Feisty Friends of the Forever Fiancee

A few of my coworkers have had enough of the rampant "testosterone" wafting from my bazoomy blog. So they're rising up and defending the Forever Fiancee...

That's it! I can no longer stay silent. Tamara El-Khoury here, Times reporter, Pop Life lurker and official Feisty Friend of the Forever Fiancee. That’s right, I’ve started a club: FF's of the FF unite!

Stephanie Hayes, are you with me?

I avoid posting, trying to stay neutral like a good journalist should. Like you, I’ve endured Sean’s testosterone-filled posts on Mrs. Overmyer-Daly, his grass-skirted Hula Girl tattoo, his South Carolinian co-ed harem and finally, the last straw, the Divorcees for Daly ta-ta stunt.

It's time to rise up in defense of the FF, the mother of Daly’s spawn, the woman who has to read about Ashley Tisdale, Pamela Sue Martin and her fiance’s other crushes of the week. What does she get in return? Dead tulips. Well, FF, this is for you.

I guess this is one girls power club I won't be welcome to join. Ya know, since my tatas are subject of the 'last straw' ~ I feel like daunting music should be playing.
But it should be noted that I often scold SD. Regardless, I'm taking my cha-chas and going home! I've always been more comfortable hangin' with the boys, anyway ~~ runs off sobbing.

[Jeff in Cuba]

SD,

Yikes. You're welcome to crash in our guest room until it's safe to show your Y-chromosome in Florida again.

You may want to act quickly, before the fearsome forces of the Fiesty Friends of the Forever Fiancee book you into some of GTMO's less appealing accommodations.

[Forever Fiancee]

Awwww shucks....thanks for the support, girls! And for forming the FF’s of the FF Club! I feel all warm and tingly inside. And very empowered! So empowered, in fact, I’m going to share my Top 10 List. Take that SD!

So, here it goes (in no particular order):
1) George Clooney (yes, I realize this is a cliché)
2) Brad Pitt (with or without George Clooney)
3) David Bowie (weird, I know)
4) Antonio Banderas (as Zorro – I LOVE the mask)
5) Pierce Brosnan (as Thomas Crown – meow)
6) Simon LeBon from Duran Duran (80’s version OR current - he still looks damn good!)
7) Patrick Dempsey (how much more adorable can you get!)
8) David Beckham (as long as he doesn’t open his mouth to speak)
9) Tyson Beckford (super model extraordinaire – my Lord that man is handsome!)
10) George Clooney (he’s actually worth mentioning again)

Hmmm....that’s curious....nowhere on that list does it say Sean Daly....HA!

[Forever Fiancee]

Oh, and here are my song contributions:

Survivor - Destiny's Child

Witchy Woman - Eagles

I'm a Woman - Christine Kittrell/Peggy Lee (yes, I had to Google that one because I had no idea who sang it)

[Marissa]

I'm giggling over the commentary on David Beckham. I always thought he was delicious until he opened his mouth and spoke. Yikes!

[MaiSitter]

FF, wouldn't it be great if none of them opened their mouths to speak! A smile and a nod is good for me.
My celeb list:
Mike Rowe, Dirty Jobs ( he can talk, love his voice)
McDempsey, met him, very nice, smelled WONDERFUL.
Clooney, he had me at ER
Zac Braff, I dig the geeky shiek

[Tamara El-Khoury]

FF, we've got your back! I'd like to credit the creative artwork to the talented Stephanie Hayes.

[MaiSitter]

Since we're SD bashing.... here are my songs for Sean to cry into his pillow to....
Let The Bad Times Roll~ Paul Westerberg
I Hate Everyone~ Get Set Go ( not rated G)
Nobody Likes me, Everybody Hates Me ~ Various Children on Playgrounds around the world

[Marissa]

MaiSitter, Mike Rowe also sings. Opera, even.

[Forever Fiancee]

Actually, MaiSitter, I have a thing for British accents. So Simon LeBon, David Bowie and Pierce Brosnan can talk all they want. But Beckham has this annoying and unintelligible Cockney accent that does not match his god-like physique AT ALL! So he needs to be silent!

Stephanie - Love the artwork! I think we've found Sean's tattoo.

[MaiSitter]

Marissa~ I did know he was a singer, all the more to make my little heart pitter patter. FF, I enjoy a good Brit accent, too! Sometimes, a Scottish one if I can understand what they're saying.

[Stephanie Hayes]

Just logging on. I'm clearly NOT a morning person. Woooo, FF! I was happy to employ my mad Microsoft Paint skillz at Tamara's angry and empowered sisterhood behest last night.

And you're right, David Beckham sounds like he got kneed in the naughty bits. My friends do a great Beckham impression that sounds like a cross between Monty Pythyon ("I don't like Spam!") and Yoda.

Since we're talking Brits, how about Colin Firth and Huge Grant? Bridget Jones is so lucky!

[Stephanie Hayes]

And don't worry, Marissa. SD bashing is all in good fun (except for maybe, uh, SD). And just think - your tatas started a revolution! Most people can't say that.

[Forever Fiancee]

For her list, a good friend of mine has replaced David Bowie and Simon LeBon with Johnny Depp and Denzel Washington. Good choices! I would say they are on my list as well, but only if I expand to 20, which is entirely possible.

There's something about a swashbuckling pirate with dreadlocks, gold teeth and heavy black eyeliner that really floats a girl's boat (so to speak!)

I'm with you on Johnny, but I just have this unsettling feeling that he probably smells weird... like feet.

[Brad]

I'd add a song to the list:

Stutter - Elastica

[tko]

dont forget, "I will Survive" and my ultimate fave by Miranda Lambert, Gunpowder & Lead!!!!
as much as i love you sean, i am an official FF of the FF!!!

[Erin]

I want in on the fun but the only song my worn-out brain can come up with for the FFFF club is Sister Sledge's "We are Family" -- a little lame.

As far as Johnny Depp goes, I'll take his stinky feet anytime

FF, we've got your back

No. 11 on the list -- Spearsy?

[Forever Fiancee]

I thought about adding Spearsy to the list, but he's just too much man for me! I need to stick with simple conquests, like George Clooney.

[Guy]

Although Marissa would like to take credit for it, the Divorcees for Daly was actually a self-portrait of Sean.

And you thought he was only joking about his ample man-bosoms ...

[Sean Daly]

The FF is going to be unbearable tonight. You people have created a monster.

[sparky]

I really think getting that tat I suggested may calm the roaring wildfire you have here.

As far as the FF's top 10 list. I am assuming that those would be the order of the men she'd try to conquer if she didn't have to climb Mt. Daly.

[Guy]

I see the FF likes her masked men; ever considered wearing a wolf mask, Daly?

[Jeff in Cuba]

Riss/Steph,

Let's not kid ourselves.

If you dig into your history enough, you'll find out this one truth:

All revolutions are started over tatas. In fact, they have been the inspiration for just about everything men have ever done, going all the way back to the cavemen.

"Uggh. Laga have nice rack. Me invent fire now."

[Marissa]

I will tell everybody on here that my tatas haven't opened doors, granted me oodles of monetary delights or material goods. Hell, they don't even get me dates. I'm pretty sure no one has ever fought over them (or me). I've considered firing them. Pesky buggers. I suffer from the inability to find a bra that fits. It's a curse! I've written plenty abou such woes.

I can assure everyone that if Thelma and Louise have ever started a stir, it's been in the privacy of someone's home. 'Cuz I sure as hell never see it ~ Well, not until now.

ps. Yes, I named my girls.

[jane]

Meager contribution: I Enjoy Being a Girl -- from Flower Drum Song (Rogers & Hamerstein, baby!)

Great call on W-O-M-A-N, FF. Peggy Lee's version.

"I can bring home the bacon
Fry it up in a pan
And never ever let you forget you're a man..."

PS: My Top Ten list also begins and ends with Clooney. And then some...

[Melissa]

Your list is great FF but I'd have to add one to it. Josh Holloway of Lost. Good Lord that man is hot. Whenever my husband starts to speak I just say, "say it like you're Sawyer." In the end, we both win! haha!

[Rosa]

And Sean wonders why I address my emails to Steve.

[jane]

melissa, that is hilarious -- and even though I don't watch lost, I do appreciate the hotness of josh holloway. damn.
