I can’t believe Madge has stooped so low to date a 22 yo. I’m sorry, that’s just wrong. She’s 50. I mean, I know she IS Madonna and technically she can have any man she wants (well, maybe not), but a 22 yo??? He could be her son. If she was 70 and he was 42, that would be different. Wouldn’t this confuse her kids, esp Rocco? I love that woman but it’s not right.

Enjoying Les News today, I am…
*That dolphin rescue story is a whole lot of alright! I was on tenterhooks all week about this – it’s truly rad that it’s had a positive outcome (altho I’m slightly perplexed – yet totally happy – that it showed up on Towleroad)
*Andrew Shue, who? I always figured he was banished from network TV due to never wearing a belt on Melrose Place.
*Ditto on the “Yay Bolivia”!
*I figure Madge’s Oscar date is going to turn out to be no more serious than her other notable Oscar date:

When I saw the link to the dolphin story I was like, “My God, another dolphin rescue story!” because boys from my hometown just recently freed some dolphins from the ice in our cove…Then I realized, IT’S THE SAME STORY!!!!! Who would of thought I’d ever see little ol’ Seal Cove WB Newfoundland on Pinkisthenewblog! Thanks Trent!! You’ve made my day.

The new Tolkien book is pretty cool, even though I know it’s nothing to do with Middle Earth and is a translation of old Norse tales or something, simply because I’m tired of checking out the Tolkien section at every bookstore I go to and realising I own everything.

hey trent I know you love all things buffy-verse and buffy-alum so i was wondering if you’ve seen “Repo! The Genetic Opera” staring Anthony Stewart Head it’s on dvd know unfortch, but i know you can’t pass up a buffy alum project. Also has Paris Hilton in it
