Tirades

It's great to start the day off with a good laugh.

So last night I watched my first episode this season of America's Next Top Model. Hey, it's not my fault that it conflicts with Lost. And that last week I watched Smallville. (What's with Wednesday scheduling anyway? It's the most packed night of the week for me!)

I had read online last week about Tyra Banks's huge explosion at one of the models sent home, but reading it did not do it justice. My jaw dropped as I watched that scene in the previouslies. It was crazy. You have to watch it. I think it's online. If you want to know where, ask me and I'll find you the link. The actual episode wasn't bad. I was rooting for Kahlen based on the show's website, and after the ordeal she went through, I'm really glad she made it out okay.

But the tirade... that was stunning. Or should I use Simon Cowell's ambiguous "astonishing"?

So the good laugh...

This morning I was listening to a morning show on my drive down to school. I was flipping channels looking for music, but there wasn't any. All talk or commercials. But as I flipped, I heard Tyra Banks's infamous ranting... "We were all rooting for you!"

I stopped channel surfing immediately.

They played her whole outburst. And then having derived so much pleasure from hearing her madness, they played it again.

Then one of the hosts said it made her feel better to hear it. So they played it again.

And then they played it again.

It was just so bizarre and so strange and so hilarious that I was literally laughing aloud driving to school. I think I got as much pleasure out of it as they did. :)
