Food For Thought

Just a quick note. I've been catching up on pop-culture current affairs this morning and I read that Kirstie Alley appeared on Oprah in a bikini to show how much weight she's lost.

Let's forget about the fact that, before she shilled for Jenny Craig, Alley's message was "I'm fat and I'm happy with it" (she even starred in the aptly-named 'Fat Actress' on Showtime, and was quoted saying she'd rather be 'a fat-ass mom' than 'a Beverly Hills skinny ass bitch').

Let's forget that, it's not as important as her Oprah appearance -- available on YouTube -- or, rather, not as important as her theme song during her Oprah appearance.

It was "Brick House" by The Commodores. Could there be a funnier song to play for someone who's supposedly lost weight? Isn't that a bit like playing Queen's 'Champions' in a losing locker room?
