Mille Bourne ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Faaabulous. If I had my way, life would be like a good hand of Mille Bourne. I'd have all the safety cards, unlimited gas, right-of-way (aka no police intervention), puncture free tires, and no crashes. Divine, no? And one long road trip...or maybe a series of many road trips. I'd decide that later. But the rest sounds exquisite, doesn't it?

Meanwhile, back at reality....

So I was listening to the Marcie Smothers thing on KSRO. Egads, I'll be nice and not comment on her specifically. But the topic today was about how wretched and evil the Extreme Makeover, Home Edition thing was in Penngrove. People were bitching because they weren't given all the credit they felt they deserved, the design team were a small part of the actual proceedings, and the project wasn't actually completed in a week. Wow. Who knew that reality tv wasn't truly real?! I, for one, am shocked. Let's all go write the Easter Bunny and tell him all about it! And imagine! That design team! Who would EVER believe that they aren't all real, live, licensed and bonded contracters! My God! I was planning to hire them for a remodel next spring! Dirty Darn!

Okay, condescension aside for the moment, give me a bloody break! First of all, I don't hear the family bitching. And if they did, how the hell dare they? Last I heard they were given a fabulous house for free. Hmm, yep, that's the story alright. And more importantly, I'm assuming that there was no force involved in these people agreeing to build the house and provide supplies (SUPPLIESSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!), time, and energy. Perhaps I'm confused, I could be wrong, but was there TECHNICALLY a gun to these assholes heads? I'm fairly certain there was, in fact, none. So that would leave us with two possibilities...first, they agreed to do the job in the hopes of free publicity. Evidently they hadn't researched how the show works, so it's their own damned fault. The second possibility is, imagine this, that they genuinely wanted to help the family. SHOCK! HORROR!!! EGADS! In this event they shouldn't be bitching now, should they? So nowwww, we can assume that either the people who are bitching are people who are stupid and didn't research the opportunity, or are people who have nothing to do with the situation whatsoever, such as our pal Marcie. Either way, they don't matter much.

My gripe (you knew there was a point somewhere) is this: What a bunch of miserable, whiny, unappreciative, spotlight stealing, irrelevent asses!!! Could Sonoma County be just a little worse represented than by these losers? Just a hair? Please?


Okay, on a perkier note... I loooove love love how radio shows use random music like the Star Wars song while they're talking. I dunno why. It's odd, I know, but it's funny as hell to me.

Alright, enough of my ramblings for the moment.
