What's the matter with a little dumbification! Also, I think that airbrushed covers are probably goign to turn out to be nicer books than un-airbrushed. Friends don't let friends read ultra-cheapo romances!
Kyle Chandler isn't actually from Chicago. I think he's from Georgia (originally) and then New York - where he really grew up.
Really? I wonder what kind of mushmouth he is when he's at home! Probably you could enter him in a Knowle-Rohr-off with poor Robert Patrick, plus a bunch of contestants chewing on taffy.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I have no idea who those people are.

Ah. No, don't watch it.

The principal, Buffie Simmons-Peart, confiscates explicit romance novels with airbrushed covers, saying they have a they have a “dumbifying” influence.
As opposed to so many other things kids read? Bonus points for "dumbifying" though.

Hee! I do have my rubber chicken here--maybe I should just hang it up by its neck instead of its feet, and see if anyone gets the inference.
That's ridonkulous, Kathy.
I've had the damn thing up for over a month now, and I only get a complaint filed (with HR, for God's sake! Couldn't they have said something to me directly?) now that the printer right next to where I had it hanging is being fixed, and a few IT people and one outside repairman have been the only new people that I can think of that might have read it this week.

Seriously.

I don't know about that.

I don't know about that.I think anybody named Buffy with an -ie should get serious props for being able to say dumbifying with a straight face.

Yeah, maybe.

She should totally drop Walter (who at least is trying, but he just doesn't get her new life) and hook up with Henry! He was dorkily cute at their Halloween sushi lunch, but smoking hawt in that red sweater at the Xmas party.
I started reading romances in 6th grade, and my friends in junior high would mock my reading choice, but it wasn't until high school that I had a teacher do the same. My English teacher junior year would occasionally take the Silhouette book I had on the top of my stack of school books on top of my desk and read a page at random out loud. That didn't bother me so much as the fact that she would fold the front half of the book to the back to do so!!! I hate it when people do that with their own books, and if she wasn't my teacher I would have snatched that book out of her hand and forbade her from ever touching my books again. Instead, I just nicely waited until she was done, then requested she not fold it back next time, but she always did. Grr...

I need to catch up with Ugly Betty. I only ever saw the pilot ep, and even then I missed parts, but I really liked what I saw.
