SORRY ABOUT THE AFFAIR WITH THE NANNY–by Steve Nadis
Sorry to mention it again, but people can’t apologize often enough in my opinion–”sorry about the torture,” “sorry about the assault and battery with intent to call,” and “sorry about going postal” being just the latest uses of this magic word. If he wants my opinion, and there’s every indication that he does, Jude Law ought to look his fiancee straight in the eye and make a clean breast of it (sorry about the pun but I couldn’t resist). If he takes her hand and casually remarks, “Sorry about the affair with the nanny,” I don’t see how Sienna Miller (or any woman in her right mind, for that matter) would hold it against him. Rest assured that Jude is fully prepared to put the whole sordid affair behind him, even though the nanny is better looking and generally more understanding, if Sienna is willing to look at the big picture for a change and not get sidetracked by scandal-mongering tabloids and blogs. To sum it up, Jude, in case I’m being too Obscure (even for a Thomas Hardy aficionado like yourself), all it will take to make things right are just seven words, none having more than two syllables. And it all starts with the word “sorry.”

Hey Snark, you really are serious about becoming a blogger of celebrities. Perhaps someday you can become a celebrity blogger.
Thank you, CL, for the encouragement. One can always dream…
Hey "CL," why do you keep calling him Snark when he’s said he doesn’t like that word? Do you like to end words with "ark"? If so, maybe we should call you Clark.
Boy did this post get me fantasizng. No, not about the sex proposal. Working couples have a hard time finding a decent babysitter just to go out to a movie once and while and this guy had A LIVE-IN NANNY! Think of it people, a live-in nanny!! He could go out and MAKE a movie for months and know his kids would be taken care of! He could probably even hop in his car and go to the gas station without loading up car seats! And he gave this up for….sex???? What an idiot.
I know what you mean: A good babysitter is hard to find. (Flannery O’Connor wrote a book about that once, didn’t she?) On the other hand, sex makes fools out of all of us. Some weak types may be tempted, even though it could mean having to deal with all those carseats.
Oh.My.God. You know Flannery O’Connor? A Good Man is Hard to Find is only about my favorite short story EVER. Don’t get me started. I’ll just bore you with my memories of her references to her characters’ heads "like a cabbage." I just knew I liked you.
I agree; she’s a good one all right.
