Dave Navarro recently confessed that he's had experiences with other dudes, but doesn't consider himself gay at all. He said: "I've come to realize through my experimentation over the years that I'm not gay, nor am I bisexual. I've never been aroused by a man, but I've been in situations where I could potentially be aroused." He did say that if he had to pick a man he was attracted to, it'd be Johnny Depp.

With respect to the picture only, back in the day, Dave would have definitely been my kind of guy.

at the time my kids were babies, they faced forward after 17 pounds, which was about 4 months for ds and 11 months for dd. after weighing 8 pounds 8 ounces at birth, dd stayed very petite and only doubled her birthweight at 16 months. she walked at 9 months and weighed about 16 pounds. since she was bald, people thought she was a 5 or 6-month old walking! one time, she put a 20 pound bag of cat food on the bottom of the grocery cart. it weighed more than she did! i think the baby was legal carseat-wise, but the bright son was a problem.

The picture is very small, but with as much as that baby is slumped over, it appears the straps are not nearly tight enough. If the straps aren't tight the baby will get severe whiplash, or even worse fly right out of the seat in an accident. The general rule these days is rear facing until a year old. Many break that rule when they baby reaches a certain weight, but the "experts" say it isn't about size, but more about the strength of babies neck and ability to withstand whiplash. My DD was rear facing past 18 months as I felt it was safest and those little mirrors let me see her every move. Britney is certainly not a model for successful young parenting! Sunscreen. Flying rocks. Have you ever been hit by a rock flying in your window? I have and it hurts.

The "real" deal has a lot to do with the length of the baby's legs. If the baby's feet are sticking out, then (even if the baby is less than 20 lbs) the seat should be put forward. Otherwise the legs are more likely to break in an accident.

I loved "the ladies" on The View yesterday going on and on about Britney and her baby even though they admitted they didn't know what the rule was (re: 20 lbs/1 yr.). Did it mean when the baby weighed 20 lbs and was a year old, or that the baby was 20 lbs. OR one year old? They didn't know--Meredith Viera, whom people purport is the serious one on the show said so--but they didn't care either. They kept going on and on about it and Mrs. Jones-Reynolds, Esq. even deferred to Mrs. Hasselbeck as an "expert" on the situation! That was the biggest laugh-fest for me: Elisabeth Hasselbeck, whose on-air confessions about her parenting skills make Britney's foibles look moderate at best, gets to stand in judgement of Mrs. Spears-Federline! It's a topsy-turvey world we live in.

It's supposed to be "and". Welcome back Tish -- while I rarely see the view I do enjoy your reviews!

I don't know whether anyone else has been following the Paris Hilton/Lindsay Lohan hatefest that's been going on recently--and who can pick a side, really? Don't you just want a caged fight to the death?--but it got even better last night....To say Paris Hilton and ne'er-do-well pal Brandon Davis hate Lindsay Lohan is one of the great Hollywood understatements of 2006. Last night, as the pair club-hopped in LA, Davis unleashed a filthy torrent as Paris laughed with approval. Davis makes numerous sexual and hygenic comments, the likes of which you probably have never heard. Davis, best known for his drunk driving arrest, at one point hurls a racial invective toward Lindsay's former boyfriend, Wilmer Valderrama, asking, "Is he in a mariachi band?" The grandson of the late billionaire Marvin Davis at one point says of Lohan: "I think she's worth about seven million (dollars), which means she's really poor. It's disgusting. She lives in a motel." As for everything else Davis said, TMZ cannot print it; we lost count of the number of bleeps. [...] I'll confess I wish I were as poor as Ms. Lohan. You can catch the video here. And expect retribution soon from Ms. Lohan, who will undoubtedly offer her opinion of Ms. Hilton if she ever leaves the bathroom of whichever club she attends on a given night.

It makes me laugh that Viera, soccer-mom extraordinaire, deferred to Hasselbeck.

Personally I don't see how they can say a baby has to be 20 pounds AND a year old before they are front facing. My landlords' granddaughter was 11 pounds, 8 ounces at birth. [I'll add here that her nickname, which she has had from birth, is Chunk since her sister who is 4 years older than her weighed 5 pounds, 3 ounces. At 20 months and 7 years, the "baby weighs more than the big sis, and is almost as tall as her." She was front facing when she was around 6 months because she was so dang tall and huge she couldn't fit. They can recommend 1 year and 20 pounds, but I think it's basically on a case by case scenario.

I never understood the weight rule, especially for older children and booster seats and seat belts. It should be dependent on height.

I think they should so case by case as well. As for the Lohan thing I hope she is mature enough not to respond but I am sure she won't be ;)

Sad news. It seems Sir Paul and Heather are divorcing http://www.gigwise.com/news.asp?contentid=17097 That article is speculating but ABC 7 has already promoted this news in the current news hour.

Hmm, well I'm only an entire archive late .. oh well. News says they are splitting up after 4 years of marriage, but Sir Paul says don't believe any vicious rumors. They partly blame THE MEDIA, found it increasingly difficult to maintain a normal relationship. No prenup. Rumors that his children don't approve. Sir Paul says Heather didn't marry him for money; almost everything I've read is 100$ untrue.
