so attractive, a train wreck in progress.

Christian morals beauty sex and scandal, plus its not some middle-aged politician or reverend in the spotlight.

It is 'news' for the younguns and old alike, so good fodder.

Who? Don't know. Probably don't want to.

and I will NOT google it!

but I have no idea who she is.

why no one commented on the snark

At first I thought this headline was a parody by The Onion. But it's real:

Carrie Prejean? Don't answer that. I'm glad I don't know.

intrigues me.

Is it that agonistas have more lofty interests?

Something that has christian overtones overlaid with personal sexual behaviour is distasteful?

There is an interesting mix of christian morality, business, legal and sexuality happening in this story, which although I have not followed it closely, has made headlines around the world.

A quote that almost deconstructs itself:

Miss California Law Suit

‘‘With her newfound notoriety, an inflated sense of self, and the lure of financial gain available to her, Ms Prejean turned even further against the Miss California USA organisation.

‘‘She attempts to cast herself as a virtuous young woman and the victim in a supposed conspiracy against her.

‘‘Had she heeded the guidance of the Gospel of John, who admonished only those who are without sin to cast stones in judgment, she might have avoided this legal battle.’’- age.com.au

She's a real borderline case and not worth the time of day, but this 2.5 minutes is priceless, truly.

:)

and embodied the same kind of "themes" ... All American Female, standing up for what is Right based on her Family and Religious Values, attacked by the Liberal Immoral Left.

Now it turns out that she is not the image she portrayed. She is actually a lot like Palin without (so far) the political career.

and I had to look up her name to determine who she was. I don't think finding out was of any value to me, though.

I really like not having a TV. When I go on the road and stay in motels, I check into that world. Every time, I'm sort of shocked how much worse it seems to have gotten since the previous time I watched it. I think some desensitization has become necessary to watch TV without feeling ill, or at least seriously disrespected.

and say in an televised interview, "Carrie Prejean is an airhead, and her 15 minutes of fame expired long ago." L0L

Porsche fondue anyone?

A Porsche dealership in the Netherlands has created a choc-top version of the 911 Carrera supercar.

According to internet reports, the world’s most expensive chocolate treat has been covered in 175kg of Swiss chocolate as part of a publicity stunt for the Dutch feast of Sinterklaas, a national holiday to honour St Nicholas, the patron saint of children and the forerunner of the modern Santa Claus.

The dealership, Porsche Centrum Gelderland, covered the $250,000 sports car in cling wrap before pouring the molten chocolate over it.

For added artistic effect, the creators of the edible 911 used white chocolate for the headlights and foglights.

Sinterklaas is celebrated in the Netherlands on the night of December 5 and people have traditionally made chocolate letters to mark the occasion.
