Star light, star not so bright

Drew Lachey Wins 'Dancing With the Stars'

Note to the universe: Drew Lachey is not a star. He's the brother of someone who's not quite a star either, but who had the good fortune to marry someone who became a quasi-star (a quasar?). Since when did being the brother of someone who's not quite a star imbue you with star status?

I used to commute on the LIRR with someone who was featured in a movie with Kevin Bacon. That's a mere one degree of Baconhood. That alone makes me more of a star that Drew Lachey.

Is that the same railroad that Colin Ferguson used to ride?!? You really are a star!!

I almost always rode the train on which Colin Ferguson killed those people. I worked late that night and missed the train, taking the next one. When I walked in the door, I got a frantic phone call from my parents and that's how I found out about it. (That said, I changed at Jamaica, and he didn't shoot until after that stop.)

Actually Jim, you have another connection to Kevin Bacon. Kevin Bacon Attended the PA Governor's School for the Arts at Bucknell. You attended Bucknell. you probably trod in the same cafeteria as he. Heck, You may have sat in the same seat. I also attended PA Governor's School for the Arts, so that's my nth degree to K.Bacon. yay for that.

Oo.. i forgot about THAT colin Ferguson. wait... CRAIG Ferguson. boy. I was confused.

Thank god. I thought I was the only one. I was afraid to watch his late show anymore.

And Drew may not be a real star, but he's kinda cute for a washed-up boy bander. But Marky Mark will always have my vote, if only for the third nipple.

I once saw Stephen King buying some food. Does that make me more of a writer than James Frey?

I know, I know, making fun of James Frey is so last month.

Sam said...

No, I think you can go on making fun of Frey for a while yet. His humiliation wasn't complete.
Oh, I just glanced outside - It's snowing! Yay!
