"2nd Verse Same as the 1st: The Week In Review"




A suspect turned himself in confessing to the murder of Jon Benet´Ramsey.... The tragedy here is that it is very difficult to even conceive the little beauty queen as an innocent victim of an horrific crime when the only images we've seen of her are as an "adult." The Ramsey's have driven this machine since the discovery of their daughter's body. John and Patsy Ramsey have carried a terrible secret for ten years: they know the real killer of their daughter and will protect him forever.

Actor - Director, Mel Gibson was sentenced....to four years probation for driving under the influence, defaming Jews, taking VERY bad pictures with female fans, and claiming to own Malibu. Somewhere, Barbara Streisand is very pissed.

Actor Haley Joel Osment may face six years in prison....for crashing his car a month ago under the influence and posessing marijuana. Something tells me he was seeing more than dead people that night.

"Snakes on a Plane" opened in theaters this Friday....I have nothing really to say here.

"Desperate Housewives" actress Marcia Cross is miffed at "The View's" Barbara Walters....for asking her if she was a lesbian over a year ago. Cross recalls: "She (Walters) told me she was going to enquire about the rumor, and I asked "Why?" Walters responded "that it was a hot topic." Cross asked the subject not be brought up as her parents were in the audience and more importantly it was tabloidy AND NOT TRUE. Walters "went there" on the air prompting Cross to say she will never do another interview with "The View" creator. Walters is now a caricature of a journalist. Say this three times: "View has no Validity without Viera." Barbara do us all a favor and exit stage right, left, back, sign-off or whatever is people like you do to shut up!

No sooner N'Sync crooner Lance Bass admitted he is gay....he is denying rumors that his relationship with reality star Reichen Lehmkuhl is in trouble. Lehmkul has gone on record admitting that he liked it when things were a bit more quiet. Good luck there Reichen.

"We're tired of professional athletes marrying Playboy Playmates".... was quoted this week in a Chicago newspaper. There seems to be an epidemic of this in Major League Baseball with the likes of San Diego Padre's Mike Piazza and Chicago White Sox's Scott Podsednik (a favorite of this blog.) Podsednik married one of the 'groupie chicks" in that awful Kid Rock, Scott Stapp tour bus sex video. Both Podsednik and Piazza are rarely seen or photographed with their "bunny" spouses. You know where I'm going with this one.

And how was your week?
