Baby McConaughey

Matthew McConaughey is having a baby with his (24 year old model!) girlfriend, Camila Alves. She's about three months along.

Does anyone else think the McConaughey offspring will be running around naked in the back yard, fertilizing the lawn?

There Will Be Blood (Spoilerish)

Who thinks Paul and Eli are the same person despite references in the movie to Paul being a separate brother and PTA's casting of 2 different actors? Anyone? I am just not convinced that Paul and Eli are two different people.

Movie adaptation of "The Road"

Charlize Theron will be joining Viggo Mortensen in the movie adaptation of Cormac McCarthy's "The Road." I really don't like the idea of making a movie out of the book. I think the book is beautiful and sparse and I don't want to see it translated onto the screen. And how much are they going to show? Are they going to show dead baby carcass roasted on a spit? Or maybe a dirty, skinny naked boy bathing for the first time in weeks? I don't know; this idea vexes me.

French Scandal

French President Nicolas Sarkozy supposedly married model/singer Carla Bruni last week. This has caused quite a stir in France where they find such behavior unbecoming of a president and find Carla Bruni to be distasteful. Carla has been with famous men such as Kevin Coster, Donald Trump, and Mick Jagger. She was also with this French guy and then had an affair with his married son. They ultimately had a baby together. Bruni has also been quoted saying that she's not into monogamy. She seems like quite a... catch. Good luck with that Sarkozy, be sure to keep her away from your sons Pierre and Jean! At least Bruni seems less crazy than other models of a certain age such as Janice Dickenson.

You know your workplace has become too casual when...

You are trying to figure out what to wear to work and you contemplate your black yoga/casual sleep pants.

Rock of Love 2

I absolutely positively refuse to DVR this show but I did catch some last night. I wasn't going to watch but then I noticed something very interesting. Megan, the season 3 winner of "Beauty and the Geek" is a contestant. She looks much better. Did she use her winnings to get plastic surgery? More importantly, is she a reality fame whore? Finally, didn't her geek teach her better than this?
