Breakfast at Tiffany's – Because I Do Not Know

No Wire Hangers, Ever!

Jake is feeling a little poorly tonight, so filling in is a new-discovered blog: Now A Warning, which owner PJS describes as "an occasionally deleted blog about nothing of consequence." So read it while you can.

Today, PJS reviews the "Mommie Dearest" special edition DVD. He also presents a list: All I Really Need to Know I Learned in "Mommie Dearest," including:

When you polish the floor, you have to MOVE the TREE.

It's better to go to school bald than looking like a tramp.

This actually isn't, technically, my first time at the rodeo.

If you need anything, ask Carol Ann.

Midnight rosebush-chopping can be cathartic.

Funny stuff. PJS, a frequent commentor over at Duane's, asks for other life lessons one can take from the movie. Here's mine:

"I always know where to find the boys and the booze."

seriously, when we were dating long distance, sometimes i had to ask him to hang up and instant message me what he was trying to say. To this day, my end of many of our conversations goes like this:

"what?"

"wait, WHAT?"

"I do not understand what you're saying."

Well cat my dog, of course you're right precious. God talks just like us...
You know we take a special class at the Junior League so we can learn how to drop our R's properly and speak in a true southern fashion..

If you think Mommie Dearest is a trip,you should try(keyword here is TRY)to read Christina Crawford's novel Black Widow. I don't even know if it's in print anymore but if John Waters were to make a film version of it,that sucker would rival MD for the sheer campiness(and yes,there's an axe scene!).
