Berkeley, California
Well, it’s been a heck of a week. First Viola left and went back to the sports arena and in only 4 days that awful mold is back in the shower. Then I got my MasterCard bill and my Camp Casey trip charges are not only still there but overdue! Cindy promised us George Soros was picking up the tab but evidently not mine. I was shoulder to shoulder with Our Lady Of Perpetual Peace Sheehan the whole time and he buys her an Escalade and I can’t even get my travel expenses covered. Bastard.
At least the week ended on a high note as I was invited to attend a special screening of Cindy’s TV pilot “Jihad Mom”. The stars were all there: Michael Moore, Alec Baldwin, Susan Sarandon, Tim Robbins, Bill Maher, and many others but none eclipsed Cindy. She was absolutely glamorous in her low-cut Donna Karen that provocatively accentuated her spectacular new cleavage.
Al Franken was doing a live remote Air America broadcast with an audience of his local listeners. I’ve never heard six people make so much noise and their enthusiasm energized the crowd. Later, Al took a collection for the New York Boys and Girls Club and we were only too glad to give.
The pilot was VERY funny and Cindy’s catch phrase “you hedge like a Bush!” provoked belly laughs every time she said it. The dramatic parts showed great sensitivity and nicely counterbalanced the humor. The scene where Cindy says goodbye to the suicide bomber was especially poignant as was the scene where she weeps over his recovered nipple.
I think the show is going to be a hit, especially in Iran where they really enjoy good TV.
More later.
