I thought the skit was funny, and what I was most impressed with is that Alec did not deny his rude, selfish behavior for an instant. It seems he does think they overreacted (I do not think they did - he acted ridiculously childish), but he also clearly realizes that he did cause trouble and he was being foolish. I just can't figure out why celebrities think they're better than everyone else. More famous, yes, but better, no.

This reminds me of Tony Curtis - "I wouldn't be caught dead marrying a woman old enough to be my wife."

No, I would think that was stupid and trashy too. But just like with this, I would be glad if the money helped fund cancer research.

I'm sick of all the "wear pink to bring awareness to breast cancer" nonsense. I think by now everyone's aware that there is breast cancer. We don't need more "Awareness" - we need more money to figure out how to find a cure. $4 bracelets that have got to donate at least $3 toward breast cancer research are a great way. My niece wears a couple of these and I think they're stupid (and I thought it was trashy looking), but I like that the proceeds go toward research, so I'm never going to complain if it actually helps.

If it was a teenager, I'm guessing (s)he was driving home from her high school at that time. I just can't imagine how anyone's feeling right now, including the teenager's parents.

The Spokesman-Review has a little better explanation of the circumstances. I think it's understandable on both sides. And it was only 2 people who were turned away. The rest chose to leave with them, even though they were permitted.

"In general, there’s no dress code for White House tours and the St. Maries Gazette newspaper in the family’s hometown reported today that the family had checked about possible dress codes ahead of time just to make sure.
However, congressional officials say the Baker family was given access to the more prestigious West Wing tour, which does have a dress code prohibiting most casual wear, including jeans, shorts and T-shirts."

Except mosquitoes. Those can still go, right?

I'm with you! Sure, spiders give me the willies. But fruit flies drive me nuts, and I can't just put a cup over them and slip a postcard underneath to let them outside. I was about to catch a spider the other day, who suddenly stopped running from me. I couldn't figure out why he didn't care about me, when he leapt out and captured another (smaller) spider. So I figured, shoot, I'll let this one stay I guess.

I really like this show, but even this gimmick isn't going to make me sign up for Twitter.

No kidding! I just can't believe how old she looks.
