Do you ever see a picture and mentally add your own dialogue to it? Because the dialgue in my head when I look at this picture is freaking hilarious!

Refund
Chad Michael Murray's child bride needs to either call her plastic surgeon and get his money back on her implants or call the better business bureau or something because it is shoddy workmanship that CREASES when you lean!

Fashion Question
Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen are currently out promoting their clothing line Elizabeth & James. Would you buy clothes from people who dress like this?
I might buy shoes from them, but definitely not clothes. Or hair care products. And in case they're considering further diversification, any cosmetic ventures should maybe not include MK's name. Unless the folks anxious to look like a goth Joker are your target audience, in which case I think Mary Kate is sitting on a gold mine.
I know...
I didn't want to hear you were going to be in an episode of Supernatural either. I covered my ears and "lalalah-d" for a while too.

Speaking Of Side Boob
Looks like Sophia Bush is doing her part to ensure there's no ratings slip for the upcoming season of One Tree Hill.
And Austin Nichols is working a similar angle for the (mostly) female viewership. Thank you, Austin!
That's One Tall Woman!
How the frak tall is Maria Sharapova? Blake Lively is 5'10" in her bare feet and she's wearing at least 3" worth of shoe here but Maria is towering over her like Blake was standing in a ditch!
In other news, way to show off the side boob there Blake!
PJ Day?
I do not understand why Sophia Bush went out on the streets of New York to get ice cream and hail a cab in something that looks like pajamas.
This is making me want to go back to bed except I'm afraid that I'll see it again when I close my eyes and it's a sartorial nightmare.
Happy Birthday
Happy 29th to Chris Pine. You know, Star Trek really made him big news but I'd just like to mention that he was equally dreamy in Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement, Just My Luck, and Smokin' Aces where he played 1/3 of a psychotic, murderous team of brothers who were greasy, tatted-up and in desperate need of a dentist. Even under those circumstances, he was still hot.
You know who else is 29 today? Macaulay Culkin. Is anyone else a little freaked out by that?

Weekend In Reviews
Even though I mostly spent my 4 day weekend painting at Jay and Mike's new house, I did manage to watch a few movies.
Post Grad - Alexis Bledel is one of those straight-A, everything comes easily for her kind of girls right up until she graduates from college - she doesn't get the dream job, or any job; she has to move back in with her crazy parents; she is constantly humiliated by or in front of her college rival.
Do you feel sorry for her yet? Well stop because she also has the world's most awesome best friend who takes the form of Zach Gilford. Zach is smart, funny, kind, attractive, and while deeply in love with her, is perfectly content to be just friends. She also has a hot Brazilian neighbor who totally wants her. Poor Alexis.
Fortunately Alexis is a likable actress because otherwise, you'd kind of want to smack her throughout the movie. There's just a lot of pouting and self pitying.
It wasn't a bad movie, to be honest, I couldn't care enough about it to dislike it. It was just a forgettable movie. If you like one of the actors in it, you might want to go out of your way to watch it, but more likely, you'll be content to wait for this to fall in your lap some day when you can contentedly wile away 90 minutes and then go about your business not remembering a thing about it except that Alexis's pants were entirely too long for her.
Perfect Getaway - The premise here is that there is a murderous couple on the loose in Hawaii. They've killed a honeymooning couple on Oahu and now the authorities believe they've moved to Kauai. Meanwhile, three separate couples - Steve Zahn and Milla Jovovich, Timothy Olyphant and Kiele Sanchez, and Chris Hemsworth and Marley Shelton - are all hanging on the remote hiking trails and beaches of Kauai and their paths continue to cross.
In the end, one of those three couples are the murderers, one couple is framed for the killings, and one couple is nearly killed but ultimately takes the crazies down.
Most of the elements are there for a decent thriller but somehow the movie manages to suck anyway. The "twist" is ok but the flashback explanation of the twist is stupid and poorly incorporated. The movie tries so hard to trick you that it actually goes against it's own plot in a couple of places which cheapens the twist completely.
What I will say is that the casting was fantastic. There is some VERY good eye candy happening in this picture. Both Chris Hemsworth and Tim Olyphant are as dreamy as can be, though I actually thought Hemsworth should have had more screen time.
For the visual appeal alone, I'd say this is worth watching on cable. If you're in the market for a good thriller, skip this altogether.
17 Again - Holy crap was this movie good! I'm as shocked as anyone to find out that I actually loved this movie because I really didn't expect to. Zac Efron people! How could it really be good when it rests on the shoulders of the kid from High School Musical? But it was, I swear.
Ok so here's the story - Matthew Perry is that guy who blames everything that he wants but doesn't have in his life on the fact that he got married to his high school sweetheart and had kids right after high school instead of going to college. He dwells on what he considers the short-comings of his life instead of focusing on what is good in his life, like his wife and his kids. So naturally his wife kicks his ungrateful ass out and files for divorce and his kids really want nothing to do with him. Because people know when you blame them for what you perceive to be a crappy life and they do not appreciate it.
That's when he runs into a strange old man who works some magical mojo and turns him back into the 17-year-old version of himself, which is Zac Efron. Zach attends high school and takes this opportunity to get to know his kids and help them the way he should have helped them when he was their dad as opposed to their classmate. He also manages to be incredibly inappropriately flirty with their mom which is vaguely disturbing because he is only 17 but at the same time he is her husband and, as she acknowledges, he looks just like her husband did when they met and fell in love.
The movie is funny and charming and sweet and ridiculous and silly in the best way. I rented this but I think I will go out and buy the DVD very soon because it was a ton of fun and I can't wait to watch it again.

Happy Birthday
The wonderful John Noble is celebrating his 61st bithday today. Two days in a row I get to give crazy ol' Walter Bishop some love!
Joan Allen is 53 today. She is a great actress, a hell of a serious, ass-kicking authority figure (Bourne movies, Death Race) and back in 2001 she had a hair style that I still covet. Isn't she gorgeous?
James Marsters turns 47 today. As Spike on Buffy The Vampire Slayer Marsters was a terrific homicidal maniac and he certainly has the youthful face to play a man who never ages. Plus his faux British accent was spot-on. Bloody hell! Oh yeah, he also has the good sense to wear pink.
Finally, the delightful Amy Adams is 35 today. There isn't much more to say about her other than she's lovely and incredibly talented. I've never seen a single movie of hers that I didn't really enjoy.
Happy happy to one and all.

Nap Time
My boss is on vacation for two weeks and in case you couldn't tell from the significant increase in posts, I am BORED at work. With so little to do my days are excruciatingly long and the boredom has made me tired. So I'm napping (with my eyes open of course, I don't want to get fired!) for my remaining couple of hours.
See you all tomorrow.
See you all tomorrow.
Anticipation Is Making Me Crazy
Another show I'm crazy with excitement for (26 days!) is One Tree Hill. The production staff occasionally Tweets pics from the set and this one has had me on the edge of my seat for a couple of weeks.
As long as we're peeping pics of the OTH cast, I've got a brief diversion to discuss. It's no secret I was hopeful that the relationship between cute-as-a-button Sophia Bush and her dreamy costar James Lafferty would end in a happily ever after. But alas that's not to be.
The scuttlebutt now is that she's back together with former boyfriend and most recent costar Austin Nichols.
I really do wish Sophia a passel of happiness but I gotta say, girlfriend has become a serious serial costar dater. She might want to start thinking about shitting a bit further from where she eats.
I'm running out of "clever" post titles for my pink series.
.
.
Robert Downey Jr. knows how good he looks in pink. And porn-staches! .
.
.
.
Jensen Ackles might have gone a little too Miami Vice with this look but I'm not holding it against him because he's so nice to look at..
.
.
.
Don Cheadle is not at all shy about his pink and I applaud him.
.
.
.
.
Bryan Greenberg (a.k.a. JAKE!) is an absolute VISION in pink!.
.
.
.
Just yesterday Ashton Kutcher tried pushing the envelope to see if there was such a thing as too much pink. You be the judge but I'll say this - as long as he doesn't put that hat on, I think he's still comfortably on the good side of the pink line.

Three Weeks From Tomorrow!
The Brothers Winchester will return to my television on September 10th to pick up their fight against evil where they left off last May.
Looks to me like Sam is still battling his inner demons (that's a metaphor of course, to my knowledge he hasn't been possessed again since getting that possession blocking tattoo) and what I can only assume from her outfit is an outer demon as well.
And I believe she may have gotten her brainwashy hooks into my dear, sweet Bobby because what else could be the explanation for my favorite non-ironic trucker-hat-wearing demon hunter to hold a knife to Dean's remarkably pretty face?
Shit is goin' DOWN this season, bitches! Woo!
Ahem. Sorry, I've composed myself now.

Three Reasons
It would be easy to assume from my recent posts that the only show I'm looking forward to the return of is Gossip Girl, but that's not at all true. That's just the one you can never escape photos of. But today I found several non-GG pictures that have sparked my excitement for the fall season start.
Twenty-nine days until Fringe comes back! Here are a few things to look forward to:
1) Is the cow having a birthday? It certainly appears that way and I love that Astrid and Walter would celebrate appropriately for their constant companion.
2) The continued adventures of Walter's inappropriate relationship with food! Here he is exploring a chest cavity while enjoying a Twizzler. God I love Walter.
3) Two words: Joshua. Jackson. 'Nuff said.

Happy Birthday
Kyra Sedgwick, gorgeous wife of Kevin Bacon and incredibly talented star of The Closer (which had a particularly terrific episode on Monday), is 44 today.
Matthew Perry turns 40 today. Obviously he'll forever be rememberd for Chandler Bing but you know what else I will always love him for? Fools Rush In and that episode of Growing Pains where he played Carol's boyfriend who drove drunk, got in a car accident and then died. I swear, that's less morbid than it sounds, it was a very touching episode. Perry gets extra points today for wearing pink.
Peter Gallagher celebrates 54 years of eyebrowrrific awesomeness today. I can't decide whether my fondest memories of him are as Sandy Cohen on The O.C. or as the Director of the American Ballet Company, Jonathan, in Center Stage. I'm calling it a tie.
Happy Birthday to all.

Vroom Vroom...
Don'tcha just love cute boys in cars?
Channing Tatum
George Clooney 
Kyle Chandler 
Zach Gilford
Taylor Kitsch Almost forgot...
The other thing I learned is that whatever size dress they have Blake Lively wearing for the shindig in the garden? It ain't the RIGHT size for her. Her poor breasts are being squished into a shape not at all resembling her fairly glorious bosom.
Things I've Learned Today
I have learned many, many things from Gossip Girl. Like, sometimes the most dastardly, conniving people are the funnest; washed-up '90s rock stars make inept parents; really pretty girls with a lot of money but not enough sense will date a disturbing number of self-righteous douche bags; and too much eye liner and a bad haircut can turn a cute girl fug quicker than you can say "Little J."
Those are just a few examples because every single episode is a complete education, really.
I can even learn stuff just seeing pictures from the set. Here's what I've learned today:
Kelly Rutherford's baby is cute.
Something fancy is going on in the out of doors this season...people are dressed up at the Botanical Gardens and Chuck is wearing a boutanier. Wedding perhaps?
The wardrobe department takes one step forward and 237 steps back. This saggy monstrosity looks very much like she is wearing a plus-size woman's blouse as a dress. Oh God, I hope it's not a wedding, can you imagine if someone showed up to your wedding looking like this? You'd want to call the whole thing off!
