Jude's Thursday Dish #48 (REALLY cold leftovers)

I don't think I've ever been 2 days late on the Dish. But, we had a terrible deadline week, so I'm now able to breathe and take a moment to do something else. I only have time for one quick Dish item, because we're getting ready to do a bunch of house stuff while we listen to conference.


This Roman Polanski thing makes me sick. I think all of us in the real world like to believe that celebrities really aren't that different than us. They just have fame and money. But when something like this comes up, once again, I'm totally reminded how amoral Hollywood can be. Defending a child molester/rapist by signing a petition? Shame on all those who support him. Chris Rock said it best on his interview with Jay Leno (no, I'm still banning the show, but I read this):

"This Polanski thing got me, man," Rock said. "What the hell? People are defending Roman Polanski 'cause he made some good movies?"

"Yeah, I don't get it," Leno added, before Rock continued on.

"Are you kidding me? He made good movies 30 years ago, Jay. Come on! Even Johnnie Cochran don't have the nerve to go, 'Well, did you see O.J. play against New England?' "


That's all I got -- have a great weekend!
