where are they now???

so i posted only once before for my 'where are they now???' segment but i have a long list of stars who fall into this category from my childhood. therefore, i will begin to make this a much more regular occurrence (especially since i am stuck on bored right now at work).

next up: the robot from small wonder aka tiffany brissette:

then:


birth name: tiffany michelle brissette

tiffany began her 'career' at the very young age of 2 years old. her mother entered her in many pageants and talent competitions during her young life. that led to television voice-over work and many commercial appearances which included, 'care bears', 'florida orange juice', 'ibm', 'jell-o puddin' pops' appearing with bill cosby) and many others.

tiffany was given a career boost after appearing in 'a perfect day for banana fish' with bob hope, and was highly encouraged by her peers to pursue television as a career. her biggest success she shared, was the role as the child robot 'v.i.c.i.' on fox's 1980's successful show, 'small wonder' (1985) which had a popular run from 1985-89. she beat out candance cameron and heather o'rourke for the role.

after 'small wonder' ended, she made various television appearances and was even a guest on the 'the 700 club' in 1991 at the age of 17. tiffany later received her bachelor's degree in psychology from westmont college in santa barbara california. she has not returned to television in almost ten years.

more recently, on march 2, 1997, she participated in the los angeles marathon, finishing in 4:33:06. she placed 921st among 5,312 females, and 101st out of 545 in her age class. she placed 5,110th in an overall field of 15,899 entrants.

as of may, 2002 she was working as a nanny in boulder, colorado but has since become heavily involved with children and young adults as a counselor in san diego.

misc: horseback riding is one of her favorite hobbies.

now:

d.b. of the week

rikki rockett (wtf kind of name is that anyway???), the drummer for poison, was arrested at lax on a rape warrant issued from mississippi. rikki was performing with the group in new zealand and was just getting off a flight when police swooped in. 46-year-old rikki was arrested on monday, taken to jail, booked and it looks like he has been released since then.

prior to starting poison with bret michael's in the 80s, rikki worked as a hairdresser, lifeguard, dishwasher, emergency medical technician and a suit salesman.

really, a suit salesman can't get laid??? go on... and a rape charge in mississippi? if convicted, he's totally going to get the death penalty. they are hardcore down there!!!

way to go d.b....

HAPPY EASTER!!!

how peeps make a living the other 364 days of the year:

the spears sisters at it again!!!

now many of you may have noticed that i haven't blogged about brit brit in a while. i thought it was time to steer away from all of that predictable drama and focus on some other happenings in the world.

that plan of action was going great until this video clip surfaced featuring jamie-lynn and brit brit together. i just had to post it, it was too good to let it slip by...

one voice...

a fierce hot tranny mess...

for those who aren't fierce and aren't in the know that i love project runway, let me catch you tranny's up:



now that is a hot mess!

look what i found!

it's eliot spitzer and his madame 'kristen':

she's so cheap she can't even afford a second wheel...guess she was only a 1-diamond on the 7-diamond scale...

douche bag of the week

i know d.b. of the week is supposed to be on friday...

and i know i haven't done d.b. of the week in a while...

but this guy just couldn't wait...

and now an excerpt from his resignation:

i go forward with the belief, as others have said, that as human beings our greatest glory consists not in never falling but in rising every time we fall.

i wonder if that was what the prostitute was thinking every time she fell on your schlong???

p.s. i hate to fly - can i just borrow your ears and use them as wings??? i bet your wife wouldn't even notice they're gone given how little time you spend at home and how loaded she looks...

i <3 betty white

i will marry betty white before everything is said and done:

drug mule? pat o'brien? briefcase full of cocaine? i love this woman.

they're baaaaaaaaack...

movie meme

because julie is a genius and i like to copy geniuses...

here are the meme rules:

1. pick 10 of your favorite movies.

2. go to imdb and find a quote from each movie.

3. post them here for everyone to guess.

4. strike it out when someone guesses correctly, and put who guessed it and the movie.

5. GUESSERS: NO GOOGLING/using imdb search functions.

6. one movie guess per blogger. give people a chance to guess before you steal all of the awesome!

7. put your guesses in the comments. that way if i leave my desk for a little bit i have a record!

and now for the quotes:

1. there's not a day goes by i don't feel regret. not because i'm in here, or because you think i should. i look back on the way i was then: a young, stupid kid who committed that terrible crime. i want to talk to him. i want to try and talk some sense to him, tell him the way things are. but i can't. that kid's long gone and this old man is all that's left. i got to live with that. rehabilitated? it's just a bullshit word. so you go on and stamp your form, sonny, and stop wasting my time. because to tell you the truth, i don't give a shit. you are correct justin - shawshank redemption

2. listen. since i've met you i've nearly been incinerated, drowned, shot at, and chopped into fish bait. we're caught in the middle of something sinister here, my guess is dad found out more than he was looking for and until i'm sure, i'm going to continue to do things the way i think they should be done. indiana jones & the last crusade - well done mike!

3. we don't have none of this stuff in the boy's room! wait a minute! we don't got none of this...we don't got doors on the stalls in the boy's room, we don't have, what is this? what's this? we don't have a candy machine in the boy's room!

4. you really don't remember, do you? we didn't pick you. you picked us. you volunteered. right here. right here, even after you were warned. good job honey - bourne ultimatum is right!

5. ladies and gentlemen, you all have one thing in common: you're all being blackmailed. for some considerable time, all of you have been paying what you can afford, and in some cases MORE than you can afford, to someone who threatens to expose you. and NONE of you know WHO's blackmailing you. do you? clue is correct karen.

6. now the snarfblatt dates back to prehysterical times when humans used to sit around and stare at each other all day. got very boring. so they invented this snarfblatt to make fine music. well done snappy - the little mermaid.

7. who came up with this ridiculous concept anyway? resolve your entire life in one bold stroke? what if i fail? and i will. i'll fail. i'm telling you. i always fail. then my whole life will be a complete failure.

8. did anyone ever tell you, you look like a penis with that little hat on? julie is definitely in a league of her own...

9. if only you knew how mean she really is...you'd know that i'm not allowed to wear hoop earrings, right? yeah! two years ago she told me hoops earrings were *her* thing and i wasn't allowed to wear them anymore. and then for hannakuh my parents got this pair of really expensive white gold hoops and i had to pretend like i didn't even like them and...it was so sad. and you know she cheats on aaron? yes, every thursday he thinks she's doing SAT prep but really she's hooking up with shane oman in the projection room above the auditorium! i never told anybody that because i am *such* a good friend! mean girls is correct - nice one fort knocks!

10. that's right. when i was your age, television was called books. and this is a special book. it was the book my father used to read to me when i was sick, and i used to read it to your father. and today i'm gonna read it to you. woo hoo yael - princess bride is right!
