Fox News introduces Romney sons with gay anthem
Someone made a funny over at Fox. LOL…
Here’s something I didn’t know about the iconic song: “It’s Raining Men” was written in 1979 by David Letterman sidekick Paul Schaffer and gay songwriter Paul Jabara, who died of complications from AIDS in 1992. After being turned down by Donna Summer, Grace Jones and Diana Ross, the song was eventually recorded by one-hit-wonder The Weather Girls. The LGBT community adopted the song as a gay anthem, catapulting it to the number one song in 1982.
I never knew Donna Summer and Diana Ross turned the song down. Makes me think of all the acting roles folks turn down or other songs recording artists say no to.

For the record, I have not complained at all…

I don’t know why but I just think this is fun AND funny.
Something very Pia Zadora going on here…

You should know my dogs are subjected to much of the same at my house, albeit the view of me in my underwear isn’t as interesting.

5 things that would surprise you about flight attendants
Heather Poole, a veteran flight attendant and the author of “Cruising Attitude,” recently gave ABC News’ “20/20” the inside scoop about flight attendants and flying the friendly skies that might surprise you:
!. They hate delays as much as you do
“Everybody’s always surprised to learn that we’re only paid for when the door is shut. … So if there’s a delay, or mechanical [problem], we’re not getting paid.”
2. They know when you’re hiding your cell phone call
“When you’re sitting there with your head between your legs, and you’re talking to the floor,” said Poole, “I don’t think you have a friend down there. I know what you’re doing.”
3. They have sly ways of cutting your alcohol content
Ask any flight attendant what the biggest booster of passenger misbehavior is, and the answer will be: drinking. Flight attendants don’t have to confront drunk passengers and visibly cut them off. They simply weaken the drinks.
4. They know when you’re joining the mile-high-club in the restroom
“The bathroom line just keeps getting longer and longer and longer,” Poole said. “So we knock. We pray they come out with their pants up.”
5. They know when you’re joining the mile-high-club in your seats
“When one passenger is sitting on top of another passenger, you have a pretty good idea of what might be happening there,” Poole said. “Throw that blanket away!”
Web series: “Where The Bears Are” Episode 1
Where The Bears Are – Episode 1 BEAR DOWN from Where the Bears Are on Vimeo.
I love the idea of web series. So many fantastic ideas are getting a chance to be seen by an audience. AND generally speaking, the episodes are under 10 minutes so it’s not a big investment of time to follow the stories. These are tomorrow’s major film makers.
I started watching this “mystery/comedy” series called “Where The Bears Are” and I’m liking it. Plus, imagine my surprise when I realized I know the hot “cub” Ian Parks in this first episode (and yes, he looks just like that).
I’ll be posting the episodes as they are released.
More furry fun to come.
Are you a “Romneygirl”?
From the “RomneyGirl” website:
“Miss Swiss “Bank Account” hails from Ostermundigen, Switzerland and is the proud daughter of a Nestle Chocolate factory worker and a regionally respected Cuckoo clock maker. She worked as a tax consultant for offshore bank accounts at UBS in Geneva, Switzerland from 2008-2010 where she first met Mitt Romney, who would frequently show up to the bank unannounced and throw $100 bills up in the air while shouting, “Thank God for Amnesty!”
“In 2010, Miss Swiss left Geneva (after safely depositing all of her own money into a Swiss bank account) and moved to Searchlight, Nevada, where she joined a small Swiss expat community of retired yodelers and milkmaids. It was there she bumped into Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid while burning his book “The Good Fight” during a local sheep-shearing festival. Miss Swiss told Senator Reid about Mr. Romney’s tax avoidance “because I thought it was so funny that a Senator would actually think that rich people pay taxes! So silly!” Miss Swiss has not heard from Mr. Romney since he began his Presidential run, but believes he is following her on Twitter @realromneygirl.”
“In her free time, Miss Swiss, AKA Romney Girl, enjoys watching sitcoms like Fox & Friends, climbing the Swiss Alps, making cheese fondue, and listening to her favorite pop band Aqua.”
“Romney Girl recently gained public attention for inadvertently informing Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid that that Mitt Romney had paid zero taxes in the last ten years.”
