Make Believe Conversations

I often find myself having a conversation with someone who is real but not with me.

Crazy?

Sure.

But I feel better after I've imaginarily talked myself through an issue with someone. I'd have a real conversation, but people like James Carville and Kim Jong-Un won't give me their phone numbers.

So, when I was flipping through Vanity Fair, I was excited when I came across this:
You'll have to click the image to see a larger version of it - and it's worth it (though some of you might not like the language). Just two dudes having a little conversation about food. Which is really funny if you read the fake Kim Jong-Un's tweets.

That little fake exchange made me happy! I was already pleasantly surprised by this story of a man who was born in India, managed to wind up far from home, was adopted by Australians, moved there, then decided to go back to his home to find out if  his mother ever looked for him. Seriously, friends, you should read that story.

Now, I just look forward to getting the Daniel Craig interview (because he's my favorite Bond)!

What else could this magazine have in store? I don't know but it's already been fun reading!

Vanity Fair Gets Back on Track

I was quite disappointed in Vanity Fair when I got this in my mailbox last month.
I mean, Jessica Simpson? Her music is not good. Her movies are not good. The only thing she seems to get right is her shoe, handbag and perfume line. Still, the magazine put Jugs McGee on the cover. There were so many other great articles in the magazine. Then there was this one on her. I felt neither sympathetic nor angry when reading it. I just thought I could have made better use of my time watching "Real Housewives of New Jersey" or "I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here."

So, I wondered, how could the magazine redeem itself? Then, I found this in my mailbox.
Now that's a guy who's cover worthy! Johnny Depp! YAY! Can't wait to read the article. If you haven't picked it up yet, you can go here to look at some of the photos.
