rivercityvibe   “Puerile, smutty, schoolboy nonsense” – My Mom

It’s back on our screens. Vinny has a beard and looks like a kiddie-fiddler. Drama is in love with the French chick with a Viking fetish from Season 4. Turtle is getting laid (he has had to go to Mexico to do it….) and Eric is slowly morphing into Ari. Check out the suits on the beach:

I have always loved Entourage. Remind me to tell you sometime how similar my removal from a big agency was to Ari’s firing in Series 2 …….. My speech was better though. Apart from the fact that it was delivered under my breath in the cab on the way home.

Season 5 is on HBO 10 pm Sundays. Episode 1 available On Demand right now. I’ll probably watch it again at lunchtime.

The best bit of the recent onstage attack on the chimp-faced Gallagher brothers was the reaction of Liam. If you watch carefully you see him adopt the classic aggressive stance seen only in British towns (and certain areas of New York) at about midnight most Fridays.

If you’d like to try it at home, it involves standing legs apart chin back and chest thrust out, arms by the side, hands in fists, and literally bouncing, stiff-legged toward the object of your aggression, led by your chest. All the while, you say things like. “You ‘avin it? C’mon, ah’ll fuckin’ ‘ave ya! C’mon! You ‘avin it…..?”

Oasis: The Legend of Greystoke

Good of Liam to do this, while his brother lay in a mess of broken guitars and ribs, groaning softly……

When I learn how to embed video, I’ll put up the footage.

Don’t hold your breath.

(Here it is. it turns out that “blogging” is laughably simple…….)

For those of us whose role in life is to mock, the celeb wars of recent years have been like manna from heaven. You may recall that prior to Paris Hilton’s arrest (for whatever it was) and her subsequent pathetic performance whilst incarcerated (If I was her publicist I would have arranged a pre-prison conduct-after-capture course with the SEALS), all the attention was on Paris Hilton vs. Lindsay Lohan. Who is the most popular, who is most worthy of our admiration?

It was around this time that some losers in Jacksonville got rather carried away. Who can forget the ill-fated Club Paris at the Landing.

Embarrassing ain’t the word.

Anyway, I have got to say, I have always been squarely for Lindsay. For a start, she is an actress, has been to drama school, taken lessons. For the movies she has made she has been paid millions of dollars. Earnings.

Paris, on the other hand, has a rich dad.

But there are other key reasons, why I much prefer Lyndsay to Paris:

And don’t say this post is sexist. Because its not.

Is it possible that we have the opportunity to elect the perfect woman to within a heartbeat of leader of the free world?

"I presume this is loaded with one-in-three tracer?"

She can handle a weapon, for sure. (This is the line you were waiting for. Joe knows. Joe is happy to oblige….)

Let us give thanks to those intrepid folks who brought us live coverage of Tropical Storm Fay and are, even now, steeling their nerves to brave the elements again for  Hurricane Hanna (LIVE!). Reporting the weather during hurricane season is the macho alternative to war reporting, for hacks who cannot be away from home for too long (“I’d love to report from Lashkar Gar, but who’d feed my pets…?”)

This piece in the Post has it about right. I love anything with Geraldo Rivera in it. He hasn’t yet captured Bin Laden, but by God, he will make up for it with a rainy day in Florida.

By the way, six ( or so) boats sank in the NAS Jax Marina, during Fay. Ouch.

menial work......

These Hollywood stars love their politics…….
