A Million Little Pieces

By now I am hoping that someone has heard about the controversy about the book A Million Little Pieces. If not, this book is written by James Frey (below) who wrote a book about his life

as a druggy alcoholic adult. The book was supposed to be a true story about his life, at least, that's what he said when he went on Oprah and sold 1.77 million copies of his book (better than the Harry Potter books). Recently however, he said he had fabricated his autobiography and now, people well, are pissed. Some people think that Oprah could have done the research on this book and figured it out, but why should she have had to? I personally think that if he really did lie in his book that he is responsible for the effects of this and should pay the consequence's. I started to read the book and had no idea it was on Oprahs book list or that it was a "real" story (or did I?). Now his book has probably sold more because of all of this controversy.

On a different note, George Bush was at a college in Kansas doing a question and answer ceremony. Most of the questions were "I love you" or something like that, but one college student asked Bush "You're big on ranching right? So, have you seen the movie Brookback Mountain?" Mainly Bush just stuttered around and said "no" a couple of times. But, this kid was so big he went on talk shows telling why he asked the question and what he expected Bush to say.

Cye The Cyclops Cat

Now some of you may have already seen or heard about this cat and I'm sorry that the picture wasnn't up sooner, but here she/he/it is.


Sadly enough, this cat only lived one day.

The Ultimate E-Mail Forward

This post goes out there to all who have recieved or sent these crappy fowards. After reading, think about what your doing, a good deed. So keep on sending these helpful tips on, well everything unimportant in life.

On behalf of all of us who get such emails daily... I want to thank all of you who have taken the time and trouble to send me your chain letter emails over the past 12 months. Thank you for making me feel safe, secure, blessed, and wealthy. I must send my special thanks to whoever sent me the one about rat poop in the envelope glue. I now have to get a wet towel for every envelope that needs sealing.

Because of your concern, I no longer drink Coca Cola because it can remove toilet stains, and I no longer drink Pepsi or Dr Pepper since the people who make these products are atheists who refuse to put "Under God" on their cans.

I no longer check the coin return on pay phones because I could be pricked with a needle infected with AIDS, and I no longer go to shopping malls because someone will drug me with a perfume sample.

I no longer receive packages from, nor send packages by, UPS or FedEx , since they are actually Al Qaeda in disguise.

I no longer answer the phone because someone will ask me to dial a number for which I will get a phone bill with calls to Jamaica, Uganda, Singapore, and Uzbekistan.

I no longer buy expensive cookies from Neiman Marcus since I now have their recipe, and I no longer worry about my soul because I have 363,214 angels looking out for me.

Also, thanks to you, I have learned that God only answers my prayers if I forward an e-mail to seven of my friends and I make a wish within five minutes.

I no longer have any savings because I gave it to a sick girl who is about to die in the hospital (for the 1,387,258th time).

Hell, I no longer have any money at all. But that will change, once I receive the $15,000 that Microsoft and AOL are sending me for participating in their special e-mail program.

Thanks so much for looking out for me.

Now forward this email to at least 144,000 people in the next 60 minutes or you'll suffer the terrible fate of choking to death on your next meal.

I know this will occur because it actually happened to a friend of my next door neighbour's ex-mother-in-law's second husband's cousin's beautician. Really.
