Lookalikes: Saddam Hussein

  • Doesn't Saddam Hussein look like Dennis Miller in the latest video? "What can I tell ya - gassing those Kurds was just like replacing Uncle Bud on "My Three Sons" with Uncle Charlie. Who's gonna notice?"
  • AT&T Natural Voices - text-to-speech converter. Sent to me by Robb, who likes the U.K. English Woman's voice (Audrey). He likes making her say, "Bitch! You gonna die, ho!"
  • Kim Wilde is appearing in a commercial on British TV. A sad reminder of the passage of time for those of us who lusted after her in the "Kids In America"/"Water On Glass" days. She's really into gardening now.
  • Speaking of commercials, the Right Guard ad with Michael Strahan playing golf is shown in the UK, but without his name in the voiceover since the Brits don't know who he is. (You can watch the UK version and US version here if you don't believe me.)
  • And, finally, a poem:

Sienna Miller
Should have hired a nanny who looks like Phyllis Diller.
