Elizabeth Hurley. Who knew?
The reaction to reporters and others who bring up the dark side of Kobe’s history is a perfect example of what is fundamentally wrong with how we talk about things these days. It’s just amazing how you’re not allowed to disagree with the narrative.
Never thought these words would come out of my mouth, but … Mitt Romney is the one member of Congress who did the right thing. Took a principled stand and stuck to it regardless of the consequences.

Yeah not me.
Ever. You can never disagree with the narrative. Which is not very ‘open minded’ if you ask me. It’s same bad difference as the closed minded individuals whose views of the world are so warped.
I cannot imagine we are here. In a place where Rubio is heralded for his opposition to the drilling program Trump is pushing in FL and Romney is lauded for being a voice of reason.
Wow. Just wow.

The Hurley article I would have missed had it not been for you. Well, lucky her for not having to exercise. (I want to come back as Liz.) Sorry to see Frank go, but I still have you.😊 Best Super Bowl game ever. Once the defensive coaches figured out how to stop the rush Patrick Mahomes was spectacular. Jay Z thinks he is a country so why stand for ours. Pelosi and Shumer are a disgrace. They should move to Iowa where the party really shines. As a believer in animal rights, I don’t think Vick deserves to walk among human beings. Pete Rose needs to get out. Just get out. Kirk Douglass lived one hell of a life. Outstanding post, Marc. A lot to think about here. Thank you.

And I have YOU, John. Let’s keep to the charted course matey. And toast to Frank, because it’s our duty.
Mahomes has the very real chance to be the best ever. Three years in, he’s making one hell of a case. He’s just a joy to watch.
Good point about Jay-Z.
Pelosi and Shumer have become a bad variety show. I’m sad about that because we needed so much more from the democratic party.
I think he’s done good since his incarceration, but I will never forget nor forgive.
Pete Rose, I was all for putting him in the Hall based on his playing career. But he can’t shut his yap!
They don’t write them like Kirk Douglas anymore.

B,
I promise I won’t leave 26 notes to match! I will say, Frank’s leaving the blogosphere is bittersweet with a touch of sadness.
Elizabeth Hurley is one lucky broad if she basically doesn’t do much but be active… I gotta stop eating and sitting, apparently.
Gayle and anyone else who tries to bring up anything that might soil the truth is annoying and I agree with Mark.
Brady’s gonna go play for our Dolphins, right? 😉
Kirk Douglas. Thanks for your fabulous run.
What a fabulous Super Bowl (I know, I know, I only saw the last nine minutes – but what a nine minutes!)
Kudos to Romney. You guys need a few more to grow a set…
No need to give Vick more time. Guys like him should go find a quiet job somewhere and right their wrongs.
Love Zazzy and this list. A fun read, mon ami. Merci beaucoup 😉

No 26 notes, eh? That’s understandable. Especially seeing as how it took me a while to complete this post, LOL.
I would love to believe the girl but yanno . . we really don’t know if this is natural or some kind of lab experiment. Just saying.
It’s not about being open minded with these peeps. They are simply the other side of the equation yelling right back at the knuckleheads on the other side. They believe they are right and there is no convincing them otherwise.
No Brady. We don’t want him and we don’t need him! But of course. if he REALLY has his sights set on being in Miami . . it’s a free country.
103 years worth of a fabulous life.
All you needed to see was the part you done seen. That’s where it all happened for the Chiefs.
I can’t believe Romney actually came through in this instance!
I am done with Vick. He’s done good since then but it doesn’t matter to me and it never will.
