FRAGMENTIA 13: Bite-sized slices of life

DROP ME BABY ONE MORE TIME
And the Perfect Parenting Prize goes to... Britney Spears, who apparently learned her parental safety skills from another former pop star, Michael "Wacko Jacko" Jackson. She just can't seem to get a handle on little Sean, nearly dropping him right in front of the press. Maybe she needs to read the label and realize that it's cooking oil and not baby oil she's using on him.

WHAT WEBSTER WON'T TELL YOU
Thongtanel (singular noun): A groove down the middle of a baby's head, caused by its mother's frequent wearing of thong undies during her pregnancy. See also: Britney Spears

HOW HAVE WE SURVIVED WITHOUT IT?
Keeping an eye on your caffeine intake? Worry no longer - just slip your dipstick into the cup. Warning: Coffee may be very HOT.

MINE'S BIGGER 'N YOURS
Apparently even the speed limits are bigger in Texas. Let's see Sammy Hagar find a word to rhyme with "80!" "I can't drive 80, I'd rather live in Haiti..."

  • You know what, I feel bad for Britney. I mean, if I had had the press following my every move when my little one was an infant, I'm sure I would have been declared a bad father.

    You want to make them a news item, fine, but leave their parenting skills out of it.

  • the very fact she hooked up with K-Fed says she's a ditz... she hooked up with him while his other girlfriend was knocked up with one of his kids... that opens her up to all kinds of criticism... and she needs to learn how to deal with one child before having another... oops! too late...

    I do feel for celebs like Britney (and Sir Paul), but you have to understand, in their chosen fields they had to work very hard to get everyone to notice them and become rich and famous... you can't just suddenly turn and say "Why doesn't everyone leave me alone?" when you get tired of fame... fame doesn't happen overnight, nor do you regain your anonymity overnight... goes with the job, unfortunately...

  • You got that right, bogs. Be careful what you wish for, you just might get it.

  • A friend of mine worked for starchunks for 11 years and she told me that espresso and latte's are a scam....she says that you can get an equally strong cup of JOE just by adding more coffee grounds to your ordinary coffee maker...The results are the same as a $4.00 triple.........

  • i am glad cameras weren't following me around when i was a young, first-time mother. but i will admit, BS seems rather more inept than even the most immature and inexperienced of moms. (though that slipping on her shoes and jeans accident seems somewhat normal - now the driving with baby in lap - geesh!) if she could keep out of the spotlight for bit, she might just get the hang of it (or hire a nanny,for crying out loud - she should have the dough).

  • I read Britney had a drink in one hand and the baby in the other... come on!!!

  • I know that constant scrutiny comes with the business, but limit the scope. You want to publish that she has an eating disorder because she picks up a tub of Ben & Jerry at the 7-11, go for it! Just leave her parenting abilities out of the press.
