Unless Wednesday never ended last night and cunningly has assumed a Thursday skin.

Well, there was no Veronica Mars last night, so this theory has possibilities.

I think I'm definitely late single. Luckily, I have so far shown no signs of denigrating Russians nor going on a shoe-buying spree during a major national disaster.

Poor Russians. Obviously they have no idea that Condi Rice just hates them on principle. She made her name during the Soviet era, and nothing I've seen says she ever came around to liking Russian forms of governance.

Such women are very rough.

Apparently, rough enough to get politicians to whine in newspapers. At least in the US, the press talks about her darth-chic wardrobe and her scary scary eyes, rather than trying to imply she's some kind of lumberjack.

I watched "Goodness Gracious Me," an "Asian sketch show," on BBC America last night. It was pretty funny, but also interesting in a cross-cultural sort of way. No deep observations, just things like, huh, that's not what "Asian" conjures up for Americans, and also wondering about the odds of such a show on a major network here.

Emily, Goodness Gracious Me was really popular when it aired over here. Got high ratings and quite a few tv awards, iirc. The most famous sketch is the 'Going for an English', I think. Did you catch that one in the episode you saw?

I am watching A Week of Dressing Dangerously right now because it has been mentioned here. I like it. I could never do it, but I like it.

Me too, though this week's wasn't quite as good as last week's. I had very mixed feelings about the wedding dress part. I kept thinking "oh, that poor dress", and while I was glad it was making her think (though WTF is up with the waiting one month), but really, that seemed more gimicky/silly than the other outfits. On the other hand, I kind of want that as one of ita's outfits.

Perkins, I thought that the wedding dress was gimicky too, but it did seem to have the desired effect of making her think.

Instead, it was from an interview with Liberal and Democratic Party of Russia (LDPR) leader Vladimir Zhirinovsky

Zhirinovsky is a total crackhead, and I'm not surprised to see tin-foil craxy things coming from him. He's quite appalling. (Not that I'm standing up for Condi, which I just could never do.)

I particularly loved this quote

"Condoleezza Rice needs a company of soldiers. She needs to be taken to barracks where she would be satisfied. On the other hand, she can hardly be satisfied because of her age.

Who else is setting their TiVo

When Court TV first approached cult film director John Waters about playing the role of the "Groom Reaper," the host of its first scripted series, dramatizing actual marriages that ended in murder, he thought they'd asked him to play the "Groom Raper."

Either way, he told TV critics at Winter Press Tour 2006, he would have said yes.

Instead he will be seen at the opening of each episode of " 'Til Death Do Us Part," attending the wedding of the happy couple, then guiding viewers through scenes from the doomed marriage until they find out how and why one spouse whacked the other.
