* Publicists. They may just be extinct soon. First, Paris blames hers for all of her misdeeds and now Britney Spears forgoes the pros and tries to appeal to the public in her own prose. Yee-ikes. Sure, why bother releasing a well-written, grammatically correct statement when you can just blather aimlessly on your website? Of course, pasting a half-naked picture of yourself next to your open letter will make up for some of the incoherency. At least for your male fans.
* Original movies. Nearly every movie in theaters right now a sequel. Or I guess I should say a "threequel." Spiderman 3, Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, Shrek the III, Oceans Thirteen...what's next? Don't say Grease 3. Do NOT say Grease 3.
* Charles Nelson Reilly. No joke here. He passed away on Friday. He was one _______ cat.
(I filled in the blank with "cool." Who matched?)

CNR was one out there cat. Hey, it works!
CNR was hilarious on Match Game. I also remember him from The Love Boat...
You are always so witty, I love reading what you've got to say even if it's a subject I couldn't care less about!
I guess publicists are partly responsibility maintaining the star-maker machinery of Hollywood. Of course, it's easy to shift blame on others when you screw up. It's the American way, after all (at least if you want to be president someday).
Grease 3? I get it. Set in the 1970s, Frenchy puts on a biographical play that winds up being a multi-million dollar juggernaut starring John Travolta and Olivia-Newton John.
I can see it now.
Sounds like a good idea for a comedy post. Sequels that should never be made.
See, "Legs," it's different because I spelled out the number.

The Britney thing is hilarious. All you have to do is read it with a drawl and throw a few "y'all"s in there, with some gum smacking, and she's like a real-life Beverly Hillbilly! I particularly liked the part about her starting to use her head. It's about time! Maybe she can talk to LiLo about giving that a try.
I really thought CNR could have done so much more if people used him right. At least, Match Game gave him a good forum.
