Still better than PittGirl … again.

Posted by pittgirl on 31 May 2007 | Tagged as: Random

You know how the Burgh deer are all pissed off again and have taken to stomping the stuffing out of innocent bitches everywhere ?
And you know how the Carbolic Smoke Ball makes PittGirl laugh and if I linked you to every story over there that made me laugh this blog would become a shrine to [...]

Are you KIDDING me?!?!

Duct tape.
Gotta love the stuff.  Half rope, half tape, all good.
And here in America where we buy loads of crappy shit from China that I’m pretty sure is being held together by a super secret special mixture of spit and flour, our stuff breaks constantly and duct tape is the “temporary” fix that never gets [...]

MY Giant Eagle.

I don’t know about YOUR Giant Eagle, but back where you can buy cheese from every place including Jupiter, MY Giant Eagle has this soul-sucking, scary-as-Ebola, blue-eyed, five-o-clock-shadowed, eyebrow-plucking, toupee-wearing, sombrero-hatted, overall-outfitted mannequin that I’m pretty sure if you get close enough to will blink once just to make you crap your pants.

Shiver.

1.  Sorry for two Random n@ posts in a row, but lordy it is slow in the Burgh lately.  In fact, the pigeons are so bored I’m pretty sure I saw one of them sitting on the curb on Strawberry Way just picking its nose.
2.   Today is my birthday.  While I sit here and [...]

1. From Guelph, Ontario, which is exactly 503 kilometers from the Burgh:
GUELPH, Ontario (AP) — Police in Ontario are looking for a man who allegedly approached women and asked them to kick him in the groin.
How come no one ever walks up to PittGirl and asks her to kick them in the groin? [...]

Models!

Posted by pittgirl on 25 May 2007 | Tagged as: Downtown happenings, Eye rolls

Who knew there was such a thing called ModelFest and who knew it was taking place in Pittsburgh?
Public relations, breaking into the music video and television markets, opportunities for plus size, ethnic, and fitness models, and how to design a professional model press kit.
Who knew there was a strategy for breaking into the music video [...]

Whoa, crazy lady!

You guys! Did you hear about the dude that jumped into the Mon yesterday after his dog jumped in after some birds?
Unfortunately, the guy drowned even though his brother-in-law and a woman passing by jumped in to try to save him.
Some things:
1. The story on one of the radio news snippets this morning [...]

Smile and the world wants to have your babies.

Posted by pittgirl on 24 May 2007 | Tagged as: Steelers, Troy Polamalu

Look! An interview with Troysus in which the Furrowed Eyebrows of Sincerity make another appearance.

There’s a smile to melt your heart, huh girls?
It will have to hold us over until Steelers.com fixes their stupid stupid multimedia section where the OTA pics are NOT showing up for some unknown reason. I bet it has something [...]

Back to You.

Posted by pittgirl on 24 May 2007 | Tagged as: Local media, Weather

I’m excited for “Back to You,” the new 1/2 hour comedy on Fox this fall featuring Kelsey Grammer and Patricia Heaton as Pittsburgh news reporters. You can watch clips here. (Click on “New Series” then “Back to You” and “See clips from this show”. See how easy that was?).
The show snapshot says:
In [...]

PittGirl gets hate mail.

Posted by pittgirl on 24 May 2007 | Tagged as: Annoying Burghers, Ben Roethlisberger, The Damn Pigeons

As I’ve said before, PittGirl’s favorite type of emails are those gushing with effusive, specific praise and including the words “you are frickin’ awesome.”
My SECOND favorite type is hate mail.
