This is a hilarious must-read by one Jeff Houck, who was there.

Brilliant, Jenise -- thanks for posting. :D

You even improved my vocabulary with "craptacular". :)

Wow. So you could stand in one place and watch Catherine Zeta-Jones, Paula Deen, and the Keebler Elf all walk down a red carpet? I guess we've gotten to the point where we really don't need psychedelic drugs anymore.

Great read! Thanks, Jenise.

Number of times verbal allusions to sexual congress were made during awards banter by male presenters paired with Rachael Ray: 0


That's really quite surprising given that this is the only worthwhile thing about her.

Cynthia, I don't know--but with apologies to all the other Jeff Houcks in the world, I hope so. :)

Bob R--you and me both.

Stuart--shouldn't the word 'allegedly' be in that sentence? I mean, we really don't KNOW, or do we?

I have faith that I can figure out a way to keep her from talking. Robin will concur.

There's a "yummo!" joke in here somewhere.

The only good thing about them is the material they provide for comedy like this.
