Hey all snarkies wanted to be Twiggy! We painted on little bottom lashes and dreamed of meeting her! All these years later she is still just as fascinating!
The Snarkies grew up watching Soupy everyday. There was no Sesame Street for us! Now you might understand why we all turned out a little snarky! Pookie and White Fang were our favorites.
The most Snarky of American sports cars THE 1960 THECORVETTE STORY
The television show "Route 66" premiered with a story of two young men driving a 1960 Corvette around the US in search of adventure. And while deep see fishing in the Bahamas, Bill Mitchell lands a shark and thinks of the idea for the body shape of the XP-775, the Corvette Shark. The 1960 Cor

We will start this off with the most fabulous vampire of all time (in our snarky-lious opinion)"Drink From Me And Live Forever""Born somewhere in the eastern European state of Kiev in the late 15th century, Armand (at this time called

monastery. He is forcefully taken out of this life of prayer and devotion by
slave traders, who take him to Constantinople an

Finally! We are almost ready to roll! It's me Barbra Seville hee hee. Getting ready to launch this blog. Getting the ladies together and their fingers warmed up to type! We are fed up! We are tired of the political correct-ness and inequalities facing the American woman! Just fed up with the pressure we feel to have perfect homes, perfect children, thin bodies, balanced budgets and yet find fulfil

CNN's Jack Cafferty is one of the few people on that network anymore who speaks his mind, regardless of whom the target is. After two days of coverage about McCain's stupid, low brow commercials whining that Obama is popular, Cafferty went off..."I'd be willing to make you a bet. If you added up all of the people who have attended every political event John McCain has held since the campaign start
When we heard Brokeback Mountain is being mounted as an opera, our reaction from both a gay rights and NY theatregoing standpoint was nothing short of positive. One who doesn't share our enthusiasm, however, is Americans For Truth's Peter LaBarbera:...
Ho-hum. The gossip news these last few days has been boring.First big bore: Another "shocking" ouster on American Idol.The Church Lady was not pleasedCarly Smithson might be the first “American Idol” contestant to be voted off the show for blasphemy.Online chat boards devoted to “American Idol” have been abuzz since Ms. Smithson performed the title song from “Jesus Christ Superstar” — the 1970 rock opera, which many Christians consider offensive — on Tuesday’s episode. Ms. Smithson received the fewest votes of the six remaining contestants following her Tuesday performance. Her elimination was announced on Wednesday night’s episode. The week’s performances were drawn from the works of Andrew Lloyd Webber, who wrote “Jesus Christ Superstar” with Tim Rice. Within ho
Here is Hewitt's measured and sane response on her own site: I've sat by in silence for a long time now about the way women's bodies are constantly scrutinized. To set the record straight, I'm not upset for me, but for all of the girls out there that are struggling with their body image. A size 2 is not fat! Nor will it ever be. And being a size 0 doesn't make you beautiful. What I should be doing is celebrating some of the best days of my life and my engagement to the man of my dreams, instead of having to deal with photographers taking invasive pictures from bad angles. I know what I look like, and so do my friends and family. And like all women out there should, I love my body. To all girls with butts, boobs, hips and a waist, put on a bikini -- put it on and stay strong.

About a week ago, rapper T.I. and his bodyguard were arrested when the bodyguard was caught attempting to purchase machine guns and silencers. The bodyguard admitted to purchasing 26 guns for T.I. and his posse.
It seemed like things couldn't get more outrageous. But now, a blogger from Atlanta named Sandra Rose claims she is being intimidated by T.I.'s people because of recent posts on her blog. Here is what Rose had to say
So, as you saw from my previous post I bought me some al-kee-hawl. I like to have the occasional drink but I'm no connoisseur, and though I hate to admit it... I have a fruit fly problem. Yes, the vurry vurrrrry fine 6 dollah wine I bought was actually for the pests in my house.I'm very hospitable, what can I tell you.BUT I digress.Six dollar wine. Right. I ran into the store to get a few things like fruit (no, not for the fruit flies... I have to draw the line somewhere), milk, stuff to make homemade cinny rolls, and yup, you guessed it 6 dollah muscato. I tried to pick something that both the fruit flies and I would like.I head up to the register and totally like this girl? She was like totally bumming? and was like devastated that I actually would ask her to work? Totally. Like. Oh. Mah. Gah."Do you need my ID?" I asked politely, despite the fact that Little Missy Poopy Pants was put out. She curled her upper lip slightly while flaring one nostril, while giving me the once over,"U
{summary}I know I’ve stated that R has developed a distinct ability to manipulate me over the past couple of weeks, right? Well, it would seem that the kid’s personality has developed right under my nose and today slapped me right in the face (figuratively, of course).
R was Mr. Crankypants for most of today because his naps were all a little short. I dealt with it the best I could and tried to keep him entertained or held him as much as I had an arm available.
Scott had been out in the yard trimming hedges and such. Since he was going to shower anyway, I suggested we take a trip to AC Moore to take a look at their frame sale. I put Rosco into his Jumperoo while I sat at the kitchen table (ten feet away) to have some ice cream. He whined in annoyance and I made some typical “Everything will be okay” commentary. When I looked up at him, he had this expression on his face that I’ve never, ever seen him make before.&nbs
{summary}If you’re the super-observant sort you may notice some posts from early 2006 appear from out of nowhere (see archives in sidebar). As this blog didn’t exist during that time you may be wondering if I’ve travelled back in time - don’t worry, they’re legit. They’re from my other blog which died a painless death in its sleep this past week.
One by one I’ll be transferring over posts about my pregnancy with Rosco and other momma-related stuff...I may even throw in some stuff from as far back as 2004. Enjoy the vintage snark!
{summary}Our t.v. room is being painted and we called in a professional this time rather than muck it up ourselves. If you’ve ever tried sanding a ceilng then you’d understand where the literal expression “pain in the neck” should be applied.
I didn’t want to be present when the house was being filled with dust and paint stripper fumes, so I packed up my young’un and drove to my grandma’s house in Southeastern Virginia. She lives about three hours from me and with my mother. Three hours is just long enough to discourage surprise visits from my mother, but much too far for my very-elderly grandmother to do interstate driving on (she shouldn’t be driving at all, but as long as the state of NC keeps renewing her license, I ain’t saying shit).
Wait, I just remembered something. Let me ask you a question - what time does McDonald’s stop serving breakfast? 10:30, right? Okay, riddle me this -
{summary}I thought I’d share a great pediatric podcast I’ve been listening to lately. I found PediaCast a few weeks ago in the iTunes directory and thought I’d preview it to see if the content was at all informative. I was pleasantly surprised that Dr. Mike is both likeable and smart enough to avoid politics. I’ve listened to most of the archives while walking the neighborhood with Rosco and have gotten some really good information from the infant segments on such things as immunizations, poop, allergies, etc.
So, check it out. The most recent listener question show is particularly good.
