Pale is the new Tan

As an Irish-American I'm glad to see the cast of Twilight is bringing back pale. Actually I'm not sure that pale was ever in, but it seems to finally be making a name for itself, and one that isn't only associated with carrot top and the tourist from Wisconsin who ends up looking like a walking radish after his first day in Hawaii.


Sorry Wisconsin. If it's any constellation, I was unable to participate in a couples massage with my dark skinned counterpart on day 2 of a recent trip to Maui. She told me to "wear something a little stronger than SPF15" on our first day that consisted of 11 Mai Tai's and 6 straight hours in the sun. My response....I'm the king of the Irish Tan (a slight burn that turns into a tan 2 days later). Call me crazy, but a massage with hot lava rocks didn't sound good to a red skinned leprechaun.

Sorry for the side story, my combination of A.D.D. and Jameson rocks just kicked in. Back to Eclipse. With the official Hollywood premiere of Eclipse slated for June 24th, it's perfectly timed to help get me through another summer of lathering myself up in SPF 50 (AKA Primer) without the usual embarrassment.

This post is merely a thank you to the cast for not allowing the cast of The Jersey Shore to put us through another summer of shaved chests, spray tanning and enough hair gel to kill a small family.

CHEERS.... you pasty gangsters....CHEERS
