Am I the only one who is a tad frightened by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.msnbc.msn.com\/id\/23871853\/\">Kathie Lee Gifford<\/a> on that 4th hour of<span style=\"font-style: italic;\"> The Today Show<\/span>? She is so intense, so&#8230;what&#8217;s the word? Amped? And she&#8217;s quite honey blonde for her age, no? Oh, and was<span style=\"font-style: italic;\"> loving <\/span> Whoopi&#8217;s tirade about paying taxes on <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">The View&#8217;s<\/span> &#8220;Hot Topic&#8221; show today. I <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">live<\/span> for Whoopi. And of course, there&#8217;s always <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">The People&#8217;s Court<\/span>. I don&#8217;t care what anyone has to say, I proudly tune in and yes, I trust Judge Milian. I&#8217;ve learned a lot from that show like, your co-worker will <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">always<\/span> stiff you on the bill for that cell phone you got for him\/her and also, it&#8217;s not smart to pay upfront for a summer sublet (what if there are bed bugs?) I&#8217;m not making this up!<\/p>\n<p>For now, I&#8217;m entranced by an episode of <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Law &amp; Order: SVU<\/span>, a show I rarely watch. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hbo.com\/thewire\/cast\/characters\/weebey.shtml\">&#8220;Wee-Bey&#8221;<\/a> from The Wire, who is way, <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">way<\/span> chocolate (smile), has a guest spot. So does &#8220;Cheryl,&#8221; who played Kima&#8217;s girlfriend. And even though it&#8217;s old news, who would have ever thunk that Ice T would wind up playing a cop on TV? A-mazing. Hilarious, actually.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After sitting around all last week, waiting (and waiting), for an interview to happen, the call finally came early Sunday afternoon.
