{in small voice} i actually like dancing with the stars.

Did anyone see Rangel's comments on Bush's speech over at the Huffington Post? (And, tink: it's much more embarrassing to read HP than it is to watch "Dancing with the Stars.") It's worth looking at, just because it's so amazingly incoherent and poorly written. Honest to god, I think my high school wood shop teacher was smarter than this guy.

I keep meaning to look up who these "stars" are. I kinda recognize the guy with the white hair, though I don't know his name, but the others are interchangable lookers. One of them is probably an ex-child star. Well, I recognized Evander, but that's it.

Anyway, I saw it last night, and it seemed to be pretty good TV.

Joey was robbed.

"It's just awesome to see people who we pretend are celebrities, get this, ballroom dancing on television."

If you like Dancing with the Stars, just wait until you see my coup followup: Putt-putt With the Stars.

Top-drawer celebrities like Jimmy "J-J" Walker, Roland Orzabal, and Adrian Barbeau team up with some national putt-putt champs to learn all the tricks of getting that little ball through that fast-moving windmill. Comedic hijinks help relieve some of the intense pressure when a single stroke can make all the difference between scoring 36 and 37 on any given round.

We're also negotiating with Adrian for some gratuitious lounging around in beach shorts on her part. She's still as hot looking as she was in her Swamp Thing heyday--especially when she's leaning over a putter with a furrowed look of intense concentration trying to time her swing past the plastic jumping cowboy's legs.

Kelly Monaco is smokin' hot. Cute-hot even. She's reason enough alone to watch. Though she's nowhere near hot enough to get me to watch General Hospital.

The judges are like three Simon Cowells though. It adds nothing to the show and it probably distorts the public vote who want to make up for the crap they say.

What were we talking about again?

Man, now I have to google up some pics of Kelly Monaco. She was a Playmate of some rank a few years back, I think. Will have to see if her looks held up.

Two observations.

First off, while the Army recruiting numbers are great news, it has to be remembered that the summer months are typically very good for recruiting. After all, there are plenty of more high school & college graduates available to join in June than in February.

Second, Kelly Monaco is incredibly hot, yes. One of the finest Playmates ever. Also, she gets my kudos for appearing in Playboy multiple times over the years-- she must enjoy getting naked. I know I sure enjoy her getting naked.

Cheers,

I'd dance with Adrienne Barbeau. Would't have to ask me twice. I've always had the hots for Adrienne.

I mean, what's not to like?
