Last Night I Saw Giada

Yes.
Yes I did.
It was a great moment in my life.

Last night in Santa Monica, with my Wife! and our dear friend Kimb, we were checking out The Promenade for dining options.

Stuff happened.

Then IT happened. I saw Giada De Laurentiis. She was walking with her husband to a movie theatre. I was stunned, I was all like "Hey... hey... that's! She's! That's Giada De Laurentiis!"

I WAVED. Her husband nodded and smiled. I just looked like a big dork and WAVED at them. Nice people, from what I could tell. Bathed. Clean 'bout the hocks. Sharp dressing.

Seriously, she is gorgeous on TV. WAY more gorgeous in the setting sun of Santa Monica's shopping area. Beautiful.

Totally awesome. I saw Zach Braff a few days ago, pff, totally blew that outta the Vanilla Ice Blended blurb Zach quaffed at Coffee Bean.

Uggos Got Talent!

Susan "The Brow" Boyle rocketed into the first 3minutes of her fame 2 weeks back for a knock-out singing performance on "Britain's Got Talent." It stunned the judges - including Simon "The Brush" Cowell (he who made Clay Aiken gay), who we're slowly finding out may have had something to do with, oh, you know... keeping Susan in the basement until the world needed a Prejudice Makeover. Boyle heats it up, folks. Go watch! (can't embed the vid here)

Simon Cowell... a master marketeer and promotional wi-zar-do? >shrug< style="color: rgb(51, 204, 0); font-weight: bold;">like a garage," and was once mistaken for a flock of bats. Yet we are so dearly impressed and uplifted at watching a person who is not "traditionally attractive"/traffic-stoppingly off-beat-looking express themselves in a beautiful way, especially through music.

If this person had been WWOOOHWOWOWOOOWOOOOOOOOOO on a didgeridoo outside the Pottery Barn, most folks would probably light one of them on fire. But under the lights, backing tracks swelling up and we are FOR seeing somebody we wouldn't give a second look belt out some showtunes.

Let's see...

• Shunned by most based on their looks
• Awkward because of the previous statement, yet wanting to stun the world somehow (without their own centrifuge... NOW I'm in The Database for sure)
• Plenty of time to practice

And that's what we get. A monster, uncaged, in the spotlight they've thought themselves into a thousand times in their life.
