FOR WOMEN ONLY

saw 'jersey boys' again over the weekend and it was even better the second time around. they change the troupe approximately every nine months to renew the energy and that plan definitely works. the show is at the bank of america theatre in chicgo which is a spectacular venue for plays & musicals.  it ends june 3rd and even if you can't get there this time, make plans to see it when it re-visits chicago.  27 songs from frankie valli & the four seasons make the 2 1/2 hours fly by. a definite 'yes.'

the chicago police department had an impossible task over the weekend but pulled it off with a minimum of complaints. i was amused by the whining done by the 'black bloc' anarchists who physically pushed into the police line and were met with appropriate resistance by the boys in blue. "i can't believe they hit me with their night sticks. all we wanted to do was make a point" said one of the bleeding protesters.  i think the cops were also making a point.

just saw a photo of MILEY CYRUS at some awards show. she ain't hannah montana no mo'. wow.

sad to see robin gibb lose his battle to cancer.  he was the long haired one with the overbite who held his ear closed while singing his high pitched tenor. the BEE GEES captivated music thru the 70's & 80's and the group was only outsold by ELVIS, THE BEATLES, MICHAEL JACKSON, GARTH BROOKS & PAUL McCARTNEY as a solo.  not bad company.

CASEY ANTHONY, the most despised female in america, has been located by supoena servers in florida. anthony, acquitted of murdering her daughter last year, anthony is being sued for defamation of character against ZENAIDA GONZALEZ, who anthony accused of killing her daughter while babysitting her. a couple of small problems for ms. anthony.......she had never met gonzalez and gonzalez doesn't babysit. plus anthony's attorneys admitted under oath that anthony lied about the entire episode.  sounds like a good case to me.

just curious on this one. MELISSA BOWERMAN, 41, is married to JON BOWERMAN, 73, who was the co-founder of NIKE. despite their age difference, both volunteer as track coaches at an oregon high school. good so far.  melissa decided to escort a 17 year old boy to the prom last week and despite dancing three slow songs, "we're just friends" was her response. after investigating, the high school principal has asked melissa to 'un-volunteer.'  no kidding.

bye until next time.

airlines have thought of a new way to screw us. depending on the airline, we pay extra for luggage and we pay extra for aisle seats. now you're going to pay for the privilege of sitting with your travel companion.  that's right, if you want to sit with your husband at the time of the booking, it will cost you an extra twenty-five bucks. friendly skies this.

and finally, the female wrapup:  HILLARY CLINTON to run again in 2016? look for her to resign as secretary of state after november to circle the wagons.  if MITT ROMNEY has half a brain, CONDOLEEZZA RICE will be his pick for vice-president.  intelligent, well spoken and experienced in politics, she would bring or at least split the female vote in november and in what looks to be a very tight race, that could be the difference. SARAH PALIN? still  trying to remember the names of the three newspapers that she reads 'every day.'
