Rosie’s New Blog
Whenever I come across a celebrity blog nowadays I figure it's probably fake. So looking at the new blog of Rosie O'Donnell, I thought it had to be a phony. Especially given how bizarre it is. It's almost entirely written in non-rhyming verse. A lot of it I can't even understand. But Defamer points out that it's linked to from the homepage of Rosie's official site, which is pretty good evidence that it's real.
Listed in chronological order. Newest comments at the end.

Umm, silly question really, but who the f*#k would even want to read Rosie O'Donnell's blog in the first place????

When I saw her links, and one was to "BUSH FLASH" I just shuddered and clicked on that little x in the top right corner.
I'm too scared to look and discover whether it's George W. or HER at the other end.

I think my eyes have fallen out.
Hairy, it's near Glasgow.
Hmm, O'Donnell or Glasgow....
Which is the lesser of the two evils?

I've never been to Glasgow, but I spent a week in O'Donnell...

I'm sorry. That was uncalled for... BRINGG "Hairy could you do some more dirty Rosie puns?" Okay, now that it's been called for.

I sat on the can too long this morning... now I have a ring around the rosie
Posted by Hairy Houdini on Wed Mar 09, 2005 at 08:15 AM
That's not a ring, that's dust pulled in by her gravitaional field. It just LOOKS like a ring.
Spent a week in O'Donnel? Holy hell, how did you find your way out? Breadcrumbs?

cripes... having way too much time on my hands, I went so far into Rosie's blog, that I nearly registered to make comments. I wanted to tell her about this thread, but I chickened out.

When I got to the Terms of Service part of the registration, I got a creepy feeling that they were gonna sell my name to lists I don't want to be on...

actually, I could tolerate Rosie in the first few weeks of her show some years back, cuz she had on lots of Where-are-they-now stars of old TV sitcoms...

After she ran out of puffy ex kid stars, she switched to lengthy exchanges with Elmo, the Muppet. I was weaned on Ed Sullivan and Topo Gigio, so it didn't work for me.

"Eh, Mista Eddie- That Rosie- she's a one hot tomato, no?" "Tow-pow, you have no idea, my mousy confidente'. She'll has a really big shoe." "That's-a cuz she's bowls, Eddie."

please escusa my Topo typos, Eddie

At least she admits to removing each post that disagrees with her sensitive, orchid-like nature.

I still havn't figured out exactly what she's famous for. Her blog's pretty boring and she seems to have very little to say.

This might seem like a stupid question to ask, but just because the blog links to Rosie's official site, how does that prove it's real? I admit that I don't know how the blogger website works, but on other internet based journals I know that you can link to anything as "your" webpage...you can insert any URL into the box labeled, "My Website." So does blogger work differently than that?

Got to her official website. You'll see the difference between what you mean and what's on the screen there.
Posted by Rod in the land of smarties. on Wed Mar 09, 2005 at 08:15 PM
Rod, thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I now understand what you mean. I guess if a link to the blog itself is embedded on her official site, it's gotta be real, right? Unless there's some hacker at work trying to be funny, and nobody from her camp has picked up on it yet.
