Everyone that came up in the 'hood, can bowl and roll.

So says Snoop's "honorary son" on the obviously staged, but oddly compelling Snoop Dogg's Fatherhood. Check local listings.

More Evidence that John Mayer is Worthy of My Affections

He went to see Hanna Montana. The only way this button-flyed dreamboat can do wrong by me is to become a Scientologist.

I know what you're going to say. "Lisa: boys won't like us unless we wear tiny, ill-fitting butt-garments!" While clearly it is sometimes necessary to bust out the goods, and mom-bras are to be avoided, on any given Tuesday, you might prefer to be wearing some underwear that is, let's say, a bit on the larger side. I'm not talking granny panties here, people; I'm just talking about full coverage.

Do not despair; while it is difficult to walk the line between kittenish and septuagenarian in the drawers area, the balance can be achieved.

On a related note: tights with built-ins. Why?

On another related topic: NO underwear. Other than Britney, who does that? I mean, I know some people do. But I've got to have my business in order.

My girls, are you with me?

It's Good to be Tom Brady

What a hilarious, testosterone-injected year we're having here in the U.S. Tom Brady has managed to impregnate TWO supermodels this year, and led his team to the Super Bowl yet again. The nation is up in arms as he limps to Gisele Bundchen's apartment with some flowers in hand. Boo hoo. Meanwhile, the body count in Iraq grows to nearly 4,000 souls.

I've become fascinated with the people behind the curtain: campaign strategists. How does one get a gig like this? Seems to require at least this:

1. Some kind of business success or renown.
2. Media savvy (dur).
3. Distinguishing physical characteristics (baldness, pronounced accent).
4. A funny name.

Witness:
Dave "Mudcat" Saunders
Karl "Boom Boom" Rove
And the crawdaddy of them all, James "Ragin' Cajun" Carville.

No wonder our world is filled with pessimism, doubt and fear. Look at the headlines today, any given Wednesday. Did anything GOOD happen today?!

I don't know about you...

Is anyone reading this siding with the tiger?

Me and Dad
Sprawled on the picnic table looking at the stars one night.

It was midsummer and Dad was midstory
Trying to remember a word
Describing when a hen has laid a number of eggs
But not enough yet

She stays on the nest for 21 days until they all hatch at once
I knew the word
It was "broody"

Dad was impressed that I knew it
I was eight
We were connected
Then, as now,
by this obscurity

Fascination

That's all I can call it. I don't know what to think of Benazir Bhutto: not enough information. This timeline, while hard to use, provides some interesting stuff. So far:

1. I don't know enough about her politics, but wow! She went to Radcliffe!
2. She set her sights on becoming Prime Minister and BECAME PRIME MINISTER. Twice.

Shit, I can lose 60 pounds then, can't I?!
