| A FUN FILLED FIRTH WEEK IN LA Your arrival in LA we all anticipated It seemed like forever that we waited. Monday January 16th, 2006 marked the date When all the stars would shine and congregate. From a distance the view was sort of blurry. But then emerged a vision of scruffy and furry. You smiled for us with exuberance and charm Almost didn't notice dear Emma on your arm. We were all excited and our hearts in aquiver Our knees shaking and our lips started to shiver. Live and in the flesh, we could finally see you Then came the dreaded Joan Rivers interview. GOOD HEAVENS did you ever hear anyone so lame? She didn't even know you or your name! Called you GregWise and threw you a curve Good Lord, that woman has really got some nerve. The PnP comments were so very confusing Unfortunately for you not very amusing. But Emma and you got through it with style and grace With no animosity toward that woman with a plastic face. Both you and Emma were great on the Red Carpet Now what did you think of grown up Miss Scarlett? We were all watching and did not miss That station break when you gave her a kiss! And then on stage and for a brief moment It was your turn to speak and present. If only you had hosted the entire event But we'll take whatever we can and be content. All evening long the CFFW boards were flashing Small wonder MSN wasn't crashing Screen caps and Colin sightings galore. Who could ask for anything more? The Golden Globe ceremony came to an end. We congratulate the winners and commend Those performances that honored their worth. But none was so compelling as that of Colin Firth. Meawhile we would continue to pursue Each and every Colin Firth interview. Till Thursday, January 18th, and the Tonight Show On NBC and hosted by comedian Jay Leno. We anxiously waited for you to appear An intro by Jay and the audience started to cheer. Dressed in jacket, black tee and jeans, so cool Causing us to sigh, melt and of course drool. You tell a story and we can only suppose How you really caught your finger in the windows. And by now as everyone knows You were not wearing traditional street clothes. Graphically you describe how the window lock Malfuntioned and trapped your finger. What a shock! So you called for assistance with a reserved urgency. How does one get help in such an emergency? Your pleas for a rescue went unheeded A blood curdling scream is what was needed. Your neighbor finally responded and just by chance Got to meet you in non-presentation underpants! You both chatted politely for a while. Another neighbor entered and found a file And helped to release your fingers for good. By then you had visitors from the entire neighborhood. Perhaps there is a moral to this story. Never attempt to open a window in all your glory! Always stay from the window sills And brush up on your neighborly social skills. Dispose of the fuzzy slippers on your feet And on Ellen , next week , this tale you will repeat. Johanna 1/25/06 |
