Breaking News

I'm not sure if you will ever forgive me but I give the feeble excuse that I have been sick. Too sick to be able to report this earth shattering news that will change your life for frickin' evah!.

I know, I know, the cranky old farts and the beautiful young ladies pride themselves on being on top of all things arty, and farty, and cultural, and cuddly, stoic and sophisticated, new and nuanced, iconic and un-ironed.

Well, it finally happened, the New York Public Library held a forum on Monday to discuss the most pressing topic of our time:

Does Michelle Obama have a new stylist?

You decide. This is too important to take any one else's word.

  1. lol, I really could care less about Michelle Obama too, Fay.

    I'm so sorry to hear you're sick :-( Nothing serious, I hope...

    You, Luther, DWT, lewy...you've all had injuries or been sick! So sorry to hear it, I'm sure Matt is taking wonderful care of you.

    Hugs to you, Fay.

  2. Aww Fay, I didn't know you were sick! I hope you feel better very soon. {{{Magic Fayre}}} :X

    LMAO! I love that!

    Big Mo's haistylist? Pfft. It would be a hard-hitting, lead news story for NPR or Brian Williams. A headline even! Breaking news! A news FLASH!!! Nay, an Emmy-winning story of profound national importance! Stop the TelePromTers, comrades! This just in!

    Me? She could have a nest of spiders in there for all I care. (Ew! Shudder...) ;))

  3. Yes - feel better Fay!

    You know, I've honestly hope so; I'm certainly no fan of her or her husband, but I still want the office to be held in respect. What the First Lady wears is certainly not earth-shattering, but it's just another one of those things... If she appears at public events looking like she was dressed in the dark by color-blind people who hate her, it's yet another blow to the image of the country as a whole. I am happy for us when I see her looking elegant (which she has a couple of times); I cringe most of the time. And the "She's just like Jackie O!" hysterics when she's clearly NOT just doesn't help either...

    Time will tell.

  4. The whole "grab the drapes from a Motel6 and add armholes" look is horrible, IMO. It's downright embarrassing. Now that she's scored a new stylist, maybe it will prompt her to hire a new clothes designer too. Or a new clothes-picker-outer. Or whatever.

    I'm not holding my breath, nor am I giddy with anticipation.

    Heh, I seem to be very catty this morning. Quick, someone bring me a saucer of milk! Meeow....:D

  5. Michelle Obama has but one "style" ... short waisted ala Euro Empire cut or Korean Ariyang dresses ...e.g., belt waist goes about 4 inches below the boobs. Whoopie Goldberg can explain it ... and has done so.

    Thanks for the good wishes ladies, I had a cold bug that laid me low for a few days but I'm up and about now.

  7. I'm glad you're better, Fay, and I hope Mr. & Mrs. Redhawk weren't impacted by those awful storms in AK...

  8. No, we were lucky this time, and the storms went south of us. We'd battened everything down though, because we thought we were going to get clobbered.
