My birthday is this coming Saturday (hint, hint, wink, wink) so in honor of the wonderful day, I thought I would share with you some wise words from 60 Minutes personality, Andy Rooney. When I think of Andy Rooney, I usually think of a grumpy old man. But, he does have some great things to say about women over 40. I’m not forty yet, but I hope to be in about ten years. I also hope to never feel the NEED to buy a whole pig. But I may... 

This post was written and copyrighted by Katie. Contact her at: neverendingrun7@yahoo.com.au. Lately I have been wondering, “What on earth is going through these girls’ minds?” When I say “these girls,” I am obviously referring to the four musketeers. The women who seem to constantly re-occur on the cover of every celebrity gossip magazine around. That’s right: Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, Britney Spears... 

I’m so happy for Larry Birkhead. I hope everything related to Dannielynn’s custody goes his way. Mighty Mo has a few words on the subject too… – We can only hope for the best. It is my hope that Larry and Virgie can come to a amiable agreement. It’s what’s best for DannieLynn. She needs her father and the mother of her mother, Anna Nicole, Virgie. I’m not sure I believe ALL of what I’ve seen... 

My friend Mighty Mo has taken it upon herself (much to my pleasure) to be my personal reporter on the Anna Nicole Smith Drama. She’s turning into quite an expert on the subject. Here are her latest reports. And be sure to read a comment she left on my last Anna Nicole post HERE. In response to: Stern Will Not Fight for Custody If Birkhead’s the Dad – Howard “giving up” custody fight… It’s all a... 

Well, I’m back. I’ve managed to hook up my hand-me-down laptop at home so I can blog once again. But not right this instant, because I’m at my office job. My plan is to do a gossip round-up tonight when I get home. I bet you can hardly wait! Here’s a taste to tie you over: -Melanie B. (Scary Spice) gave birth to a little girl. Eddie Murphy is still denying paternity. -Donald Trump “beat” Vince McMahon... 

I find it interesting that the clips of the Donald Trump and Rosie O’Donnell brawl seem to be getting more air play than the scuffles between the Democratic candidates for president. What does Hillary have to say that can surpass Isaiah Washington’s comments about Patrick Dempsey and T.R. Knight? If Mayor Giuliani can learn to drop as many F-Bombs as Eminem, then mainstream America will listen. Lindsay and Hillary. Lindsay and... 

Actress Cameron Diaz is what they call “scary pretty.” She is a living, breathing testament to the plain and simple fact that there’s a paper-thin line between gorgeous and hideous. With her high cheekbones, prominent mouth and a nose that must have once belonged to a prizefighter in another life, this woman can walk with her chin held high in both universes – the one for ugly people and the one for the beautiful... 

Below you will find a “rant” about the horrific world of health care in America. A friend of mine wrote it, and I really think her thoughts need to be shared. Not only so she can have a voice as an American citizen, but also because I think tons of you will agree with her and understand her plight. I have changed the names, but nothing else. These are her words and they must be heard… Okay, I will keep this one relatively... 

The infamous “they” say there is a sucker born every minute. What they don’t say is that every 30 seconds a scammer is born. As a writer, the majority of scams I face are writing and poetry scams that come in the form of publishing contests. Right now, the biggest poetry scam going can be found at Poetry.com—a fraudulent publishing company that turns 100% of the submissions into ‘semi-finalists’. Poetry.com’s... 

My dear friend Nora is a bit of a hero. She is full of passion and compassion, determination and drive, spirit and soul. She does things that most of us probably could, and would, never do ourselves. She is in love with a great guy and they have an awesome daughter. Which makes sense since Nora totally kicks ass. And now, you too can get to know this wonderful human. View her photos and read her blogs as she travels through war-torn Palestine. Twice... 

Here’s a cool new contest from CBS. If you had 15 seconds to tell the world whatever you wanted to, what would you say? Limited time only. Winners will be announced Super Bowl Sunday, so hurry! Registration for the 15 Seconds contest is free. Would-be hopeful are being asked to submit 15-second videos to YouTube.com through the CBS.com website – or on YouTube.com directly, as long as participants read, accept and follow the...
