Sad news for people who enjoy blogs that are typed in all lower-case letters: Rosie O'Donnell has stopped updating her blog. Oh the humanity, etc.O'Donnell says she has stopped blogging because it "wasn't providing the joy that it used to." Or the Whoopi, the Sherri, the Barbara or the Elizabeth. Definitely not the Elizabeth. This all is perfectly reasonable though. Nothing Rosie has done lately (*cough* live show on NBC *cough*) has given any joy to TV viewers either, so it's only fair that this stop bringing joy to her. But she's not shutting down her web site. She'll just post other things besides her opinions and thoughts and personal videos. Rosie.com now forwards to RosiesBroadwayKids.org, which is a worthwhile endeavor, so kudos to her for that.
My favorite quote from Rosie about the blogging stoppage is this: "when I started to blog, no one knew what a blog was." Uhhhh, yeah. OK.

"when I started to blog, no one knew what a blog was."
Not even Al Gore, the man who invented the internet?

"no one knew what a blog was" ...nor spelling, punctuation or coherent thought.

I enjoy Rosie. No she's not perfect, but she is human, and she's not afraid to say what's on her mind. That's refreshing in today's PC/over-censored media, and that was why when I did occasionally visit her blog I enjoyed it. Everyone has their opinions, fine, but can't we at least give her some credit for being willing and having the bravery to say and stand up for what she believes in?
