Random Thoughts, Starring an Odd Sandra Oh

• Someone out there may be wondering why my Today's News blog hasn't come within a country mile of this Donald Trump/Vince McMahon/"Who will shave their head?" nonsense. I think the last word of the previous sentence says it all.

• Speaking of the Donald.... I get in the mail the other day a (seemingly) hand-addressed invitation with a Trump return address. "Finally," I thought for a moment. "My years of steadfastly standing by The Apprentice and Q&Aing the castoffs has not gone unnoticed. I'm off to a high-society soiree!" In actuality? Some Learning Annex nonsense. Grr.

• For, like, forever, DVR ads have steered clear of touting the fast-forward button, only publicizing Pause and Instant Replay. "Big Advertising must be breathing down their neck," I assumed. So how is Dish Network now getting away with ads flaunting "Skippy," the FF button that neuters "geckos, ducks and cavemen"?

• I know that "smiley" magazine covers sell best, but something isn't right with the March Marie Claire. I see the photo shoot going down like this:

Photographer's assistant: "Hey, Sandra, I'm ordering lunch. What can I get you?"
Sandra Oh: "Thanks! I'd like a chicken--" CLICK!

I thought that MC cover hideous as well. It ought to have brown paper covering it.

That magazine cover looks crazy. Her body makes her head appear VERY large. She looks like a lollypop. Celebrities need to start eating. I'd much rather look at someone with a curvy body like Catherine Zeta Jones than someone like that.

If that's the picture they went with, I hate to see what the others they had to choose from looked like!

Please stop referring to donald trump as 'the donald'. He is NOT the donald. THE DONALD would be Donald Duck! donald trump is merely a man with a big wallet, mouth, pompover, and ego. Enough said?
