So...once again I ( and the rest of us, by the way) did not get a ticket to be on Oprah's Favorite Things That She Is Giving Away or whatever she calls it show...actually I don't even watch it...I watched it once a long, long time ago...maybe her very first one...and on that show she had a Norma Kamali jumpsuit that she said was the most comfortable, gorgeous, easy to wear outfit for at home OR going out she ever owned and we at home MUST simply go out and buy it...for...and I will never forget this...$765.00...really, Oprah...over 700 DOLLARS...and then she said, "buy two in different colors, THAT's how much I love them" oh yes, she said that...
Who does she think is watching that show? Lisa Vanderpump (my new favorite name) and the other Housewives of Beverly Hills...or does she know that her audience is just women getting home from work tired and cranky in their Kohl's outfits and Payless shoes getting an hour to sit down before picking the kids up from CCD, before putting the chicken strips and fries in the oven, before throwing in a load of wash, before doing the homework...and CERTAINLY before getting into their Norma Kamali jumpsuit to look hot for their husband when he gets home!
So I didn't see it...but my God am I hearing about it...people at work, on TV, on the internet, everyone is talking about it...and I guess I just have to talk about it too...whenever I think about it I can only envision the Saturday Night Live where they satirized it and someone had her baby right there while someone's else's head blew off...FREE STUFF...and really FABULOUS FREE STUFF...but only if you are there...because if you are not there...then...
You get up from the couch and think about how much fun that would have been...
really, Oprah...a FREAKIN' cruise...

Dear Lisa -- may I call you Lisa??? -- I agree fully that it is a great name. Is she for real or is this just a pseudonym? (I don't think that's the right word, but I am sick currently). Watched the clip, and funny thing is is that it reminded me of SNL (as opposed to the other way around). Very funny. It also reminded me of the old Rosie O'Donnell Show, but I guess with one difference: RO'D usually gave her stuff away to families and kids who had nothing already. But let's just say that if I happened to be in the audience - which I wasn't - I wouldn't have turned down the cruise or the five FREE years of Netflix or the diamond watch (could always sell it on ebay -- and since it was FREE any $$$ I got would have been extra and probably would have gotten MORE because it came from Oprah. Anywho, the title had me hoping for a throwout to the Sound of Music...Sing a Long coming on December 22 at BM Film Institute. I hear you are going! Something about a bet you lost. Finally, I am glad you BLOG is back; missed you over the last 10 months! Got tired of looking at that pic of Drew Brees (???) holding his kid.
