Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I am more creeped out by the incesty vibe than the topless young woman vibe
Ah, see, I'd read nothing about her father's direct involvement in the provocative (wow, it's hard for me not to type provocateuse there) photos. Just that the pictures were vetted on the spot.
Disney's having a hell of a time with its child stars. Course, this scandal is pretty mild, comparatively.
There's a robin building a nest right outside my window!
Goodnews is my router works ffine. Bad news is that my laptop may be toast. This post is courtesy of our PS3. If you think the iphone keys are tough to use, try a gaming controller.
Need a bluetooth keyboard stat.
Does she just do laundry all the time?
I read "I own one pair of blue jeans" as "not 20 different pairs", rather than as "I wear jeans every day (and they're always the same pair)".

OH! That reminds me that I saw my first dead baby bird of dead baby bird season this morning. Fallen from one of the two nests under my back porch awning. bummer.
er...not to gloom all over the happy robin story.
Cash, you can plug a USB keyboard into the PS3 -- cheaper and/or you might have a spare hanging around, if it's just for temporary use. "Typing" with a game controller is utter hell.
I think the "scandal" is ridiculous. I think it's partly media-manufactured, and partly mass hypocrisy - how many people let their 15 year olds, or their 12 year olds, wear makeup? How many people read fashion magazines, where many of the models are 15 and most of them got their start by 15 even if they are 19 now? I think the Cyrus family should have said, "We were working with a world-famous photographer and doing something creative; this is not meant to be a reflection of who Miley is." Miley is an actress (well, sort of, you know). Lots of 15 year old actresses have done much more risque stuff in films.
Cyrus's parents were at the shoot, including her dad Billy Ray who also posed for photographs with his 15-year-old daughter. Although Cyrus’s parents left before the controversial photograph – in which the singer is actually clothed but appears to be nude – was taken, her grandmother and her teacher were present.[link]
The picture with her dad looks harmless enough. She looks glam beyond the age of 15, but not overly sexed up.
I read "I own one pair of blue jeans" as "not 20 different pairs", rather than as "I wear the same jeans every day".
It's just that she says she has four black dresses and one pair of jeans in rotation. Doesn't sound like much to work with, if you're going to start describing your outfit.
Speaking of which, I really need to decide what I'm wearing to work. High of 76, to what does that translate?
