Lost and in need of Translation

Thursday, March 30th, 2006

Man, that Lost show is good. I wish I understood more of it.

For those of you who don’t watch the ABC program Lost, you may not get this post. Heck, you may not even get this post if you do watch Lost! Its one confusing, twisty and turny show!

Two of the biggest twists this season have been, interestingly enough, race related. Who would have thought Bernard, the sweet older black woman’s missing husband, would have ended up being white?!? And then, last night, what a shocker to find out that Henry Gale was a black man?!? And wasn’t “Henry Gale” a character from the Wizard of Oz? What a deep program, but I’ll be damned to know what it all means!

Also, last night, the hatch went into spontaneous lockdown for no apparent reason and Locke’s legs got wedged under one of the metallic panels (see, you kinda have to watch the show in order for that last sentence not to sound like the ravings of a mad man.) Then, as part of the lockdown, a black light was turned on revealing what appeared to be The Da Vinci Code on the wall. What the heck was that all about? Anyone know? Please reveal! Somebody help me, I’m Lost!

Miss Blogger 06! Nominee #4: Tracy Kaufman

Wednesday, March 29th, 2006



Just as Charlie Brown was in love with the the Little Red-Haired Girl, so is Dr. Blogstein. I mean, who doesn’t love a red head? They’re so rare, so original and usually cute as a button. Our fourth nominee for DR. BLOGSTEIN’S MISS BLOGGER 06!© is no exception.

Meet the lovely Tracy Kaufman and her unattractively titled blog The Three-Toed Sloth.

Tracy is a big city gal as she describes her location as “Manhattan by Day, Brooklyn by Night.” It means she must be tough, but there is no way of knowing that just by looking at her.

Check out her sweet and innocent smile and what appears to be a hickey on her neck. It screams “I’m friendly” and “I might make out with you.”

She’s the adorable girl next door who draws cute stick figure cartoons and evidently loves “Whole Foods like goats love tin cans.” (Whatever the hell that means?!?)

Have we found DR. BLOGSTEIN’S MISS BLOGGER 06!© in Tracy Kaufman? Its way too early to tell. But keep those nominations coming–you have until May 1st…

When Mommies Attack

Tuesday, March 28th, 2006

I’m hurt.

This is a very difficult post for me to write because I’m so hurt.

Way back on March 15, I was suffering from a from a condition known as writer’s block. But being the dedicated blogger that I am and knowing that you all expect daily cleverness from Dr. Blogstein, I worked through the problem the only way I knew how: By poking fun at lame websites across the Blogosphere.

One of those lame websites was A Mommy Story, which basically consists of pictures of cute little Cordy (and who can deny her overwhelming cuteness?) and stories regaling the cute things that she may have done that day. Think Kathy Lee Gifford and a “Cody and Cassidy” blog.

I made light-hearted fun, and even shared some banter with Christina, the actual Mommy of A Mommy Story in the comment section and everyone went home happy.

Or so I thought!

Today on A Mommy Story, Mommy makes mention of my post in a captivating expose on the difference between mommy blogs and mom blogs. I commend her, it was a good use of my post. My post was relevant to what she was writing about, and reading her article actually made me change my stance on the value of her kind of blogging. And, now everyone went home happy.

Or so she thought!

What followed was a constant barrage of disparaging comments that really hurt my sensitive feelings.

Comments that include “dutch” who said: “god that dork who put a picture of cordy as an example of a waste of internet space has such a lame blog. so boring…what some jerk watched on television the night before just doesn’t interest most people.” No? It doesn’t? Tell that to your favorite blogger, Mommy.

Then, “barbara” says: “The dude that put you in his blog, really if you think about it, has really nothing else going on in his life, but to make fun of others. Read his profile, YAAAAAWWWNNNN…what a shocker.” The same “barbara” whose profile begins “A Native Tacoma girl, born here, lived in Vancouver area until my Junior year,until moving back in 1986.” I know you’re all dying to hear what happens next in bab’s life.

Who knew moms could be so cruel?!? I mean, I knew they could send me off to bed wth no dessert or lock me in the garage for three days until I apologize for hiding Grandpa’s teeth but this Attack of the Mommies has caught me off guard and really hurt my feelings. I’m telling my mommy on you!

Miss Blogger 06! Nominee #3: Wee-Leng

Sunday, March 26th, 2006

Today we feature the our third nominee for DR. BLOGSTEIN’S MISS BLOGGER 06!© and her name is Wee-Leng.

“W-L,” as I’ll call her until she demands that I stop, is from Kuala Lumpur, the stunningly beautiful capital city of Malaysia. And for those of you who have no idea where Malaysia is, consult a map as I will not be a substitute for the education that you’re clearly lacking.

W-L’s blog is called Lights, Camera, Action and for a girl’s blog, its surprisingly guy friendly. Topless women, discussion of porn and a fascination with camel toe are just some of the things that you’ll find at Lights, Camera, Action that may cause you to wonder whether W-L truly is a girl. But then you see her and wonder no more.

Clearly, W-L not only stands for Wee-Leng, but also “Whatta Lady” and “We Likey!” Check out that oh so glorious view, not to mention the South China Sea in the background. There is little doubt that W-L will provide stiff competition to her fellow nominees in the quest to be named DR. BLOGSTEIN’S MISS BLOGGER 06!©
