Low Fives: 02/01/09

February 1st, 2009

Low fives this week was like shooting a fish in a barrel:

  1. If you ever wondered where the dogs they sell on the internet come from, just read this story. 600 dogs seized, 80% of them are pregnant. You do the math.
  2. Jessica Simpon’s a bigger star than ever.” God, I can’t believe that this story won’t die. And perhaps this is a bit snarky, but those high waisted jeans are the real travesty in this story.
  3. I watched Al Gore testify about global warming before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on CNN. I really hope they are listening.
  4. I’m sorry to all you Croc lovers, but this has crossed the line.
  5. If you didn’t see him in his full media blitz, Rod Blagojevich compared his imprisonment to the jail terms of Mandela, Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr. Pathetic.

Just in case you wondered what Jessica Simpson looked like before the hoopla, look here. I was going to embed her Youtube video, but it now mysteriously says “embedding disabled by request.” Fascinating.

Here’s a video of some puppies and a cat instead:

    Dog bed: Wow.

    Jessica Simpson: Everyone get over it already, right?

    Thank you for the puppies. That made me happy. :) Have a good week!

    High five on the croc thing. Jessica Simpson could at least have the decency to change her first name as I too am a Jessica and I’m tired of her giving us a bad rep for horrible fashion sense amongst other things. And yeah, toss the belt sister.

    Puppies trump Jessica Simpson every day of the week in my book. I will say though, that cat looked a little on the heavy side =)

    Who would buy that atrocious thing for their poor pet (and then PUT IT IN THEIR HOUSE)?!
