Shirley Jones Playmate

Shirley Jones Playmate

Giving old broads and old buzzards hope everywhere, two of the best known and most beloved television Moms are helping US/U.S. cope with our complicated lives.

First, Shirley Jones will take off all her clothes for Playboy. I’ll bet Hef is out of the country for this photo shoot. Full employment for Photoshoppers International Local #666. I don’t know how this helps our complicated lives but more naked people can’t hurt.

Next up, Florence Henderson will help geezers understand this whole new TeeVee digital signal converter gadget thingamabob.

Those people…are old. And they need someone nonthreatening and of comparable age to explain the process in plain, large-print words. Preferably with pretty colors. Florence Henderson, better known as Carol Brady, has stepped up to what we’re sure is a thankless job.

Greg Pritchard from Britain’s Got Talent Will Freak You Out

What is it with Britain’s Got Talent that keeps dredging up these entertainers? Greg Pritchard is a waiter that “pretty much” hates his job.
Again, this is a Susan Boyle type freak out for the judges of Britain’s Got Talent. Greg Pritchard’s looks and his voice just don’t go together.

At. All.

Simon Cowell says “that shouldn’t have happened, should it… it’s like a dog meowing.” Would he like a dog to meow? Well, yes, he would.

Greg Pritchard calls himself a male soprano, but he explains he is a counter-tenor.

Prepared to be amazed… again.

Here’s the wiki on counter-tenor:

A countertenor is a male singing voice whose vocal range is equivalent to that of a contralto, mezzo-soprano, or (less frequently) a soprano, usually through use of falsetto, or more rarely the normal or modal voice. A pre-pubescent male who has this ability is called a treble. This term is used exclusively in the context of the classical vocal tradition, although numerous popular music artists also prefer employing falsetto.

Weird Al was a counter-tenor. Now that is Freaky.
