Princess Di Has a Diet for You

March 23, 2006 --
POSTHUMOUSLY, Princess Diana is out with a diet book. It's titled: 'Body Transformation: Lose Weight, Gain Energy & Reverse Premature Aging.' The coverline by HRH Princess Elizabeth of Yugoslavia says: 'This is the only health book Princess Diana wanted to share with the world.' The back of the jacket has this from Dr. Ronald W. Davey, the Queen's Physician: 'I am very impressed by the book . . . it explores and explains alternative medicine . . . with scientific assessment and justifications.' Author Julie Chrystyn's acknowledgements say: ' 'Body Transformation' would not have happened without the encouragement of the late Diana, princess of Wales. She eagerly chose to offer her public endorsement of the original, pre-updated version of this book, which would have made it her first, and perhaps only, gesture of its kind.' Author Chrystyn goes on to explain HRH's connection to this work and then offers 'my heartfelt gratitude to the late Princess Diana.'

After Diana's death, the work was shelved then picked up by Random House and is now being published by Phoenix."

The Dixie Chicks are back. And they're pissed.

GREAT new song. You can hear it for free on their home page, just turn up your speakers, it plays automatically - lyrics are there too.
Its a sad sad story when a mother will teach her
Daughter that she ought to hate a perfect stranger
And how in the world can the words that I said
Send somebody so over the edge
That they%u2019d write me a letter
Sayin' that I better shut up and sing
Or my life will be over
I'm not ready to make nice
I'm not ready to back down
I'm still mad as hell and
I don't have time to go round and round and round
It's too late to make it right
I probably wouldn't if I could
Cause I'm mad as hell
Can't bring myself to do what it is you think I should."
