If you're going to use "nature" to back you up, I'll ask you to recall the two male penguins at the Central Park zoo who adopted an abandoned egg and raised the resulting chick as their own. That was natural, too. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2004/02/07/MNG3N4RAV41.DTL

The woman loves wigs, what can you do?

Seriously, what's in Prince's basement? A purple foosball table with velvet handles?

I know! And People should know, right? The truth will come out soon enough.

That's just it, being a party girl is fine! Being a junkie (if that's what she is? who the hell knows) will destroy everything. She is so gifted.

These are brilliant, Angela.

I know, I was thinking how lucky she is to have been born when and where she was, that her parents have the means and heart to support her and not turn her into some sideshow attraction.

Alyce, you're obviously one of those people who smokes crack in her sleep. Me, apparently I'm one of those people who is continually astonished that people can post comments from a wattle-and-daub hut in the Dark Ages.

Okay, how about this: wait until you're actually offered the job to disclose your pregnancy and see how they react. That will be a good time to judge how family friendly the new work environment really is.

Employers are required to absorb some of those costs, absolutely, but having been fired soon after ending my own maternity leave I'm afraid that employers will ultimately do what's best for them and I'd be worried that something equally as catastrophic would happen to H in a new, unknown company.

I thought we should have a post for the menfolk.

Ah, Team Owen speaks!

Seriously, Amy. And thanks, Liana! Google image search can be used for good as well as evil, always remember that.

I think I would like the hat more if her hair were up. Hats in general seem so retro that I want a chignon underneath, plus it would really help me to appreciate that hat as the crowning achievement of physics that it really is.

OMG Susie Bright left a comment? EEEEE!

You're welcome! And I like the fact that those legs are kind of ambiguous -- they first read as manly for me, but then I look again and they're mighty smooth and is that nail polish on those toes? Awesome.

This appears to be the greatest movie ever made.

Larceny, damn it.

Larcey McTakestuff! HA! Excellent.

Gah! Fixed it. Thank you!

I liked it a lot, my six-year-old liked it a lot too, even though some of the violence was borderline cover-his-eyes. I love that Jon "Elf" Favreau directed it with both humor and bombs going off. It goes to show that you can take a somewhat flimsy cartoon premise, load it up with real talent (Gwyneth's uber-whiteness works here, and Terence's eyes rival Downey's for drownability) and make a movie that's totally worth the price of popcorn.

I love that picture of her. I really wish she'd get her shit together.

AMAZING. Wow, that's some serious entitlement right there. I have a friend whose very expensive jacket was stolen right off the back of his seat at a fancy bar, and I think that whoever would just take someone else's nice property assumes that if the owner is rich enough to buy it s/he is rich enough to replace it without a second thought. Rich people deserve to/can afford to lose their shit, right? Did Lindsay think she deserved it more somehow? Because she's famous? The mind boggles, doesn't it, Winona?

Yup, that's the Edge. I can't seem to find anything confirming Moakler's pregnancy, but she's got a belly and she's dressed for comfort so I just went and assumed. This is how rumors start, I know.

Madonna's always been lot more liberal about sex than most people, so this comment is consistent with that. Normally I think she's pretty arrogant, but I agree with her here, Miley wasn't showing any more skin than the average teenager at the community swimming pool here. It's harder for parents to deal with this stuff than kids, that's for sure. I'm sure Lourdes knows all about STDs and birth control already.
