    I saw “Goodbye Alice, Hello” this morning. I do NOT like how Carol pointed her finger right in Alice’s face when she was demanding that Alice finger the kid who broke the lamp. Disrespectful.

    Yeah, Carol was treating Alice like one of the kids there. I recall another time when Carol and Alice were putting dishes away and apparently the dishes weren't clean enough and Carol kind of shook her head disapprovingly at Alice. Kay was probably a much better housekeeper than Alice, but Carol needed someone to be her friend too and that wasn't how Kay rolled. 

    One of my least favorite episodes of the series aired Sunday on MeTV -- "The Big Bet." Greg bets Booby he can do twice as many chin-ups as Shrimpo and when he fails to do so, he has to do pretty much everything Bobby tells him. I am thinking that both Mike and Carol realized their mistake in not leaving Bobby at Grand Canyon when he poked a hole in the convertible top at the drive-in with an umbrella. A replacement cover was $150. That would be $1,010 today.

    People, use birth control when engaging in sex tourism. Many of these relationships could have been avoided with this one simple rule.

    Makes me think of the Saturday Night Live sketch about Bad Idea Jeans. "Normally I use protection, but then I thought: 'when am I going to make it back to Haiti?'"

  3. There's a St. Jude's commercial that's been running for some time about a little girl named Amris who was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive form of brain tumor. The cure rate for this particular kind of cancer was very low and her odds at beating it were slim to none, but she managed to survive it through the excellent care provided by St. Jude's. Unfortunately the cancer came back. The announcer says at the end of the commercial that the wide range of treatments that were available for her second bout with the disease helped extend her life, but ultimately couldn't save her. Though I've seen this commercial a number of times, it's still a gut-punch. I hate cancer so much, especially when it attacks children.
