Jennifer working the swayback. I'm having a hard time finding a profile pic in which she's not working it. It's easier to see when she's in motion and they capture her in profile.

I would have cried before I could even get to the prostrating. I embarrass easily.

I think crying first is key. I also think that quitting before dying means you're truly repentant.

I don't think anyone really believed that they were just going to let you keep movies as long as you want, so they were looking for the catch from the get-go

I know people that bought it -- a co-worker was burned by it, and I'd be surprised if he was alone. VERY.

She has swayback? That picture is not flattering at all. Is there a cure for swayback?

Having the baby. I've got the exact same problem. But I don't look nearly as pretty in a black, maternity ballgown, dammit.

Jennifer working the swayback.

I'm blaming Paris Hilton for this pose. She's been perfecting it since she was 15. I think Nicole Kidman also works this pose but I don't have easy access to a picture of it.

Umm, Jennifer had swayback waaaay before she was even pregnant. If years of dance didn't correct it, I'm not sure that anything can.

Blockbuster's marketing was very shady. If you weren't paying attention to the fine print it did seem like you were going to be charged any late fee.

When I worked at Blockbuster we'd have people come in all the time with movies that were a week late because the customers didn't realize they were being charged the full fee every day it was out.

I went to Blockbuster to rent stuff when Mom had her eye surgery, they really only had dvds for the new releases. Even then the selection was limited. My aunt sends everyone blockbuster cards from G'ma for christmas (since G'ma can't buy anything her self). I've used the cards to buy used dvds.

But I don't look nearly as pretty in a black, maternity ballgown, dammit.

See, now I had a very different reaction. I was thinking, she's a pretty woman, she's carrying it well, she's wearing a fricking ball gown--why does she look like such a dork?

I think I'm happy there has never been formal wear--not to mention paparazzi--during my pregnancies.

Paris Hilton doesn't stand like JG. Her hips are slung forward. JG's are way back.

Fuckity fuck FUCK.

BREAKING NEWS New Orleans mayor Ray Nagin suspends return of evacuees to the city, citing the threat from strengthening Tropical Storm Rita.

This is not allowed to happen. I will pull a Superman and rotate the fucking planet backwards if I have to.

Oy, Dana. Here's to hoping it's being over-paranoid, just for safety's sake.

I've heard that one of my cousins who evacuated up to NY won't be returning. She's starting school up North.
