   In regards to those reality TV shows… dull is right. But by far the worst- eight 30 minute episodes featuring the daily lives of Macy’s employees. Are you kidding me? What exactly will we be watching? Clothing inventory? People heating up their frozen meals in the break room? A candid view of the dressing room? SNORE!

   I second that. It sounds VERY dull.. However I am looking forward to Flavor of Love 2. It’s like Jerry Springer meets The Bachelor in Compton. Macy’s employees?? Wth.

   This is just the cherry on the Ebert and Roeper are Sell Outs sundae.

   Apparently VH1 will be playing the first day of MTV on the air on that historic day.

   THANK YOU, Mel Gibson, for giving a good name to Catholics everywhere! You really should be canonized.

   FYI, everyone: Mel G. is orthodox Catholic, and there are VERY few of those left anymore. I will admit that the faith has its problems, BUT we are NOT all anti-Semitic and women-hating crazies.

   Mel Gibson is indeed crazy. All the reporting that I’ve read has included words such as “torrent”, “tirade”, “barrage”. These words are used to describe the anti-semitic portion of his ranting. However it seems that the lengthy soliloquy included only the following anti-semitic vitriol:

   “Fucking Jews… The Jews are responsible for all the wars in the world.” Gibson then asked the deputy, “Are you a Jew?”

   While abhorrent, that is hardly a tirade. Not to mention the fact that he’s WRONG! Everybody knows that Phil Collins is responsible for all the wars in the world.

   I don’t know about the Jews, but all Catholics are anti-Semetic women-hating crazies.

   Am I the only one who’s been thinking, ever since “The Passion of the Christ” was released, that Mel’s been going off the deep end little by little? It just seems like the things he’s been saying the last couple of years are getting more and more outlandish and out of control.

   Mel is a frickin nutcase!
   Too much money, too many “nut” genes in his family. And rehab won’t help with bigotry, Mel!
   He will not walk away from this unscathed. I have a feeling his career is OVER. Too bad, cause I looked at my dvd’s last night and I have probably 5 with Mel in them. Still like them, but won’t go see new Mel movies or buy anymore dvd’s.
   Shame, Shame, Shame.

    One more thing: Mel’s mug shot was surprisingly good! Hot Bigot alert.
    Shame.
