Video of the Day Lunchtime Quickie

Did Meredith Vieira really say, "I'm a horny old woman" while hosting a TV game show? I think she did. Rrrarrr-rar-rrrow! You, Meredith, are the new Queen of the Cougars. Get 'em! Bite 'em! Wet willies for everyone...

No, she said she's an "old horny woman".

And a funny old horny woman, at that. The pitch of her voice was noticeably higher when he took appeared on set. Adorable. Both of them.

Kelly,
Yeah, that was pretty funny. Very audacious on Vieira's part.

Unbelievable! This is pretty funny, but also a bit pathetic, like she said. The thing is, if this were Regis talking to a hot woman, it would totally be harassment. Ah the double standard.

I think that it's kinda sweet, really. Meredith isn't exactly chopped liver herself, y'know. But she downplays it by doing the you're-so-cute-that-I'm-losing-my-shit bit in a gracious, schooled, everyman sort of way. And she doesn't do it in that aggressive, not welcomed attack associated with what I thought a cougar was. The guy felt flattered but not pinned down.

BTW, terms soon to fall out of fashion due to wide overuse: cougar and douche.

I was on Millionaire and she's a very charming and funny woman off camera. She made it fun.

If I were that flyboy, I would have made sure she had the digits before the show was over. But then again, that cutie probably gets more booty than (insert witticism here).
