Then, the baby from the previous post was found, alive and well, hydrated and with makeup covering her telltale birthmark, so that’s not even that interesting. I just really have nothing to say.
So thus! Today’s post is dedicated to my HERO OF THE DAY!
The inaugural HOTD was someone I knew, so I thought that this one should be someone I don’t. and I give you (drum roll, bated breath please):
OKSANA BAIUL.
Yeah. That’s right. What’s that? You don’t care about Oksana Baiul? Well you’re reading my blog, so you must have very little taste. And those of us with very little taste should love Oksana Baiul. Why, you ask? Because she started out as this darling little thing in 1994 that came from nowhere to beat out Nancy Kerrigan for the gold medal in the Lillehammer Olympics, and we weren’t even that mad, because seriously, we were only rooting for Nancy because we felt bad for her, and she had those big nostrils and kind of seemed like a bitch anyway.
So cute! I mean yeah, the bangs, but it was 1994, and she's from the Ukraine, and a figure skater, so whatever. America loved Oksana, embraced her with open arms, made her (briefly) our new golden child.
Now, she's this…thing/woman/what? :
Yeah. I know, right?
I decided to do a little research on Oksana. Everyone knows about the drunk driving arrest but I mean, the woman still shows her face in public (a big part of the reason that she is today’s HOTD) so she’s gotta be doing something.
The answer is this: living in New Jersey, and managing a clothing-and-jewelry line (it’s allegedly “skating-themed.”) I couldn’t find anything about it online, so it must suck. I guess that probably could have gone without saying.
But hey! Oksana! You’re still out there, girlfriend! You're running around at Fashion Week all uglied up, and quite possibly drunk! Way to have no shame, Oksana! Keep on keeping on.

Oksana was Tara Reid before Tara Reid was Tara Reid.
the carebear shirt is not ok. i think it might have been okay a few years ago, but i'm fairly certain that it is not okay today.
I thought that said Osama but I can't read so who cares.
She's an alcohlic like me. Yippy. Friends for life.
You know I clicked this blog cos I was hoping to mooch free Pittsburgh advice but I've been reading it and replying to posts for about an hour now.
While my productivity at work has plummeted, I've been kept entertained. So, y'know. Every cloud.
So anyway, you just made my favourites and when i can be arsed I will update my links.
So now you can look forward to Arrogance, tea drinking and poor dental hygeine in equal doses- I like to live the Stereotype. Equally I expect Americans to do the same when I visit, if I don't get shot by an illiterate republican in full KKK regalia the moment I leave the plane i will be most disappointed.
This is so awesome! I remember watching her on tv and cheering for her during the Olympics when I was little. Now she's all grown-up and tramped out. Rock on Oksana.
Your blog is so much fun to read. It's my respite from annoying Korean kids!
