The Year of Living Dangerously

Is that a cigarette in his hand or a pen in case someone wants his autograph?

I'm sure you'll be relieved and thrilled to learn that Oksana Grigorieva gave birth to Mel Gibson's baby in Los Angeles last Friday. Lucia is their daughter's name and we certainly wish her all the best despite what she was dealt in the parental cards department.

As you no doubt are aware, Mel was married for 28 years and had 7 kids with his wife. I don't think any of them are talking to him at this point and who can blame them? It's embarrassing when middle aged dads still don't know how to use a condom.

The new mother also has a 12-year-old son by actor Timothy Dalton who was James Bond once upon a time.

She was quoted as saying "You don't control the situations or the people you meet. I did not plan this. I'm just doing what I've always been doing. It's not like I've changed my goals at all."

What does this mean? That she likes getting knocked up by actors who are virtual strangers and has no clue what birth control is? And she hasn't changed her goals? What the hell goals would she have had in the first place?

Can An Annulment be Far Behind?

Now that Mrs. Gibson has filed for divorce, Mr. Gibson apparently feels that it's safe to take the mistress out in public. The picture above is from the X-Men premiere.

Oksana Grigorieva is a Russian composer and Timothy Dalton's ex. Ex what, I don't know.

Anyway, since Mel portrays himself as such a super Roman Catholic, how long will it be before the Church grants him an annulment of his 28 year marriage that produced 7 children? Probably not all that long. As for the price tag, we'll have to see about that.

Unless his first marriage is annulled, Mel could not remarry in the Catholic Church, for those of you who might not know too much about this craziness.
