Obama’s speech at White House dinner

May 10, 2009 · Leave a Comment

The President might look into a stand-up comedy career after this White House gig. Here’s his very funny speech from last night’s White House Correspondents Dinner. Don’t miss the joke about Hillary Clinton hugging and kissing him when she came back from Mexico. Hilarious:

Awesome. He’s great. Very naturally funny.

Wanda Sykes at White House dinner

May 10, 2009 · 4 Comments

Check out sassy comedian Wanda Sykes teasing President Barack Obama during her dicey and sometimes hilarious routine at the White House Correspondents Dinner last night. She makes fun of everyoneJoe Biden, Nancy Pelosi, both the President and the First Lady — and says some outrageous stuff. Scandalous stuff, in fact:

Wow. Wanda was pushing it. Do you think she went over the line at all? The Sarah Palin abstinence joke? No? The Rush Limbaugh OxyContin joke?

I’m sure people will be discussing this routine.

Diane Keaton’s charming colonial home

April 24, 2009 · 4 Comments

Apartment Therapy has some pictures from inside the home of Diane Keaton, one of my favorite Hollywood actresses. Her decor, it appears, is as eccentric as she is. I love it.

Very warm. Very charming. Just like Diane. Favorite Diane Keaton moment? Argh, so hard to pick, but certainly one of them is that bit in 1973’s Sleeper when she and Woody Allen are walking down the long corridor nitpicking at each other and her character accuses Woody’s of being “retarded.”
