The last 10 seconds of on-board footage of this KDFW helicopter crash are a bit intense. What’s going on with news helicopters these days?
This married multi-millionaire is looking for a mistress.
I need some real excitement in my life, and I’m not getting that at home. I’m looking for a slender, fit, woman in her 20s that is looking for excitement as well, but understands that I am not looking to leave my marriage.
Well, he is loyal? I mean, he’s not going to leave his wife, just deceive her, cheat her and stuff.
I think we’ll have to sit on the floor with our wine. And, I get to be the sister! You can be the brother or something.
If you buy that dollhouse, Merritt, I’ll be there with a bottle of wine and my camera.
When Paige posted the photo of the stylin’ dollhouse I just knew that my daughters would flip out. But, to my surprise after reading Virginia’s e-mail about the house to them, one of the girls said “it isn’t pink enough.” However, I just learned that it wasn’t the lack of pink, it was the vampire part of Virgina’s description:
It comes with dolls for mom, dad, brother, sister, and (my addition) Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Virginia, is it still on the market? Have we lost our one chance to have the only Buffy dollhouse in the Park Cities?
Paige, we may be back on for our playdate. Any other chicks want to drink wine and play with the dollhouse after the kids are in bed?
CNN has this report about Nan Talese, publisher and editor of James Frey’s A Million Little Pieces. Apparently she was in Dallas this past weekend for a non-fiction writers’ conference and spoke to the DMN.
“She accused Winfrey of ‘fiercely bad manners’ and said she would have done nothing differently in how she handled Frey’s manuscript.
“I’m afraid I’m unapologetic of the whole thing. And the only person who should be apologetic is Oprah Winfrey,” Talese said.
Can this woman be my hero? All I’m sayin’ is that if Oprah proselytizes to one more person one more time about one more thing…well, to go on would mean I had fiercely bad manners.
All this talk has me thinking of my favorite teacher, whom I saw recently at the AAC. It’s a good thing I wasn’t ever in his classroom, let me tell you that. Lordy! Instead, my my male teachers were (more…)
In the Lakewood edition, Lakewood Stallions 2nd grade basketball coach Blake Chandler says when it comes to boxers or briefs, he prefers commando. Now you know.
We’ve had some wildly inappropriate suggestions from Overheardians about follow up “hot” issues:
Hot librarians
Hot nuns
Hot altar boys
Hot lunch ladies
Hot Brownie moms
OK, gross.
Camp Longhorn pick-up day was this weekend. When was the last time you were so carefree and surrounded only by people having the time of their lives? I wanted to explain it to my daughter, you know to remember that feeling of no responsibilty or stress, but I knew she wouldn’t get it so I took a picture instead: (more…)
The upside of this Advocate article is that I’ve learned a little more about 87-year old Rita Greenfield in the last year. The Lake Highlands High School receptionist is the sweet old lady who snagged two doctored muffins from the teacher’s lounge in May and ended up getting really, really stoned.
“You never would think your 86-year-old mother would be eating marijuana muffins. It never crosses your mind,” said Ms. Greenfield’s daughter, Carla Fulton.
Now Ms. Greenfield shows up again in the Advocate’s hot teachers issue. From Ryan Logan, LHHS junior varsity boy’s soccer coach:
Advocate: “Have you ever received catcalls? Longing stares?”
Ryan: “Not that I know of. That would be quite odd. Just hugs from Rita [Greenfield].”
Rita!!! You crazy little minx! What are you doing this weekend? Let’s party!
It seems like most teachers would try to avoid this kind of publicity — I can’t believe they would sign on for such a sexy piece. It makes me think of teachers in an inappropriate way, and when I think of teachers and sex, I usually think of these freaks.
Are you KIDDING? Parents, teachers, and administrators can no longer be surprised by cases like this, and this, and this.
So I’m walking out the door this morning and see there’s a Lake Highlands Advocate on my front porch, I happen to glance at the cover and stop in my tracks. “Role Models: Meet some of Lake Highlands’ HOTTEST coaches.” (For those in Lakewood, North Dallas and Preston Hollow, you get your own round up of hot teachers.)
In light of the recent accusations from a young student at Ursuline, I’m thinking this kind of story opens the floodgates for teachers to receive unwanted amorous attention (and legal troubles) from their pupils. Why do I think that? Well in the jump we’ve got a nice centerfold spread of Junior High Coach Ali Xinos where she answers to the oh-so-appropriate questions that all the teachers tackled like, “Have you always known you were a hottie…?” “How do you keep that bod in shape?” “Turn ons” “Turn offs” and “BIKINIS OR THONGS?” (Ali says she wears both.) The men are asked boxers or briefs….LH coach Brandon White answers that one by saying, “Boxers. I need some room to let them breathe a little.”
Was this really a good idea, you guys? Really?
