda gone with the shrimp boots.

My family is not kissy, we're huggers. My in-laws are not really kissy either, but they do the peck on the cheek greeting that I have had to get used to. I feel a little weird kissing other people's babies, but if I'm holding them it sometimes happens. Usually on the top of the head.

I don't know, I didn't see it. I'm just basing my comment on past behavior

My child has dark roots and dyed blond hair, but I swear he is mine.

I don't want to watch the next few months of the Jackson circus, but I fear only watching everything on edited delay could prevent that. Actually, by the time the state of the union circus finishes tonight I may end up selecting the living under a rock option.

Leonardo DiCaprio has lifetime achievement?

Yep. I need to avoid all news stations if I want to retain my sanity.

I found a nice big rock just the other day Laura. I'm sure there's room, if people want to join me.

My family is very kissy and huggy. Parents, siblings, cousins, aunts and uncles, all exchange kisses and hugs. Right on the lips. It wasn't until I was out in the big real world that I found out everyone wasn't like that. My recollection of family friends growing up had the same physical behavior. I was raised in a mostly Italian area if that makes a difference.

I'm sure there's room, if people want to join me.

Thankful as always for the Buffista Island.

Hi Lee!

Someone needs to replace that groundhog.

They did several years ago. The previous Punxsatawney Phil was found dead in his burrow on Feb. 2, 2001. It was not a good sign for the coming year.

Got back from looking at the apartment. The main room of the apartment was nice, and it was a pretty good location, but the kitchen was just way too tiny -- there wasn't even room for a full-size refridgerator, just a mini-fridge. Guess I'll keep looking.
