The View Blab Fest
Whoopi’s back! Now all is right with The View. I absolutely love her ~ even when she’s being rude and obnoxious, she’s funny as heck. Hot Topics Whoopi Tips Her Dreads Whoopi’s been away from The View filming a movie with Kate Hudson in New Orleans. While there she had a little tour of the city and stated that she was “tipping her dreads” to Brad Pitt for all the hard work he has put into rebuilding the 9th Ward. Apparently he is doing some marvelous things there. I’m happy that she gave an update on my adopted city. Betcha didn’t know I used to party live there back in…

It’s Over…For a Couple of Weeks Anyway
Last night was my last class of the semester. Oh, wait, you may not know this but in my other life I teach American History at one of the local Universities. The classes are 7 weeks long and meet once a week for 4 hours. Yes, I said 4 hours! I also teach traditional classes but I think by far my favorite has to be the 7 week session. Generally, my students are Nursing or Physical Therapy majors who are taking the class during the short session because they use the longer sessions for labs and such. At the beginning of the semester, I usually have the students go around…

Product Review and Giveaway: Olay Total Effects Body Wash (Closed)
I’ll be celebrating my birthday in a week and I’m not thrilled because it puts me three years closer to the big 4~0. Yes, I’m already agonizing over that birthday. In fact, I’m fighting the aging process every step of the way and with everything that I can possibly muster. Well, you know, everything except going under the knife. As I’ve gotten older (and had to start scrolling through the decades to find my birth year on those danged survey forms), I’ve noticed little things starting to change ~ fine lines around the eyes and mouth, dry skin on the arms and legs, limited elasticity, ok, I can’t go on….…

Today I woke up with such a massive headache that I didn’t think I’d get to watch The View. But I did it. Sometimes I can be such a trooper. Anyway, it was worth watching through one squinty eye so that I could keep up a running commentary with The View Brand Ambassadors on Twitter. Anyway, you know how it goes, grab a cup of coffee (100% Columbian Coffee, if you please) and let’s talk… Hot Topics Naomi Campbell She’s been hitting folks again. Are any of us surprised? This time it was her driver, who suffered a busted eye from being hit in the back of the head, yet…

Sweepstakes: What’s Behind the World’s Best Coffees?
My day begins at 5:30 AM and usually ends sometime around midnight. So how do I function? With copious amounts of coffee, of course. If I could have coffee fed to me through an IV, my life would be complete. Ok, maybe that’s a slight exaggeration but not by much. Over the years, I’ve had fun experimenting with coffees from different parts of the world but I can honestly say, some of my favorite coffees carry the 100% Columbian Coffee logo. Although you may not know the words, you know the logo ~ Juan Valdez and Conchita, his donkey. These two have come to symbolize the values that the organization…

The View Blab Fest
So the ladies walked onto the set to some incredibly regal sounding music, which I, of course commented on…. Um, I guess if I had watched more of the Olympics I would have known that it was the Canadian National Anthem. Doh! My genius was showing. My wrap~up today is incredibly brief. Why? Because Dish Network and the weather have conspired against me in a tag team match. Last week the show was cut short because of the “snurricane” and today the show was cut short because the satellite went out. *sigh* Hot Topics The Olympics I’m proud of our country and all of the athletes who competed in the…
