THIS is news?

Posted by pittgirl on 30 Dec 2005 | Tagged as: Uncategorized

Finally got three minutes away from the neverending PittGirl Family Christmas of Food, Fun, and Friends to check out the local headlines when I saw this:

This is news, PittGirl? I asked myself.
Surely, when I click on this here link, I’m going to hear about how TODAY, Lynndie England burned 99 percent of her body in [...]

What they’re really thinking: late edition

Posted by pittgirl on 27 Dec 2005 | Tagged as: Uncategorized

I know it is late in the week for the “What the Steelers are really thinking” entry.
Good food, family, and fun are just sucking up my time.
Regardless, you know this Cleveland fan lived out a lot of guys’ dream … playing with the Steelers.

And you just know Harrison had a blast playing the hero.

“Pfft!”

In honor of the holidays (!), posting will be light.
PittGirl firmly believes that you should use your fifteen minutes wisely.
How sad for this Burgher that he chose to use one of them basically looking like he’s making a less than savory sound.

Yes, I’m 12. But come on. It totally looks like that’s what he’s doing. [...]

Merry Christmas, or Festivus, or Chrismukkah, or whatever it is you choose to celebrate this time of year.

Remember “Flip-Flop Kerry”?
Have you met “Election Year Rick“?

Benny has permission to call PittGirl

Posted by pittgirl on 22 Dec 2005 | Tagged as: Uncategorized

On the surface, I am a Benny fan, but to be perfectly honest, deep deep down in PittGirl’s soul, he kind of bugs me a bit … what with his scruffy appearance, this whole damn thumb (!) thing, his press conferences where he comes off a bit arrogant, etc. But that is just me, because [...]

PittGirl regularly reads the police blotters. Here’s why:
1. People steal stupid stuff:

Terry Paul Fairbanks, 44, of 4435 Sardis Road, Murrysville, charged by Trafford police with two counts of burglary and two counts of criminal trespass. Police allege Fairbanks took jewelry from one residence and copper refrigeration tubing and wire from another. Preliminary hearing [...]

Posted by pittgirl on 21 Dec 2005 | Tagged as: Uncategorized

The Burgh men (and maybe some women) have an obsession with Sonni Abatta that I can never hope to understand. My StatCounter account can attest to this.
So for all of you readers that come to my blog by Googling “Sonni Abatta,” can I please point your attention to THIS link?
If you ever wanted [...]
