"God Not Attending Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes Wedding

VATICAN CITY - God issued a brief press release yesterday explaining that he won't attend the wedding of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes because he fears his presence would turn the ceremony into a media circus. Many god watchers interpreted his absence as a snub because he is offended by sham marriages between Catholic women and gay movie stars outside the church.

God's statement insists, however, that his absence is motivated simply by a desire not to infringe on the couple's privacy. In addition, the statement noted, god's decision should not be interpreted as payback for Mr. Cruise' snub of god's mother, Oprah Winfrey, who was not invited to the wedding.

"Nevertheless," Vatican insiders whisper "there was no way the big guy was going after he heard L. Ron Hubbard's seat at the wedding table was closer to the groom's than his."

In other wedding-of-the-century news, Entertainment Tonight is reporting that Ms. Holmes will wear a white satin jumper-gown, a high-fashion replica of the outfit she wore on her first date with Mr. Cruise, a visit to Chuck E. Cheese.

The menu for the reception is reported to include an open pizza bar followed by a sit down dinner of Salisbury steak, cheese fries, and creamed corn—and that's just for Kirstie Alley and her party.

Dessert is chocolate ice cream sculpted to resemble Oprah Winfrey's face. Guests are provided with tiny bowls of warn Vanilla Sky sauce to pour over the Oprah image.

A local winery, in return for being allowed to place its logo on the bride and groom's souvenir matchbooks, provided complimentary glasses of a forty-four-year-old merlot described as "short on the tongue but virile for its age."

Guests are "strongly advised" to arrive two hours prior to the ceremony in order to give themselves time to freshen up after being strip searched. Cell phones and cameras will be confiscated, and guests' hands will be stamped with an image of a L. Ron Hubbard. Guests have been informed that if they leave the reception hall, they will not be readmitted.

At least Katie had something old (Tom), something new (Suri), something borrowed (Scientology) and something blue (her family's mood, caused by her marrying Cruise-Control).

Belinda Emmett Died This Morning

I just saw the news on tv :(

Belinda Emmett Passes Away

I guess the news is still fresh because it was the only article I could find when I googled it.

I know it isn't a shock per se, because Belinda (Rove McManus's wife for those that are going "huh?") had been fighting cancer for the past eight years. She was first diagnosed with breast cancer, had treatment and was in remission. Then it spread. She has shown a lot of optimism though and no one had any idea she was losing the battle fast...

So, it wasn't a shock but it was a sad surprise. I did a double take at the tv and went "WHAT?! Awwww nooooo".

I feel so sad for her and Rove.

Took Your Cell Phone For A Swim?

Here's an article I ran into recently and thought it might be a help to all cell/mobile phone owners (lets face it, who doesn't have a cell phone these days?)

It's basically some tips on what to do if your phone goes for a swim, whether it be in the ocean, toilet or your drink at the local pub...

Rescuing a wet cellphone

It's one of those 'useless bits of info, that might come in handy one day' sorta deal.

You're welcome, in advance *wink*.

Sometimes I Get These Urges

...to be a smartass and do things like taking a marker and writing '=16' on all the vehicles that have '4x4' on them.

Or maybe that's too clever. I should show that I'm 'street/ghetto fabulous' enough and make it an even '20'.
