Over-rated

-
My year ending blasts to keep all of you (?) in astonishment at why I would possibly write about these highly over-rated people for this past year...only, in my opinion...
#10 Angelina Jolie...not what she seems, not a fan of any of her movies, and she stole BP from Jennifer...and wherever she goes, she gets followed...not me
#9 Justin Timberlake...why oh why is this guy famous? can't sing, can't act, not particularly good looking...mystifies me...what am I missing here?
#8 Taylor Swift...bear with me on this...she is a nice talent and has a good voice and all...but, she is not the best and is not worthy of all the hype that garnered her all those trophies this year...better than Carrie or Faith? I don't think so...
#7 Cougar Town...I know, not a person but...all involved...the writing for this sitcom is horrible and really should be shared with equally bad writing of the "the old adventures of Christine"...blah, blah, blah...
#6 Tracy McGrady...for you NBA buffs...his attitude is that he can do what he used to do...not...over the hill and get over it...Rick needs fresh legs, not his...
#5 Conan O'Brien...just a horrible replacement for Jay Leno...not funny and not a good questioner...OMG, just leaves the door wide open for Letterman to dominate...awful...
#4 BCS...the entire group...runaway yearly disappointment for college football fans...I've gone over and over this...so frustrating...
#3 Sarah Palin...my goodness, the conservative have to find a better rep than her...are you serious?...but she is my political fall guy this time around, and there are a bunch of candidates out there...
#2 Joe Lieberman...I lied, he's worse...for the waffling on the health care bill...and for his changing sides...is he getting the $600,000 for each side of the bill that the lobbyists are dishing out?
#1 Tom Cruise...not a believer in anything he does...do not believe him...oh by the way, this could be any year...

Ok kids, this is my list...who'd I leave out?
Next up, the under-rated...

Very good Peter. I would add in general, the Movie industry and evening television. When is the last time we had really good memorable movies? Television is now performance shows that could be settled in two hours but are drawn out to 10 wks. The science of solving crimes has run its course. Most sit-coms are the same theme with different characters.
Modern family is the only TV show I look forward to

The trump criminal trial is now set to go on Monday ...try as he may, he couldn't get it delayed...how many tries?...4?...it's a go, Bozo.. .and now, it is Perry Mason time ...does he have Perry?...I see he is without the lady attorney he had in his last court case ... a thought for us all...seems like whenever we are watching the 'famous people' in court, the prosecution has a tougher job ahead of them ...we shall see...and the item of 'odor' has emerged again...what the heck?... Bizarre outside the courthouse...a guy set himself on fire...he died ...the last time I can recall something like this... was in South Vietnam, with the Buddhist Monks doing the same, in the Vietnam War...egads ....we just don't value life enough... Congress...it's another odd session...with House Speaker Johnson (Mr Peepers) going against MAGA, and trying to get $ for Ukraine and Israel ...yes, MTG is not only fighting that, but attempting to get him fired from his job...why o...

Good morning all, from the great state of Oregon...this whole trip is about FRIENDS!...meeting up with peops we have been with over our years in the PNW...and for Boss's reunion....the opening act was a combo party of the two at this pad, a bar, called Johnny's...simply said, it was fun... The stories were there, the faces remained the same...and it tickled moi, that so many FRIENDS showed up...unfortunately, I did not get enough time to talk to all, please forgive me...when you go back some 60 years, my memory does fade a tad...well, and so does their's...ha ha...believe me, it was worth the trip... Boss was one of the belles of the ball...yes, she still looks great...you know that....well, the rest of her class did not know that, until last eve...she was flitting (flirting) about so...which made me smile...and that is only the beginning of it...the REAL reunion is tonight...one of my FRIENDS reminded me that is the gals reunion...which I think is most reunions...it is for...

When the thesaurus ran it's new version...it highlighted the word 'oration'...and there it was ... President Barack Obama...and then there is more..... see...Michelle Obama ...these two have the fundamental prowess of giving speeches...at the right time...at the right place... No better example of this, than last night at the DNC...each were marvelous...of course ...it's what people, special people, like these two...do...carry a message across the Nation...that we all can not only understand, but agree with... For seemingly years, the Horse has said...that if Michelle O wanted to be in the White House, AGAIN...this time as the President, and not the wife...she could ...however, for right now...she is supporting the right choice...for this time of the history of our country.... Tonight, we hear another exceptional orator...President Bill Clinton ...it's almost like taking a class in college...Speech 101...BTW, I was turrible at it...just in case you were wondering......
