could kick your ass

hopefully now we’ll hear a lot less of the term ‘babydaddy’

April11

The past several months have been something like torture. The near constant press coverage of the Anna Nicole Smith melodrama led me to consider an Elvis Presley approach to television management until I finally realized that if I screamed loud enough Dan would turn it off out of just wanting me to stop. And despite my refusing to intentionally soak up anything ANS related I have managed to not only know exactly what is going on but also to have developed opinions on the matter.

I knew Birkhead was the babydaddy. Much as Dan somehow knew Clinton was lying. We have a sense of these things, Dan and I.

Throughout this ridiculous post death process I have refused to clutter my mind with up to the minute coverage of absolutely jack squat, but I confess that my interest perked a little when Dan gave me the news this morning. Larry Birkhead seemed to me the most genuine person in all of this. The lawyer husband (whatever his name is, I’ve no need of knowing) creeps me out and I found myself thinking he must have had something to do with it all in some sinister way. Birkhead, on the other hand, came across as a normal guy who honestly believed the child was his. Turns out, he knew what he was talking about and good for him not letting it go. Good for Dannielynn to because maybe with him she’ll have a chance at normal. Life with the lawyer husband who did not take issue with a constantly drugged up pastic wife could not have been so. Plus how long before she would be added to the list of people within his circle who turned up dead from drug overdose?

Now let’s have no more talk of it. Do you hear me, Entertainment Tonight? No more talk of it.

    I love the title of this post. That is all.:)

    Howard K. Stern (creepy lawyer) wasn’t even married to Anna Nicole. At least that article says he is supporting Birkhead (lesser of three evils I suppose – i’m including the estranged grandmother). I agree with the title of this post 100%! I’m engaged to a Bahamian, and ever ounce of “news” he got from home was jam-packed with Anna Nicole Smith gossip for the last year.

    Oh, hi. I’ve never commented. I’m Iona :)

    I am so glad that this little girl has a chance of a life with the person who seemed to be the most genuine in this whole mess.

    I was watching Entertainment Tonight a few times while I was waiting on American Idol or Survivor to start during the past couple weeks. And UGH. It is like they can’t get enough of the whole Anna Nicole Dannielynn (whatever) mess. I just wanted to say, “Get over it already. Do you really think viewers care this much?” But evidently they thought that viewers did. How wretched.

    this is a test of the spam stuff I just installed, this is only a test.

    if this were an actual comment content would be here…

    I repeat this is only a test.
