As I was telling Arthur this morning, Madonna fell off her horse again.

[fflo]

This time she says it was cuzza the paparazzi jumping out of the woods and scaring her/horse. On CNN, though, the occasion prompted crack entertainment reporter Somebody to recall that the last time we heard about Madonna falling off a horse, then-hubby Whoever's treatment of her as she recovered from her injuries was allegedly so unsympathetic that it almost certainly marked a turning point in their relationship. I.e., that may be the real crux of why they divorced.

I know about Madonna cuz I made it a point to watch this morning to see Kate Harding (of Shapely Prose) addressing the United butt-size policy baloney. Video here:

You're a far better person than I am.

(Not that I want her to get injured, of course. The cartoonish way I'm envisioning it, her horse rears up and, after a moment's defiance of gravity, Madge slides backward off the saddle into a mud puddle with a satisfying "Plop!" And then it happens to her again. And she mutters, "Oh, sod it!" in her fake British accent each time.)

Nay, waffler is not better. I'm trying to banish the inner waffler. The outer waffler, otoh, doesn't come out often enough---if that's the one who makes actual waffles, that is.

Doggoned wafflemaker always seems like such a pain to clean, y'know.

("sod it!": :)) )
