Me need new friends. TRULY I DO.
I have two that usually get me in the most trouble. Lesley and Shelly. Now they will both deny it till death...but yall oughta know by now that I don't make this ish up.
I'm sitting here minding my own business writing, (Fun stuff too. WHEEEE!) and trying to figure out what's wrong with Jabber cause me and Diva weren't able to get our nightly chat on for some reason. (User error I'm sure. ROFL!)
So the phone rings and it's Shelly telling me about Heather Mills doing a flip on "Dancing With the Stars." Which makes me think some things that will certainly have me at the gates of heaven begging for a recount on my votes I'm sure.
I changed the channel to see what she was talking about and yup....Heather Mills did a flip. NO COMMENT! :)
Then, Dionne Warwick sings and I say...Dionne need to go sit down somewhere and just fade away gracefully.
To which Shelly replies: "I wonder if she and Philip Michael Thomas still together?"
Me: ARRRRRRRRUUUUUUUUUU?
Stoopit Imaginary Person: AAARRRRRRUUUUUUUUU?
Jaru: AAAAAARRRRRUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU?
Lucy: AAAAAARRRUUUUUUUUUUUUU?
Me: Shelly...what the hell are you talking bout?
Shelly: You didn't know they were a couple? They been together for a loooooooong time now.
Me: What the hell?
Shelly: Look it up.
Me: (already looking it up) OHMYG! HOW DID I NOT KNOW THIS? WHAT THE HELL? AM I THE ONLY PERSON THAT DIDN'T KNOW? http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=philip+michael+thomas+dionne+warwick&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8
Now Shelly is DYING laughing because I think I said something like...all I can think of is "Boomerang and Eartha Kitt saying..."Maaaaaaarrrrrrrcus! Purrrrrrrrrrr!"
Yall...how does ish like that happen? PHILIP MICHAEL THOMAS AND DIONNE WARWICK!
So then...I go to Wikipedia and read this outloud to Shelly:
In 1994, Thomas signed an agreement with Florida-based Psychic Reader's Network (later known as Traffix, Inc.) to become the spokesman for the Philip Michael Thomas Psychic Connection. He appeared in television spots and claimed to have met the planet's premier psychics through his "world travels". He dressed similarly to his Miami Vice alter ego, even opening the ads with the phrase, "From Miami Vice to world advice!"
Traffix replaced Thomas as spokesman in favor of Miss Cleo. Thomas sued, alleging breach of contract, and won. In 2002, a New York arbitrator awarded Thomas $1.48 million for improper use of his name and likeness, and an additional $780,000 in interest. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philip_Michael_Thomas)
And here is our full circle moment folks...where the title of this post came from as Shelly's throwed off azz says: (IN HIGH PITCHED WHAIL no less...)
"PHILIP MICHAEL THOMAS SUED MS. CLEO?????????????"
And there you have it.
*sigh*
Me need new friends bruh. ME NEED NEW FRIENDS.
