Don’t over-think it, rock it old school, Torn Slatterns and Nugget Ranchers

Out of control
You can tell its fashion week in New York; actor Christian Bale was caught on tape screaming obscenities at Ralph Lauren.

Scary
The top movie this weekend was “Friday the 13th” I tell you I was horrified, I screamed, I was terrified. But that’s because I went into “Confessions of a Shopaholic” by mistake.

Abroad
Hillary Clinton is on her first trip abroad as Secretary of State. As a result, Bill Clinton is on his first trip on a broad since Hillary became Secretary of State

We kid the King
Can you believe all the specials on Abraham Lincoln to mark his 200th birthday? There is a special on his inauguration, his speech at Gettysburg, and they are replaying Lincoln’s first interview with Larry King.

My mistake
I’m learning a lot about Abraham Lincoln on his 200th birthday. Lincoln was depressed, disheveled, he hated his job, his beard and hair were un-kept . . . no, I’m sorry, that’s Joaquin Phoenix.

Baseball been berry, berry good
Spring training has begun. There is nothing like the sound of the crack of bat, the smack of the ball hitting the mitt, the smell of fresh mown grass, the pop of the plunger coming out of the syringe.

Oh the horror
It was horrifying and scary in Los Angeles. Not because of the storm, the wind blew Kirsty Alley’s mu’mu’ over her head. .

Gross
Former bitter rivals Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O’Neal had a love-fest this All Star weekend winning co-MVPs and endlessly complimenting each other. How mushy was it? These two make Siegfried and Roy look like Bill and Hillary.

How hard did it rain?
It rained so hard in Sacramento, the State panel convened to investigate water rationing in California? They nearly drowned.

We need more rain like the Jonas Brothers need more publicity.

Trouble now
After admitting to steroid use there is more trouble ahead for Alex Rodriguez. Today Madonna just found out what his pet name for her really meant when he called her the ol’ slump buster.

Say it ain’t so, Stump
Last week a Sussex spaniel named Stump won the Westminster Dog Show. Stump won at the age of 10, 70 in dog years. How could an older dog perform so well so late in his career? One word: steroids. Yes, I hate to say it: Stump was gooned-up on the juice.
