We're An Olympic Fever Family

Trays Galore by Tracy Porter

I'm sure, sure, sure, that I've told you before how much I adore trays. I buy them at yard sales and second-hand shops and use them all over the place. For magazines, my coffee, my lotions & potions, my makeup, my car keys, my desk, my jewelry, (my chocolates....shhhhh), my candles, my spices, my oils, my wooden spoons, my paintbrushes, my paints and on and on and on. Plus I give them away hoping my friends and loved ones will enjoy them too! Here is my favorite Tracy Porter video. (check out her kitchen/great room..wow!) Who knew! She loves trays too. Do you?

I Rolled A Joint For You: It's Complicated

Head on over to Joni's and Linda's for a mind-blowing uncomplicated design experience. Meyers rocks. (Listen and watch Nancy Meyers explain how she creates a scene. Go here to the NY Times Movies section. Soundtrack - fab - details here.) You can read more about the set design online at Traditional Home. Killer movie. I laughed, I cried. (you can watch the trailer here....by the way this website is my Brother's company....I bookmarked it because it's the best place on the whole web to find out what's being released each week!) My date was my 14 year old Son and he even loved it!!! (Years ago...way back in the 70's, - I was known as 'The High Roller' because I could roll the sexiest, neat 'n tidy-designed joints.) By the way...when was the last time you smoked weed?

Modern Day Scrooge The Last Chapter

"I am not the Blogger I was. I will not be the Blogger I must have been but for this intercourse. Why show me this, if I am past all hope!...I will honour Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year. I will live in the Past, the Present, and the Future. The Spirits of all Three shall strive within me. I will not shut out the lessons that they teach. Oh, tell me I may sponge away the writing on this stone (blog)!”

The following morning, Modern Day Scrooge awakens with joy and love in her heart and spends Christmas Day with her family after anonymously sending a prize turkey to the Blogosphere for a massive virtual Christmas dinner. Modern Day Scrooge has become a different Blogger overnight, and now treats her fellow Bloggers with kindness, generosity, and compassion, gaining a reputation as a Blogger who embodies the spirit of Christmas.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Everyone!

(The Brand New Liberty Post Coming Soon)

THE END

Modern Day Scrooge Chapter 16

The third spirit, the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come, harrows Modern Day Scrooge with dire visions of the future if she does not learn and act upon what she has witnessed. Most disturbing to Modern Day Scrooge are visions of a pawnbroker bidding on Modern Day Scrooge's blog, stolen from her home computer by her domestic servants; of a covered corpse on her bed, presumably her own; of the callous indifference of her fellow bloggers of the stock exchange to the news of a death, again presumably Modern Day Scrooge's; and of the grief-stricken internet family following Liberty Post's death, the implication being that LP will die because of her failure to pay a just wage sufficient to care for the website. The final vision presented by the spirit is of Modern Day Scrooge's own neglected and untended grave, prompting the miser to aver that she will change her ways in hopes of changing these "shadows of what may be."

Canned cheese. Enough said.

Tacky Light Tour (dot) com. A Tacky Light Tour is a trip made with family and friends from one home or business insanely decorated for Christmas to another usually made in a passenger car, but sometimes taken in limousines, vans and tour buses. Traditionally, displays with more than 10,000 Christmas lights qualify to be included among the very best Christmas displays found on the Tacky Light Tour. OMG LOL HA HA HA LPXO

The Best Movie Scene Ever

"This is really fascinating, what's going on at this table. Let's take you and Erica. You've been around the block a few times. What are you, around 60? 63. Fantastic! Never married, which as we know, if you were a woman, would be a curse. You'd be an old maid, a spinster. Blah, blah, blah. So instead of pitying you, they write an article about you. Celebrate your never marrying. You're elusive and ungetable, a real catch. Then, there's my gorgeous sister here. Look at her. She is so accomplished. Most successful female playwright since who? Lillian Hellmann? She's over 50, divorced, and she sits in night after night after night because available guys her age want something-forgive me, they want somebody that looks like Marin. The over-50 dating scene is geared towards men leaving older women out. And as a result, the women become more and more productive and therefore, more and more interesting. Which, in turn, makes them even less desirable because as we all know, men - especially older men- are threatened and afraid of productive, interesting women. It is just so clear! Single older women as a demographic are about as fucked a group as can ever exist." - Zoe, Something's Gotta Give

A close 2nd here.

Modern Day Scrooge Chapter 13

Do you walk on deviled egg shells, sip your wine on thin ice, hold your cranberry breath? Do you bite your tongue when you chew your crispy turkey skin, imagine/dream/fantasize that your uncle slips on the gravy that just dripped on the hardwood floor or do you want to heave a pumpernickel roll at your sibling's head during 'Grace'? Do you feel like your family Christmas dinner is something like this photograph? (like something 'bull' is about to happen at any given moment?)

Consumers Boycott Tiger Woods' Endorsement Companies Because They Are Dropping Him

LP: Tiger Woods will catch that 'first stone you cast' at him. Yes he will, for he is human and that means he is allowed to and expected to make mistakes. I've had a revelation overnight listening, watching and reading all the 'Go on, Be a Tiger' bashing, hit a fever pitch (putt). Let's face it. Tiger wasn't meant to be married, that's obvious, so let's 'let him be' (and if he wants to and can work it out, great.) - if he wasn't married when all this happened, none of this would matter. As you know, one of the things that drives me c-r-a-z-y is judgemental people. None of us are perfect. Are you perfect? Prove it to me (if you think you are). I declare that the 'Boycott Tiger's Past Companies Year' to commence today and in to 2010. If a company walks away, drops, bops or banishes Tiger from their roster, then consumers around the globe will boycott said company. (Yes, I know, all of their Executives are prissy-pure-hearts with no skeletons or baggage or naughtiness in their past, present and future - I know, I know.) Let the backlash begin. 'Go on, Be a Tiger' (insert bully, hypocrite, asshole, self-righteous, bigot, dummy here) Let's see how you like it when your 'money-stream' is taken away 'just like that'. (How many people can play God? My understanding is that there is only one.)

Ah Heck

If you can't beat 'em, join 'em.
