Yeah Right

What are you doing this weekend?

Me, I'm reading People!!   Saved By the Bell Reunion, y'all! 

How cool is this?   Especially on the heels of the excellent Tiffany Amber Thiessen video posted by lsangeles earlier today.

TY to YR'er Stephanie for alerting me to the big news.  She figures this was a plan B cover story that only made the cut b/c there was no breaking news among Jon and Kate this week.  But whatever -- I'll take it!

I'm a little verklempt.  Talk amongst yourselves.  I'll give you a topic: Ralph Fiennes is spelled neither rafe nor fines. Discuss.

In Defense of Modern Country Music

In my thumbs-up review of the Brad Paisley show this past weekend, I promised to stir some controversy here by posting a defense of modern country music.  I know that, in many circles, this is a serious faux pas.  Our leading light here at the YR blog, Allison, says in her bio that she "will listen to any musical genre that is not country."  Well, I'm coming out of the country closet (albeit with some caveats at the end of this post)....

Today's Sign of the Apocalypse

Someone is letting Heidi from the Hills perform her music publicly.  Yikes.
