Falling Leif or Why Sweet Pea Isn't Going Into Show Biz

Conan was great - very interesting day.  I will post details later.  There's just too much to say about the whole thing.

167771089_1 I wasn't planning on posting at all tonight, but I just ran across this little item about one of my childhood crushes.  Women of a certain age will definitely recognize this magazine and there's young Leif hugging an adorable stuffed animal.  I think that's Shawn Cassidy next to him.

Things apparently haven't been going so well for Leif.  Repeat drug charges and it looks like some years using them have really taken a toll.  He's looking a little worse for the wear. 




It actually is sad how many child stars end up unable to handle being adults.  As gorgeous and talented and brillant as Sweet Pea is, I think we'll just have her live a normal life until she gets old enough to handle fame and fortune.

No raves for Julia

I  am not a huge Julia Roberts fan or anything, but I like the way she stays under the radar.  She isn't one of those celebrities who say they want to be left alone, yet do things that bring out the paparazzi in droves.  So I feel badly for her that she seems to be getting early slams on her Broadway debut.

CNN.com - Julia draws bad reviews for B'way debut - Apr 20, 2006.

Luckily, I won't lose any sleep over it since I'm already an insomniac.
