Olympic observations, friendship flap, and bikini baristas
Rajkhet Dirzhud-Rashid - SGN A&E Writer

So, to sum up the closing ceremony for those of you with short attention spans, China's closing ceremony rocked, and the "giving over" piece or thang or whatever the heck that was to London (where the 30th Olympiad will take place), not-so-good, even a little weird. I mean, David Beckham, Elena (Britain's new "big pop star"), and Jimmy Page as representatives of the land of our former revolutionary war rivals? Guys, surely Mick Jagger or David Bowie were available, or, say, even Guy Richie? Heck, Michael Caine's alive, and I guess David Beckham does represent Brit sports, but Duffy would have been so much better (she looks like Lulu, the '60s singer who sang that sultry ballad I love to do on karaoke, "To Sir, With Love," and I adore her to pieces) than that singer in the (at first) horridly preposterous dress.

Ah well, just glad America won a substantial amount of gold, and from now on when I swim at my local gym, I'll have Michael Phelps to look up to as my inspiration.

Let's hope that by the time the games are actually being televised from jolly old England, someone better will producing the opening and closing ceremonies, or the one who did so poorly on the closing in Beijing would have taken sufficient note to wow us, not make us all scratch our heads (as me, my ex and the Fabulous Daughter were doing last weekend).

So, what else has been tickling my noggin these days (beside heavy raindrops, signaling fall around the corner - no matter how many of you are denying that reality)? Well, if I could give a big, honking "shame on you, you beotch" award, I'd give it to that retro heifer who said on some news show last week that she "predicted" bad things happening to the "bikini baristas" because "when you dress like that, you just attract the wrong sort of attention."

What, huh?! Lady, this is 2008, and I say again, to folks like you (who seem stuck in the repressed '50s), no matter what a woman is wearing or not wearing, she doesn't deserve to be harassed by some nutjob with a hard-on. Get real, folks, these are working class women, who, even as they are acting on someone else's idea of fun, should still be respected and treated like human beings, not targets. And to those women, I say, keep some hot coffee nearby, and next time, aim, splash, and teach those pervs a lesson they won't forget. Probably had inadequate "equipment" anyway, so maybe you'd be doing some poor Betty a good service, rendering that idiot temporarily unable to disappoint. 'Nuff said.

Oh yes, and my prestigious "I heart you" award goes to the three women who rushed into a burning building, saved a couple of folks, and, more than that, helped catch the arsonist. Ladies you rock and are a good inspiration to us all, and I do heart you all.

And just in case you thought this column wouldn't include any lust, honey, you are so wrong As this one has been not only flirting up a certain Asian, femme bottom, but also collecting blonds and redheads of both sexes, including a certain bicycle cop who this one flirted with while doing her tarot thang at the Central Area Community Fair. And, baby, I was serious about the reading and my innuendo that you maybe check out more than my cards, eh?

Also, another hot blond (we're not saying who) got my attention on my way to my weekly farmer's market trip to Ballard a week ago, and my heart's all aflutter after plans were made to hook up for some more chat time, and maybe more. Keep ya posted, but not too much info, because a lady never blabs everything, my dahlings. As if that weren't enough for this little lust puppy, I was cruised big time by a hotter-than-melting mercury, red-haired femme at my gym last week. Hey, you never know when wearing a rainbow bracelet can come in handy, my little chocolate bites! Looks like the stars are moving back to my side of happy, except for a friendship freeze on my used-to-be BFF, who seems to be acting out her Scorpio moon side of late. Prayers for that one, and hopes for her to return to her Gemini/Taurean senses and the fun to continue as before.

So, with all of this drama, good and bad, what delish things has this one tried, as she heads into her fave season, that she wants to share with you my dear ones? Well, I am absorbed with my new fave lipstick from Yves Rocher (guess my debt is forgiven, yay!) in the sexiest pink, Framboise. So perfect with smoky eyes. Reach them by going to www.yvesrocher.com and pick up the new catalogue chock-full of good stuff. Also loving two newly re-released scents by Chanel from their signature collection, Lil' Angel and Music. These and one other will be available at Nordstrom, along with a yummy assortment of fall shoes and boots to die for. Now, if I could just win the lottery, or do a reading for someone like Bill Gates, or Chris Gregoire (you're gonna whup his butt, chile!).

Finally, do try Physician's Formula Touch of Gold eye-brightener, which this one was wearing the day the gawgeous redhead noticed me in the gym. Pick it up at either Walgreen's or Bartels, and see what adventures you can have. Who knows, if you're a student returning to school, this could put you in the top of your class, or at least start some "akshon" after class with a new playmate.

So, that's it for now, my little turning leaves, and do keep fighting the good fight, whatever that may be, and if you're not registered, honey, get registered to vote ASAP. We need you on the front lines in November to defeat the dreaded and terrible McCain and his ilk. Keep it true and authentic, and be safe out there, both you drivers and pedestrians (though why anyone is still driving with proof of global warming everywhere, I don't know, unless you live far, far away, and that car is your only means of getting from A to Z). Remember, we are guests on this planet, not rulers, so be kind to our mom, yes? And do feel free to e-mail me at ijanaral@yahoo.com, and check out my blog of this column at bloggerspot.com. Buhbye, oh, and KCTS, you rock for bringing me Inspector Lynley, and repeats of Red Dwarf, and I will send cash your way when I can, promise!
