Hit a bar and raise the bar.

Bosom friends,

Do you ever feel like a plastic bag
Drifting through the wind, wanting to start again?

Today I feel more like a paper bag. Recycled and recyclable. Just like the decorative sign I bought the other day:

New decor...

In search of a topic to rant about I typed on my Google search "trending today". Two very powerful words in the world of social media.

Well to say that I was underwhelmed by the search results is quite an understatement.

What I found first, was a plethora of pets being photographed by their proud owners with the same approach used by Terry Richardson when photographing Lady Gaga.
I even saw a handicapped turtle who can walk again thanks to a Lego wheel-chair. Now I can sleep soundly.
A two-year-old is being filmed while impersonating Bob Marley. There may be a niche market for him in Vegas in a few years. Make sure you book your tickets.
Justin Bieber is still trying to prove he has a big pendulum by going commando.

QVC shopping channel host Shawn Killinger and designer Isaac Mizrahi found themselves in a heated discussion — not about spring fashion trends but whether or not the moon is a planet.

Timbeeeeeer!

It all started with Killinger's comment about one of Mizrahi’s sweaters, "It kind of looks like what the Earth looks like when you're a bazillion miles away from the planet Moon."

"The planet Moon…" replied Mizrahi.

"From the planet Moon?… From the moon," Killinger said. "Isn’t the moon a star?"

Mizrahi forged ahead "No, the moon is a planet!"

Needless to say, the segment was all downhill from there.

The two continued to discuss whether or not the moon was a planet or a star. But I will just end the debate right here (according to NASA, the moon is classified as neither a star nor a planet, but rather as the Earth’s satellite). 

Live and learn.

Luckily all the episodes of Friends are now available on Netflix. All 236 of them. 

At least their silliness was scripted.

Most of what is trending made me wanna hit a bar to numb the pain. Hit it first with my head and then toss back a few.

Or I can just sit under my new sign and have my usual wine spritzer. How civilized.

Ciao for now.
