T&A Lady has an interesting exchange about Ann Landers, which prompted me to dig out a post I started last week. I think it's a little creepy that T&A Lady and I are on some wierd, advice-giving-columnist wavelength.
How low on the celebrity totem pole do you have to go before you no longer have to tolerate the adult children of celebrities and their pitiful attempts to re-live their parents' "glory days"? As an Ann Landers fan, I am not sure whether Dear Abby even had a glory day, so why is her daughter forcing us to walk the same lovelorn path that teens in 1960 were treading? And is she really making her living off of selling pamphlets about wedding planning and some such? I realize that this problem (C-list celebrity children) is not as pressing as the SCOTUS nomination (what IS a charm offensive?) but TomKat is the sole province of T&A, and Bradgelina's touching adoption and recent struggle against meningitis puts them off-limits. Plus, they bore me to tears so I can only google them once every fiscal year.
Admittedly, I need to warm back up to this blogging thing.
