Do you think the people in Iraq think thw world is a safer place with Saddam gone? Maybe but not for them. See the thing about a country where there is such religious fever you need a central figure to keep the people in line. Now there is a civil war between the Shitte and Sunni factions and the funny thing is that from a Western perspective - they are the same thing. Just as Muslims probaby look at Catholics and protestants and can't understand why the Irish are fighting.
Kate moss apologized for using cocaine cause of her new clothing line contract with Hennes & Mauritz. The company said they are giving her a second chance but they want models that are "healthy, wholesome and sound, 0 body fat is good and the skinnier the better we just don't want our models using drugs to get that way. Puking has been the standard for years and if it's good enough for the others it should be good enough for Moss." A spokesperson said.
The Mirror broke the story with a video. I guess they were pissed after losing a lawsuit over Moss using drugs in 2001. So does she have to give the money back and apologize to the paper?
THRESHOLD
I liked the opening show. It's a TV version of one of the scariest movies made. Invasion of the body snatchers, the original not the remake. That movie scared the crap out of me as a kid. I think there is a bit of Invasion with Roy Thinnes there too. A good show that never got it's due. The aliens in that show looked human but couldn't move their pinkies. That's how you could tell who they were. I liked the storyline and the follow thru on Threshold.
Except - the government is supposed to protect the 'red team' above all but they leave three members sitting in a van without cover while they are sending a signal to call alien humans to the van. Huh?? But let's see where they go now. Has a chance if they keep up the premise and don't fall into the 'lets have monsters' trap. It is so much scarier to have the bad guys look like everyone else.
TWINS
A good job for Sarah Gilbert. She gets to hang out with a hottie in underwear all day. I would love that job. But since Gilbert is queer I have a hard time believing she is looking for Mr. Right. The sex jokes and the nudity are the only things that will keep this show on the air.
A 79 year old guy was rescued in New Orleans. He spent 16 days in his attic and then came downstairs. He had run out of water when they got him and some idiot from FEMA said, "Duh I don't know how long he woulda lasted without water. A-huck" Isn't that something a FEMA worker should know. How long a person can live without water?
Also - they are going to start letting people back in the city but only the rich and white cause their houses weren't damaged as much. As one politician said, "We finally got the niggers out, we sure as hell ain't gonna let them back in. Long live the white south."
