There's a slight resemblance between Mark Daley and Kelsey Grammer.

The trailer for Mel Gibson's new Jodi Foster-directed film, The Beaver, has been released and....wouldn't ya know it? The internets have gone and re-edited it! Hilarious, but not for those who might be offended by Mr Gibson's language and definitely not safe for work: youtube

Bea Arthur Was a Truck-Driving Marine link
While she strangely denied serving in the armed forces, military records show that the actress Bea Arthur spent 30 months in the Marine Corps, where she was one of the first members of the Women’s Reserve and spent time as a typist and a truck driver. The "Maude" and "The Golden Girls" star, who died last year at age 86, enlisted in early-1943 when she was 21 (and known as Bernice Frankel). In a February 1943 letter included in her Marine personnel file, Arthur gave military officials a brief account of her prior employment as a food analyst at a Maryland packing plant, a hospital lab technician, and an office worker at a New York loan company. Arthur was due to start a new job, but she “heard last week that enlistments for women in the Marines were open, so decided the only thing to do was to join.” While she hoped for an assignment in ground aviation, Arthur noted that she was “willing to get in now and do whatever is desired of me until such time as ground schools are organized.” She added, “As far as hobbies are concerned, I’ve dabbled in music and dramatics.” As part of the enlistment process, Arthur underwent interviews that resulted in the production of “personality appraisal” sheets. One such analysis described her conversation as “Argumentative” and her attitude and manner as “Over aggressive.” In a handwritten note, the Marine interviewer remarked, “Officious--but probably a good worker--if she has her own way!”

I saw that story earlier, Tish, it is strange. Why deny serving in the US military during WWII?

Because part of the information they got when they got her Marine records was that she had one misconduct thing against her and it was because she had a venereal disease that required treatment and 5 days of recovery

I thought they said that was from her husband? I'd have thought she'd kill him with her bare hands and be proud of it LOL.

Oh, I don't know that part. How do we know that? I just reread the smoking gun piece, and it seems that she was incapacitated for 5 weeks, not 5 days. That's a long time.

If it walks like a duck..... Though she recently turned 18, Miley Cyrus isn't exactly acting like an adult. In a video obtained by TMZ, the "Forgiveness and Love" singer is seen apparently smoking out of a bong during a party at her Los Angeles-area home on Nov. 28. "OK, I'm about to lose it now," Cyrus says after taking her first hit. "I'm having a little bit of a trip right now." According to TMZ sources, the smoke inside the bong is a natural -- and legal -- herb called salvia, which has psychedelic qualities. (Possession of salvia is legal in California.) With Bush music blaring in the background, the "Last Song" actress then mistakenly identifies one of the party's guests as her boyfriend, Liam Hemsworth. "Oh my God! He looks so much like him! He looks so much like Liam," Cyrus giggles. Unable to convince her pal, she asks, "Is that me tripping? He doesn't look like Liam at all? Dude, that looks just like Liam!" The video was likely copied or stolen from Cyrus' friend's camera, TMZ adds. http://www.tmz.com/2010/12/10/miley-cyrus-video-bong-hit-smoking-salvia-herb-pyschedelic-birthday-party-hannah-montana/

Never heard of it. We just found out Ms Sweetpea's 15 year old niece has been using pot for awhile. I wonder if she's tried the salvia.

another thing is called Serenity. it's essentially incense and it legal. the kids were using it cause it didn't show up on drug tests. a guy here just came up with one and we are using it at our center. another thing they are doing is putting salt in those pump bottles of hand sanitizer. it causes the alcohol to separate and come to the top, then they drink it. we have to lock out sanitizers in our drawers.

Dr Phil did a show on Salvia (or maybe it was The Doctors..) and definitely it is something to worry about.

Salvia... Serenity... What happened to the good old days when we just smoked pot, got the munchies and then slept for 10 hours?
