Katie’s Cruisin’
We interrupt this regularly-scheduled shredding to bring you kick-ass news: Katie Holmes completed the NYC marathon over the weekend in under six hours. That’s 26 miles, people. Holy shit.
Yeah, I rip on her a tad (like, uh, her girls are looking totally droopy in her running gear here), but really, that is one hulluva feat for the 28-year-old Mama. And what’s even more noteworthy: Just hours later, she strapped on her stilettos to take in a special screening of Tommy Boy’s Lions for Lambs. Now that’s a woman!
Okay, now that I got those niceties out of my system, may I just say that Tom looks a smidge overdressed for a freaking marathon watch-session (does the man even own any jeans?!?) and that most of the six-year-olds I know have a more stylish haircut than he does. Really.
Phew. Now, I feel better.
Props to Ms. Katie once again - as I sit here eating my Sausage Mc Muffin and sipping my (third) mimosa. Sigh.

I did a half marathon once a few years ago. I’ll never do one ever again unless aliens are in pursuit or if the prize at the end is a lifetime of unlimited spending money and a leisurely lifestyle on a Meditteranean Yacht.
Tom freaks me out! Do you think he Botoxes?
Seriously, what is with that little boy hair cut? And all of the turtlenecks he is wearing all the time now - ugh. It is time to grow up!!!
Karen - Half marathon? Gawd, dahling. I feel like going up to my second floor is exhausting enough. You’re my new hero.
And if Tom doesn’t Botox, may my fabulous hair turn stupid like his.
Teri - Do you think he’s wearing turtlenecks because frisky Ms. Marathon Chick is giving him hickies?
Ewwwww…
Yanno, it’s said that a young wife keeps a man young himself, but maybe the Cruises are taking that to the extreme. Like, way extreme.
Question for Tom Cruise– what does it feel like to be married to a taller woman? Like, you know, it’s as if he’s leaning on her all the time– when it should have been the other way round.
