A Selection of Recent, Random and Wholly Unrelated Observations, Volume II

The only reason to pass up an entire all-access day pass at the Sundance Film Festival is the season premiere of "American Idol."

That my father and my step-father can hold a 30-min telephone conversation about cars and tools and those lovely blonde twins that make my sister's life a daily three-ring circus, that they can laugh and engage in criminally civil banter over long-distance lines, that they love each other and call every other week to make sure the other is doing okay, that is a remarkable thing.

One's dog shouldn't smell better than one's own armpits.

A Diet Coke will not counteract nor eliminate a grilled cheese sandwich with french fries and chocolate cake.

Dustin Hoffman is shorter than my 11-yr old niece.

Sometimes you have to accept your family, no matter how inconvenient or frizzy-haired or insistent that they stick their fingers up your dog's nose.

Snow is totally overrated.

Rachel Weisz is the best British import since Liam Gallagher, and people, Liam and I go back a looooonnnngg way.

I never knew my nose was capable of such boogers.

I thought Ed Burns was cool, until he showed up to that question and answer session in a beret and denim shirt.

Sometimes a woman needs to be reminded that she is the luckiest woman in the world, that men don't usually come in such freakishly wonderful packages as he came.

    how dooce was not nominated for a bloggie is beyond the scope of reason

    dooce needs no awards to tell her she rules.

    although it is hard to believe she wasn't nominated. . .

    i nominate dooce for the golden poop award.

    jen: if i won the golden poop award, that would be, like, the best day of my life.

    wha? AMERICAN IDOL? OVER SUNDANCE?!

    Diet Coke is for soda pussies... Try the original diet beverage TAB...it will eliminate any foreign substance from your body. Sorry, it does not terminate unwanted pregnancy!

    I am in total agreement with the mighty Jimbo about Dooce and the Bloggies.

    Dooce needs a Tivo. Why pass up anything?

    But if you're home . . checkout laid off on the Sundance online festival (by OddTodd).

    mmmm....french fries & chocolate cake

    01.21.03 - 10:58 PM / 12
  • Kelledy said:

    yeah, french fries and chocolate cake are great! Dooce, you rock, too!

    Someday Dooce will show up in Leno and Letterman and/or Conan O'Brien.
    Bloggies eat your heart out.
    Anyone out there think there's a market for Dooce merchandise ? Artificial poop, a robot Chuckles, Dooce tp (extra large rolls for the woman who already has everything but _not quite_). Dooce in Playboy... the possibilities are endless.

  • Rickster said:

    I'm With Igor, you could have Dooce t-shirts, Dooce coffee mugs, etc. Seriously, check out Mr. Crunchy's site www.mistercrunchy.com, he has a merchandise link (cafepress) that sells mistercrunchy.com stuff. It's all outsourced too, he just gave the designs to cafepress and reaps the profits. And when I wear my mistercrunchy T-shirt when we play cards, it freaks him out!!

    You sick fuckers get within 3 miles of my wife's armpits and I will fucking take you.

  • Benjy said:

    Yeah, coffee mugs or t-shirts with some of dooce's logos would be cool!

    did rickster just totally post a commercial??

  • dave said:

    We need to clarify terms. I'm quite sure I'm not the only one who "nominated" Dooce for at least one Bloggie. The travesty here is that she didn't make the final cut.

    01.22.03 - 05:56 AM / 22
  • pam said:

    dooce should have won a bloggie. dustin hofman is too short for anything except to be used as a doorstop and anyone who drinks Tab, scot, should have his head examined. it tastes like shit.

    damn. i wish that diet coke was really some sort of calorie eating acid. *sigh*

    p.s. dooce - are you for good or for awesome?

    I know I nominated the fuck out of her. What happened?

  • Angelique said:

    come to think of it, when i was working in orlando, i fitted henry winkler for a suit, and damn is he ever short too!!

    two of my fav bits of wisdom:

    Don't shit where you eat.

    Beauty may be skin deep, but ugly goes way down to the bone.

    .. rock on dooce.

    if it weren't so early, i'd make a comment about coming in a package.

    Speaking of the blind reminds me, especially after yesterday's thought provoking theme, of a joke passed (pun) from father to son in my family, which is:
    Why do farts smell? So the deaf can enjoy them too! Thank you and have a pleasant day.

    i swear it's a travesty. were they doing the nominations in south florida? where is that french judge? who do i have to sleep with to get dooce on the ballot?

  • Mb. said:

    Not to say dooce don't deserve being crushed by a mountain of awards, but the bloggies rules *have* been changed, and by the new rules, dooce ain't eligible.
