The Devil's Advocate

Sorry Keanu fans, this post does not mean what you think it means.

Dear "Anonymous" has decided to throw his/her little two cents in. Which is always appreciated (Signed "Will Do Anything for a Comment" Girl), don't get me wrong - but has led me to today's post topic.

Curious as to how many of you are really out there. How many of you enjoying making comments that always have that little dig? That slap of reality that says "Oh really - so you think that Michael Jackson is innocent, eh? Well, tell me one thing, would you let YOUR child spend the night at his house?"

Or in this case in regards to my invitation to Sandy Bullock. I mean, clearly Sandra Bullock and I will not become BFF's. *tear* The woman is over 40, lives in another city, is a multimillionaire, and probably isn't even a Spurs fan. OBVIOUSLY - the friendship is ultimately doomed. I know this. But I still think it needed to be said that she'd be cool to chill with.

In fact, I think in many cases when people put on their "Devil's Advocate Hat", spout off some cynical comment and thumb their nose towards you - it is done in some vain attempt to sound intelligent or to come across as more "grounded in reality". Which I also applaud. I mean, if you need that sort of thing, but all means, please continue.

Now, I would be a complete hypocrite if I were to say I've never be THAT GIRL (ah-hah!) who while involved in an argument/discussion/debate, made sure to toss in that dose of logic usually left unsaid. But I will also admit that when I would do this, it was because I LOVE to be right. Just LOVE it. Hate being wrong. Hate it.

Besides, what's wrong w/living in a world where I feel I can send my kid (that I don't have) off to a sleepover at Uncle Mikey's house. Or a world where I could become BFF's w/Sandy Bullock and then she'd ask me to come live in her $7.3 million dollar house - rent free. Or even better, a world where I am mistaken for Eva Longoria, and Tony Parker and I elope to Vegas (Cause except for a few minor details, body type, height, and overall appearance - she and I could be twins ... or at least distant cousins).

I ask all of you "Devil's Advocates" (even you Keanu), what could be wrong with that!?!

Thank you.
