A Lady's Ruminations

I'm also a usually quiet, reserved Lady, who enjoys books, tea, baking, and movies! I spend most of my time reading one of my favorite books or wishing I was reading my favorite books. My Grand Passion is history, particularly the Regency Period in England, when Jane Austen wrote, Lord Nelson defeated the French Fleet at Trafalgar, the Duke of Wellington defeated Napoleon, and men were Gentlemen and women Ladies. I cherish the thought of being a Lady and love manners, being proper, and having proper tea. My favorite tea is Twinings, especially Earl Grey or Prince of Wales. My specialty to make is Scones with Devon Cream. I am a Catholic and a Conservative.

CNN's Boob Tube

The other day CNN's Jonathan Klein called Fox News' coverage "meaningless nonsense."

Now, the New York Post's Page Six has a great little tidbit on CNN.

August 26, 2005 -- CNN president Jon Klein should watch his own network before he complains to the New York Times about Fox News Channel being "meaningless nonsense." On Monday — the day before Klein was quoted in the Times — CNN's Larry King (above) interviewed busty Pamela Anderson. King asked Anderson a whopping 13 questions about her breasts, including, "What size [are your breasts]?" and, "They expand on camera?" A Fox insider snickered, "King only got 926,000 viewers, proving that nothing on CNN can get a rating — news or trash. Maybe if she took her top off, they would have had higher ratings." A rep for CNN said: "Jon believes that Larry has earned the right to pick his own topics."
