Joan Rivers is on fire!

Post by Jack »

(Sorry, somebody said that today and I HAD to use it as a title. Isn't it such an awesome image in your head?)

So Joan Rivers won the Celebrity Apprentice.

Joan Rivers has lived through bulimia, bankruptcy, familial estrangement, and suicide, and she looks awesome in that Hollywood-plastic surgery way. And she's still going.

She is 75 years old. I love her.

Tell us something.: I used to be a regular then I took up the bassoon. Bassoons don't have a lot of chiff. Not really, I have always been a drummer, and my C&F years were when I was a little tired of the drums. Now I'm back playing drums. I mist the C&F years, though.

She was hysterical when she used to guest host for Carson. At some point I stopped finding her funny, and I'm not sure if it was me or her.

Her schtick was fresh back then though. She should have never dragged her daughter into it.

What I like about her most is that she's not afraid to make fun of herself (what's left of her, anyway).

A coworker of mine entered a contest and won a date with her. Really. They sent a limosine out from Manhattan to pick him up in New Jersey, and they went to dinner together. He showed me videos on YouTube a few months ago. He said she's about four feet tall and swears like a sailor off-camera, but he liked her.

Oh, yeah: also a mod here, not a spammer. A matter of opinion, perhaps.

Is that the famous day the hudson cought fire?
And now there was no doubt that the trees were really moving - moving in and out through one another as if in a complicated country dance. ('And I suppose,' thought Lucy, 'when trees dance, it must be a very, very country dance indeed.')
