Hey how about the news about bony-ass Ann Coulter plagiarizing? Ah, satisfaction, and a mimosa for me.

Blessings upon the martini drinker and the mimosa lover splashing on Coulter. The Heretik will be most joyous. Or more joyous.

Morrissey has a few words for Ms. Coulter:
If you must write prose/poems
The words you use should be your own
Don't plagiarise or take "on loan"
'Cause there's always someone, somewhere
With a big nose, who knows
And who trips you up and laughs
When you fall
Who'll trip you up and laugh
When you fall

ACK! Helloscan is driving me crazy! I 'redecorated' my site, and if I post anything, blogger deletes the helloscan, and I have to start over. wtf?
Posted by: Desi | July 20, 2005 at 08:50 PM
Let there be music, let there be dancing, but let no one visit the press pool unchaperoned.

OpenMike, the martini was just the way I like 'em, shaken, not stirred, and the company excellent. I bid you all a good night, and pleasant dreams all.

Evening all...
Our little corner of Oregon was spared the heat today..but we'll be back in it tomorrow. We spent the day painting my daughter's room. Just made her a little bed on the sofa to escape the fumes.
A margarita on the rocks, if you please.
