Never thought that was a flattering cut. I was more about Col. Wilma Deering.

Thanks for the link. I differ from Mr. Barthel in that I'd rather listen to Jeff Buckley than watch The OC, and I'd rather do either than write about them both. Having said that, I was happy to hear the snippets from the covers that Mr. Barthel adds to his essay. His sadness montage redeems the bong-addled, pretentious rock criticism that you'd expect from someone whose first paragraph contains the line "As my train crossed the Manhattan Bridge, I reached track five on the album." That'll do, sneering hipster. That'll do.

That's the whole point. The costume isn't flattering from the waist down, but Lynda Carter is so hot it doesn't even matter.

Feel free to search YouTube for Lynda Carter and Battle of the Network Stars for more proof.

Here's a taste: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_QbAs...eature=related

Check out the Murderer's Row that ABC had for the female side of their BotNS lineup: Lynda Carter, Farrah Fawcett, Darlene Carr (from Streets of San Francisco), and (the exception that proves the rule) Penny Marshall. Penny's clearly less active now (and could buy and sell the other three several times over).

Here's a Maybelline commercial with Lynda: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RvndF...eature=related (Spree: [over]use of the word "moist")

Not to take anything away from Wonder Woman, but the best part of that may be the narration by Howard Cosell.

On the other hand, I often laugh at the things my non-pretend kindergartener niece says.

They're not pretend girls! They're REAL I tell you!

I still giggle when I think of her frank and earnest revelation about her bathroom difficulties. (I feel duty-bound to reiterate that it was the invitee offering TMI. No pretend daughter of mine would ever say such a thing. Or if she did, I don't think I'd share it here.) I wonder how long is "too long" on the toilet?

No matter how many times I watch this, I never get sick of it.

Once you quit laughing, did you at least tell her (kindly) that if she ate more food with fiber, she wouldn't need to be on the toilet for so long? Poor kid probably lives on macaroni and cheese or pizza and the like.

If you fall in, it's too long.

How many kids in the house? Sometimes, it's the only place you can get some quiet to do a little reading.

Maybe she just needs to start taking long baths with her book.

Depends on the author. Generally, one to two chapters.

3G, you've got to read at least the subject line! Not too many kindergartners need to spend time on the toilet for peace and quiet. And parents rarely let take long baths with books!
