Single Ladies

I just cannot let this pass:


This was a recent SNL skit posted by a friend in Facebook (thanks, Imee). It gave my heart its best laugh today. LOL. Justin was so game! :)

Tina in Action

I didn't expect to post as early as now but it only took one look at this vid and I knew I just had to put it in this blog.

Remember "Woman of Substance: Tina Fey"? Here she is in action, as Sarah Palin (Amy Poehler as Katie Couric also does a very good job):

Ah, it's good to have a good laugh this early in the day. :)

Apologies for the extra stuff on the embedded vid. It's the price I have to pay for going after NBC's original vid (best quality) over a YouTube vid.

Woman of Substance: Tina Fey

"I thank my parents for somehow raising me to have confidence that is disproportionate with my looks and abilities. Well done. That is what all parents should do."

- Tina Fey, Winner: 2008 Emmy for Outstanding Writer and Outstanding Actress, 30 Rock

What a way to thank your parents at a moment of tremendous success. Some awardees don't even bother to remember them. But Tina Fey remembered, and delivered the gratitude like a true winner - savvy, witty, cool.

Haven't really known her long. Happened to hear about her in a feature somewhere sometime ago but it was the much-awaited Sarah Palin impersonation at Saturday Night Live (SNL) that prompted me to finally google Tina Fey. Her bio is pretty impressive. Who wouldn't take a bow at the first woman to become SNL's headwriter? Who went on to create her own show, write for it and star in it?

Fey truly has it. Looks. Smarts. Wit. Talent.

Geez, some people have all the good stuff. And some, like Fey, deserve every bit. ;)
