This is the first time I am using WFME for a seriously opinionated blog post.
I know people visit this blog for entertainment purposes and I know the last thing anyone wants to hear about is a serious rant that has nothing to do with bread bowls, Freddie Prinze Jr. or my ability to eat six packs of crackers in less than a minute without drinking anything whatsoever. But there’s something going on in this country right about now that is completely driving me absolutely, whole-heartedly, completely and utterly mad.
So if you don’t want to hear about how our First Amendment rights are being curtailed by corporate America and the government — then move along… There’s nothing here to see.

You may or may not have heard about Alec Baldwin’s threatening message to his 11 year old daughter, Ireland.
Whether or not you did, Baldwin’s been getting a lot of press in the last few days, calling him a horrible father and generally holding him over the fire. It’s yet another example of people in this country becoming even less tolerant of the words that others use to describe people. From Imus being fired off his radio show to Alec Baldwin’s telephone voice mail “rage” — it seems that people are going to have to find new ways of saying degrading things, without getting in trouble.
Today, WFME helps out Alec Baldwin — with new ways to call his daughter “a thoughtless little pig.”

A slew of star sightings are this weekend’s talk of the town, confirming yet again that celebrities are just like you and me.
Take for example Leonardio DiCaprio seen putting a dollar coin into a parking meter and jamming the darn thing up, then throwing his hands up in frustration when he realized he’d probably end up getting a parking ticket. Or what about Katie Holmes, seen this weekend in Beverly Hills shopping with Victoria Beckham…at a local Crate & Barrel store where one was overheard saying to the other, “Do you think they’re having a sale?”
Or what about that celebrity sighting of Paris Hilton, seen eating an ice cream cone from the bottom up (biting the bottom then sucking ice cream through the funnel) after taking a penny from a local Ben & Jerry’s tip dish, just to cover her ice cream purchase? And what about Charlie Sheen, seen moving his car so that the meter maid’s chalk mark on his tire wouldn’t be seen the next time they came around the block?
There’s been a slew of other sightings this past week of celebs doing things just like you and me. Katherine Heigl from Grey’s Anatomy was seen hitting her brakes to keep a tailgater from driving too close. Sally Field was seen squeezing squashes at a local outdoor farmer’s market. Neil Patrick Harris of TV’s How I Met Your Mother was spotted at a local Hollywood gym staying on the elliptical machine for over 30 minutes (which was the posted limit of time one could stay on the fitness machines), then resetting the clock so no one would know he’d been on for like fifty minutes. Or what about WFME’s favorite Sarah Michelle Gellar spotted out and about smoking a pack of cigarettes, and addicted to the darn things just like you and me!?
And across the coast, in Gotham, SNL’s Andy Samberg was spotted with mustard on the corner of his mouth, Alec Baldwin was seen adjusting his shoe, Jack Nicholson was overheard complaining about an uncooked doughnut, and let’s not forget reports about Jim Belushi buying stamps from an ATM! Just like you. And just like me.
It’s nice to know that celebrities are real people.
Isn’t it?
