Let's get that cherry popped. My first blog...




So, here's my first blog. Lots of pressure... but... I'll take this thing out for a spin.




Okay, so-- I was just telling the show about this earlier today.... funny special on the History Channel that I watched last night. By "funny", I mean "terribly sad". They were examining the difference between the way famous people throughout history have handled trying situations. I laughed myself ridunculous when they compared Paris Hilton's body language to that of The President. Please don't misunderstand- I'm not a fan of either of the two but they showed a clip of Paris' exit from prison after serving her time. Then they showed a clip of G.W trying to exit through these giant double doors and failing miserably (we've all seen the clip). Well, after examining the body language between the two, they decided that Paris handled her situation more appropriately. She'd clearly practiced clasping her hands, walking briskly and keeping her shoulders back. Instead of doing her typical princess wave- she kept to herself and focused straight ahead on the car her parents were in. Then.... there's George. When he tried to open the set of double doors, they compared his reaction to that of a five year old. He pushes on the right door. Nothing. Pushes the left door. Nope. Pulls the right door. No dice. Pulls the left door... uh... No. He giggles a bit. Throws all of his weight into it to no avail. He looks over at the cameras the way a 5 year old boy would after successfully launching into a tantrum in the candy isle. He walks back to where he came from. He tells the crowd "Ha. The door wont open". Then Georgie decides to duck back behind a free standing wall-type thing and probably hung out there until everyone exited the room. According to the entire panel of behavioral experts- Paris Hilton (the chick who became famous for humping a dude while being filmed on a night-vision camera) WINS! She handles situations of strife with more grace than the leader of our country. Ho hum.
There.


That's my first blog. Voila.
