Strong Bones

Sally Field's campaign for peace. Also: Permanently in Iraq. Dobson out of focus. Dandy Dan. Greater Albania. Forty years of good humor. Plus more.
p> RETRO SALLY br> Re: Pia de Solenni's If Mothers Ruled the World : /p> p>With regard to the ridiculous rant from Ms. Field, I'm afraid she is WAY OFF BASE. Having worked in prisons for more than 17 years, I can attest that women fight far more often than men do -- and often over the most trivial matters. br> -- B. Snell /p>

I called Roche today to voice my reaction to Sally Field's encore psychotic break. The last being when she got an Oscar for Norma Rae -- "You like, you reeeely llike me."

The flak-catcher's response was, "Well, she has a right to her opinion..." The other explanation, regarding Sally's Boniva commercials, is "she is an advocate for osteoporosis." I said, "Yeah, and back when she was making Smokey and the Bandit movies with Burt Reynolds she was an advocate for free love and nickel beer -- and doesn't "advocate" mean she is in favor of osteoporosis?"

I suggested if they wanted a woman spouting obscenities and trashing the military effort in Iraq, they could probably buy incoherence cheaper by hiring Cindy Sheehan.

p>And I left them with this thought: What does it profit a woman to have strong bones if she has a lame brain? br> --
