cher and the ball crushers

BrilliantEditor and I were at the mall tonight buying replacement lightbulbs for the wee light that lives next to my bed and thinking about Christmas shopping.

After we'd had some pizza, I decided it was time to get some gum so I'd smell like mint and pizza instead of just pizza. The man behind the register of the gum store was wearing a t-shirt with Cher on it. The new, golden tressed Cher.

BrilliantEditor was most impressed with the t-shirt. He said, "And did you see his t-shirt? Wow."

I highly recommend visiting her website. www.cher.com Be sure that you have your sound turned on.

This is a photo of the t-shirt:

cool t-shirt? what does it all mean?

And here is a screenshot of her highly recommended website:

when you've been around long enough to still try to be this cool, what's left to say?

and now for Cher's backup band...the Ball Crushers!

BrilliantEditor and I were having one of those blissful days when everyone else in the world is stupid; we are superior beings from planet Ithaca. Conversations around us are dull at best; people walking do not see where they are going; the folks who try to give samples of hand creams are called "stink wizards".

Ah yes.

I was pushing things just a little bit further (shocking!) and naming some careers I'd like to try out, businesses I'd like to start. I thought I might start a business of tightly tailored pajamas. Everyone goes for comfort or sexiness. Why not fill the fashion niche and get some pj's and stiletto slippers to bring it all together?

When I told BE about my plan he thought it was great until I explained, "No, no, not personally tailored. Just fitted with creases and things."

BE said, "Oh. You mean ballcrushers."

We agreed that would be a grand name for a company.

We also agreed that "Cher and the Ball Crushers" would be a great name for a band.
