Another day, another drill!! I never really thought I would be as commited to this as I am. But it seems like once I start typing I cant stop. As long I have energy and ideas I will keep cranking these out! So..on with the show, er I mean Drill!!
-Condelezza Rice is being BLASTED in the senate (Well actually, mainly by Democrats in the Senate) as she prepares to take over the role of Secretary of State. They are attacking her from every angle, trying to shred her credibility. Everything from her handling of post 9/11 America to the POW scandals of Iraq. At one point, Ms Rice asked that they stop attacking her on a personal level and stick to the subjects at hand. All I can say is how can someone who did such a horrible job as National Security Advisor be promoted to Secretary of State??? How does that make sense? It doesnt! I guess because she tells Bush what he wants to hear, she will always be assured of a cozy cabinet position. Lets just hope that she does a better job now, than she did in her previous post.
-I know, I said I wouldnt be too politcal in this journal. But there was no helping it. I mean this thing is all over the news!!
-The Dodgers FINALLY did something right. The team opened up their checkbook and re-signed Cesar Izturis AND Eric Gagne to new contracts. The re-signing of Izutris keeps the Dodger infield stable at shorstop. The other three positions are toss ups right now. Locking up Gagne is a HUGE confidence booster for the fans of this team. Not only is he the best closer out there, he is by far the most popular player on this team. People no longer leave Dodger Stadium early to beat the traffic. They all stay just to see this guy pitch. Think of all the money they have made off those people who decide to stay late, and might buy an extra soda or two. The value of this guy cant be measured on the field alone. Congrads Mr McCourt and Mr Depodesta. You guys finally got it right!
-"Elektra" is already being written off as the first Big Bomb of the year. You have to feel for Jennifer Garner. Had she been able to go out and promote this movie it might have done better than it did this past weekend. However, after she came down with her viral infection she was ordered by doctors to stay in bed, thus canceling ALL her talk show appearances. Well, at least she still has Alias. ;-)
-Another year, another American Idol. The fourth edition of the star making show, premiered with its usual mix of good auditions, bad auditions and HORRIBLE audtions. There was no William Hung in episode one. But they still have more cities to show us!! But we do have a winner for weirdest audition. That one girl, Mary at the end of the show. Not only did she sing bad, but she basically admitted she was crazy. After her audition was over, she asked if they wanted her to sing using her "real" voice. ??????..When asked what she meant by that comment, she launched into some tirade about having many voices and how they all told her she sang good. She then relayed what one of the voices was telling her to the judges. After she left the room, she was literally arguing with herself!! Yikes! Hopefully someone out there recognized this girl needs help and that she gets it soon!!
-Hopefully Ashlee Simpson gets help soon too! She has a REALLY bad case of denial. She seems to blame her recent troubles on everything but herself. Now, if she only put that much effort into her singing......
-OK, I'm talking about Ashlee Simpson. That means its time to go! Thanx for reading and have a good one!
