It's Horoscope Time!!

Hey hey everyone, it's Wednesday & not only does that mean humpage it also means that it's Real Detroit Horoscope day, yay!!!

Do you want to see your Friends on the big screen?

Well, apparently the cast of Friends have signed on to do a theater release movie which will come out next year.  Personally as someone who watched Friends & has seen every episode about 30 times & has the board game I think this is a really bad idea.  According to this article everyone was on board except Jen but once she saw how awesome SATC did in the theaters & the fact that they are working on the second one, which will likely be as awesome as the first, she thought that maybe it was time to change her mind.  There is one major difference though...SATC the series was on cable & Friends was network which meant it was filmed in front of (or shown to) an audience so you have the laughter going on throughout the show & I highly doubt the movie will be the same way & that takes away a huge part of the show.  It's so much easier turning cable shows into movies because each episode is almost like a mini movie...no commercials, honest language (cursing & what not), nudity, and more real life situations.  Now I'm not saying I wouldn't see the Friends movie but I'd more than likely either see a matinee or wait for DVD & I can say that even though the show was a way bigger hit than SATC there isn't a chance in hell that the movie will earn half of what SATC did.  Who knows, maybe it will help some of the failing careers that seem to be looming around most of the cast.

ATL Housewives' Kandi's Fiance Killed

Kandi Burruss (singer & piece of ATL Housewives' puzzle) lost her fiance A.J. (Ashley Jewell) over the weekend when he was involved in a bar brawl outside an Atlanta strip club Friday night.  He received a blunt blow to the head & was rushed to the hospital where he died early Saturday morning.  A.J. is leaving behind 6 children and obviously Kandi is beyond devastated especially because she also lost her uncle Ralph who's funeral was yesterday.  Not to mention that A.J.'s family just went through the horrific ordeal with his niece who was I believe killed by a drunk driver, if she wasn't killed she was certainly severely injured.  I feel absolutely awful for his kids, Kandi's daughter & all families & friends involved.  Even though Kandi's mom couldn't stand A.J. I'm sure she would never wish this on anyone & will hopefully be there for her daughter through this whole process.  The whole thing is so sad and it's going to be very strange watching them plan their wedding on the show knowing that he's gone.

So, this Letterman "scandal"...

I don't really think it's a scandal at all. Letterman has had sex with some of his female staff...oh no, who cares? The man was single for like 20 years & single people often tend to sleep with coworkers, it's convenient. Anyway, the scandal I guess is that someone was trying to blackmail him with the dirt about the "terrible things" he has done. Well, Letterman & the DA "paid" the blackmailer $2M (on a fake check) to silence them & then they must have been taken into custody since Letterman had to testify before the grand jury. The article doesn't say if the blackmailer is someone who worked for him or was involved in any sexual activity with him but they apparently had some dirt because they said they wanted to write a screenplay about his behavior. Anyway, I don't really give a shit...do whatever you want so long as you stay funny & deal with your family matters with your family. I do think it is great that he took to his show with his statement rather than letting the info just leak out & for him to be misrepresented in the matter.

Heidi On The View

Let me just say that Heidi wasn't that bad on The View but that's only because she didn't talk much. I did enjoy the fact that the women questioned both her & Spencer about their marriage & basically told them that neither of them trust each other & that does not make a good marriage which is totally true. Heidi wants babies & Spencer is having less sex with her because he doesn't trust that she is taking her birth control or that she wouldn't tamper with a condom. Seriously? If you can't even trust your wife to not sabotage your life why would you want to marry her? The most important question I have though is this...what was with the stupid necklace Spencer was wearing? He looked even more like a douche than usual!!

DJ AM...not a suicide?

I don't buy that one bit! Here is an excerpt that I nabbed from E! "Adam Goldstein died accidentally of "acute intoxication" after consuming a lethal cocktail of cocaine, painkillers, sleeping pills and mood-alterers including OxyContin, Vicodin, Benadryl, Xanax, Ativan and Klonopin." I'm sorry but nobody accidentally takes cocaine & then 8 other things on top of it & not to mention that the initial reports said that he was found with Oxy in his mouth that he wasn't able to take due to losing consciousness.  Who accidentally takes 9 Oxy on top of all those other drugs?  That's right...someone who is trying to kill themselves.  I think the only reason they are saying all of this is because his show is coming out on MTV very soon about substance abuse & DJ AM is trying to counsel these junkies to make better decisions.  I feel awful for his friends & his family but really, they should use his death as an example on the new show like a "see what could happen to you if you keep on the way you are" kind of thing.  Regardless of what the reports claim I am very certain that he was pretty messed up from that plane crash & couldn't take it anymore...I'm not saying that his suicide was planned, I think that maybe the suicide was accidental like he was just hoping that all those drugs would wash away the pain when in reality it washed away his life.

I'm so effing sick of road construction!

What the eff is going on? All these "putting Michigan to work" signs all over the place & orange barrels right underneath them yet guess what? Nobody is effing working! I was 15 minutes late today because the road crew had ten mile tore to shit complete with large pot holes which I'm sure fucked up my car in some way as I had to go through about 20 of them. It's pouring rain outside and these jackasses are moving around barrels & fucking up everyone's morning commute...even the school bus who pulled a u-turn in an attempt to find an alternate route. The street outside my apartment is also all tore to shit & nobody is working on that either but they were putting up some new barrels this morning! This has been going on since August on both streets & I'm sorry but here's my thought...fucking finish it & be done!! All they are doing is repaving the road & if they can tear out, replace the sewers & repave Garrison in 3 weeks I don't see why this shit should be any different...oh that's right, I live in Oakland County now & they are very lax about all road maintenance. During all the snow last year I would notice that even 3 days after the snow fell they still hadn't salted or plowed 10 mile. I wonder if the lag in getting the work done is that the people that are doing it are corporate people who lost their job & settled for this one. They have no clue what the hell they are doing so they just stand around & wait for instructions, given the "putting Michigan to work" theory that would kind of make sense. Honestly I don't give a shit who is doing the work I would just like it finished right away, like seriously, I would appreciate both roads being done by October 15th, thanks!!

Oh Khloe, Don't Be Stupid!!

So I'm sure you have all heard by now that Khloe Kardashian is getting married to Lamar Odom who plays for the Lakers. At least the couple have been dating long enough to make an informed decision to get married, I mean, a whole month...that's like a decade in celeb years.

According to Khloe's blog they are getting married on Sunday, yes this coming Sunday & it's so convenient that filming for Keeping Up is currently underway, I wonder if we'll get to see the nuptials on the show?  Personally, I don't get it, this guy must have taken quite a few hits to the head because he looks like he's missing a few pieces in the chess set. I'm guessing he must be hung like a horse which is great, but it's no reason to marry someone.  I give this marriage 6 months at the most, with him leaving for the basketball season soon I can only see lies & cheating in their future.  I hope I'm wrong because even though she's an idiot, she's still my favorite Kardashian sister.  So good luck to Khloe and Lamar as they embark on one of the biggest mistakes they will ever make!!

Ultimate Who Does That!

OMFG, how did I not know that Mackenzie Phillips had an affair with her dad for 10 years?  That's right...she was getting freaky with her father, I'm sorry but that is just sick.  This apparently happened in the 80's & 11 years later Mackenzie told her half sister Chynna about it which shocked the shit out of her & obviously disgusted her as well.  If you want to learn all about the affair then pick up Mackenzie's new book High On Arrival in which she apparently dishes all.  I knew this girl was a mess & had major drug problems for the majority of her life but I'm sorry, nothing can drive you to screw your father!!
