Yikes. Pet Treats are being recalled now! Del Monte pulled off some dog snacks from the shelves. I buy Del Monte snacks for my furbabies, especially the Bacon treats. I have never seen so many uneasy looks on the faces of those of us perusing the pet food aisles...many of us are talking to each other, trying to figure out which brand is safe now. The scary thing is, I don't think any of them are. Even though they aren't admitting it, I have a feeling they all buy wheat from China.
Oy.
Horrid thought: Do you think, since it's in the fertilizer, that WE ARE EATING this melamine stuff and it's in our systems?
Oy. I have to stop scaring myself every morning. Looking in the bathroom mirror is horrendous enough!

Last Call: If you are a romance book reviewer for a website and would like to read Virtually His for review (and clever snarkage), please email me at Jenn @ Gennita-Low.you know what. No spaces. I'll forward your website/contact info to my publicist. Serious inquiries only, please, since I have limited funds for xerox and postage ;-P. Making a copy costs about $9 per book and postage is $5 with return receipt. Times that with 50 copies sent out. Yikes. Now I know where my chocolate money went! ;-)

I've been watching The Amazing Race because they're going to Malaysia for one of its legs. Last night they were in Poland. If you've been watching, there's a team in the show that has two harpies, Charla and Mirna, who really do A LOT OF screeching and screaming at each other and at the locals. They get on my nerves whenever they start one of their "talk to foreigners in a loud, accented tones and use 'my friend' to address" routine.
Anyway, at the end of the leg, one of them had to dress up in medieval armor and lead a horse for half a mile. Charla chose to do this task. Charla, btw, is a about four feet tall. The sight of her in a King Arthur armor. Falling Over. Leading a gigantic horse with the "thingie." Her horse obstinately stopping to eat shrubbery. I started choking at the thought of Charla screaming "Nih!" ala Monte Python and The Holy Grail. Mirna trying to tempt the horse with sausage. Charla splatting on her face again.
OMG. I'm so going to hell for laughing.
Wouldn't it have been De Bestest, if Phil, The Amazing Race host, dressed up like this while he waited at the finishing mat? I would pay to see that.

More funny mean stuff: Did you catch the Saturday Night Live spoof of Sanjaya (American Idol finalist) singing, with the required sobbing "girl" looking on? Snort. You know you've made it into the cultural (UN)consciousness when SNL is spoofing you! You feel me, my sistahs and brothahs?
