Its a Girl!

My favorite New York Housewife, Bethanny Frankel, had a healthy little girl.  At a light 4 lbs 12 oz*, Bryn will be just as fierce as her mom! Congrats!

*Bryn was born a month early, so shut up to all the haters who speculated she dieted during her pregnancy.

The Real Housewives of DC?

Bravo is allegedly scouting women to be cast for the Real Housewives of DC.  How interesting!  I guess the show would primarily film in Georgetown if they plan on keeping it strictly DC as that's where the money is, but the suburbs in Virginia hold some major money and powerful women. My advice to Bravo: open it up to the entire DMV area, not just DC.

As much as I love the Housewives, I don't want to see a RHofDC because...well I'm not a fan of DC (despite going to school here). The Housewives of location's past are already irritating enough.  Considering that the average bug-eyed sunglass wearing, big purse carrying, Blackberry wielding Washington woman makes me want to trip her since well she's looking at her phone and not the space in front of her, I don't think I can take a season of it, nor am I willing to risk transit delays and closures because of filming. 

Also, what would the thing be for DC? You know, the Orange Country wives hold an orange; Atlanta a peach.  Would DC hold a dollar? A soul?

You can learn from reality TV

I love the Real Housewives of Atlanta, sophisticated hoodrats I say.  The best is Sherree, failed marriage and failed fashion design, but she swears she is on point.  Enjoy:




Now, you may not think so, but "who gone check me boo" (around the 2 minute mark for you lazies/technologically impaired that didn't watch the above) can be applied to really anything, even politics. For example:

Congress:  Representative Joe Wilson, you need to apologize for calling the President a liar
Joe Wilson: No, who gone check me boo?!


State of SC: Please disclose all account information to the Ethics Commission
Mark Sanford:  Sure, but who gone check me boo?!



Pro-Health Care Reform Camp: President Obama, we really need a public option for health care.  Please don't eliminate this from the bill.
President Obama: But I have to be moderate, who gone check me boo?!


Argentine government officials/Argentine public: There will be no cabinet changes following the recent elections
President Christina Fernandez de Kirchner (following her impromptu cabinet change): Por favor, quien gone check me boo?!

As you can see "who gone check me boo" adds sass, but most of all makes you believe your argument is legit when everyone else knows its flawed.
