Kudos to Rick Mercer



If you live in Canada, or a Northern State that gets CBC you may have heard of Rick Mercer. Arguably the most well known, and liked Canadian comedian, Mercer has a weekly show, The Mercer Report, which is a mix of comedy, news and politics. I first saw Mercer a few years ago on The Comedy Network on a show called Talking To Americans (all of which is on Youtube). It was hilarious, and at the same time, a bit depressing to see how little most Americans know about the country above.



On this weeks Mercer Report, the openly gay Mercer took on bullying in a rant I wanted to share, kudos Mercer!

Congratulations Mario Cantone!



Although I am sure it was not as over the top as his alter ego Anthony's wedding was in Sex And The City 2 (below), it was great to hear about comedian Mario Cantone's wedding to musical theatre director John Dixon. I love Mario Cantone, I love him as he is one of very few people who can take me to tears of laughter. The ability to bring such joy is something I truly and admire and respect. I have followed the talened comedian, actor and singer since I began FH and was thrilled when Mario did an interview for FH a couple of years ago. Congratulations Mario and John!

Moist:





'Thank you, the word "moist," for being the worst word ever. I think I speak for all Americans when I say that we don't want you as a word anymore. God I hate you.'

Jimmy Fallon



In Jimmy Fallon new book Thank You Notes, he declares the word Moist as the worst word ever. Today, except my love of the Canadian band by that name, as of today, I officially agree with him.



People always say it is the humidity not the heat and I always think 'they're old'. Today, I get it. Rushing to get to brunch this morning I stepped out of the shower, into my clothes and into a moist mess. The humidity was close to 100 and I changed three times before hitting the air conditioning of my car. My wonderful friends thought it smart to eat on the outside patio. I was the lone vote for inside. By the time my steak and eggs arrived they all wanted to move inside. After a few errands and a VERY short run with the dog, I am home. A record three showers and five changes of clothes in the last 8 hours.

Kudos to Seth Meyers



Was away Saturday night but just watched the stellar season finale of SNL. Although Justin Timberlake and Lady Gaga (not to mention Bill Hader) are getting all the attention I have to give it up to Seth Meyers. Meyer's Really segment lambasting Arnold Schwarzenegger featured the cream of the crop of Arnold slams. Kudos!

Kudos to Seth Meyers & Barack Obama



Kudos to Seth Meyers & Barack Obama who both took on Trump last night at The White House Correspondents Dinner with Hilarious results! You can check out the C-Span video's HERE: The red carpet video was especially interesting. Where else would you see Ian Somerhalder, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Newt Gingrich, Joan Rivers & Donna Brazile all in the same room.
