I won&#8217;t guarantee that it will be on topic at all, but Ma, you will have something to read.<\/p>\n<p>You know, actually, i&#8217;m more interested in the show he saw that little tidbit on. VH1 Pop Culture?? sweet!! i&#8217;m a sucker for all those celebrity\/pop culture profile shows. VH1 has running those &#8220;I Love the 80s&#8221; shows quite frequently in the past couple weeks or so, and everytime the TV is on and one of those shows is on, that&#8217;s where the channel clicker stops. It&#8217;s a veritable parade of B-list celebrities and pseudo-celebrities. Minor characters on hit and not-really-hit shows appear and wax eloquent (or not-so-eloquent) about Tiffany vs. Debbie, Michael Jackson, Lisa Lisa and the Cult Jam, etc. Geez! Anyone can do that!! I can do that, for crying out loud! Then again, I don&#8217;t think i could stomach how poorly those things are edited, and how anything I&#8217;d say would be reduced to its most ridiculous and stupid sounding part. (and boy, would it be easy to get stuff like that from me!)<\/p>\n<p>Radar Magazine was right. We really are a B-list nation!!<\/p>\n<p>So along the lines of celeb gossip and pop culture cheese, i&#8217;ve been reading a lot of semi-trashy sites, on top of watching trashy pop culture profiles and shows. Here&#8217;s my list of trashy\/fun bookmarks, for your persuing pleasure.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.radarmagazine.com\/\" class=\"extlink\">Radar Magazine<\/a> Radar, my new favorite magazine.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gawker.com\/\" class=\"extlink\">Gawker.com<\/a> NYC based gossip log featuring the exploits of celebs (all different kinds) in the Big Apple.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.eonline.com\/\" title=\"E!
