OMG!!!! One more day of W!!!!!!!!!


Well, actually, it would be two and half more months of W, since January 20 will be the official change-over.  I am going crazy and I am not even going to "watch party", as I think I will be too anxious and nervous to even consider it.  I am thinking that with the young, ethnically diverse voters swarming to the polls, B.O. has a great chance.  According to CNN.com, B.O. has potential for 291 electoral votes, with 270 votes needed to win the prize.  
Also, I have discovered a new member to my menagerie of crap television programs.  Bravo is one network that always to possess more credibility (if that's possible for a cable television channel).  However, "The Rachel Zoe Project" caused me to experience some doubt, despite how much I loved watching the show.  Any misconceptions I had about Rachel Zoe were proven to be incorrect.  Zoe seemed to be understanding and passionate about her work.  Also, she displayed impeccable taste and style.  However, she is still an emotional train wreck.  But, the real drama was with her crazy assistants, Brad and Taylor.  Taylor was pretty psycho and Brad was excessively needy and codependent--a very troubling combination.
Now, Bravo seems to have discovered the Rachel Zoe of travel.  Meet this chick, Sara Duffy, an "elite travel" expert, star of the latest attempt to rub in to the rest of us how poor we are in this crappy economy.  "First Class All the Way" chronicles the lives of rich, entitled, demanding people from L.A. with enough Botox and silicon to use as alternative fuel on very extravagant vacations.  Now, what in the hell is "elite" travel.  Naturally, these folks are staying at the Holiday Inn.  They stay in the 6 star hotels in the most exotic locations.  This episode showed these very botoxed and silicon/salined chicks, who had arranged a trip to Paris and Monaco.  The trip included a cooking lesson with a chef from a renowned culinary institute.  They then jet-setted in a helicopter to Monaco, where they attended some exotic car show with an appearance the Prince Himself of Monaco.  Everyone wore their 6-inch stilletto Prada heels, with designer duds.  What creeps me out is that this elite travel expert, to whom we also refer as a "travel consierge", actually hangs out with her clients during these trips to wineries, car shows, and $1000/night luxury hotels.  Now, how is it a "vacation" with some chick that is not well-know hanging out.  It would like me going to the first day of school with my patients-- totally crazy.
