Today's amazing discovery: breastcancer.org's Celebrity Talking Dictionary. Personal favorites so far:

* David Hyde Pierce saying "anemia" (how apt)
* Katie Couric saying "nipple"
* Al Roker saying anything, because he's SO HAPPY ABOUT IT
* A disheartened Ray Romano explaining the pituitary gland like he's your middle school gym teacher

What about RIchard Roundtree pronouncing MammoSite. I would NOT mess with that thing, no sir-ee. Sounds like it means business.

[martini_corona]

Excellent! I didn't notice that one.

Indeed, also, Willard Scott makes Al Roker's excitement look like boredom by comparison. Poor guy. I guess this is the only gig he can swing these days.

Hee. I apologize, but I feel compelled to link this.

While I appreciating your interest in educating the public about the importance of breast exams, I have the following other (gut) responses:

* I can't believe I wrote a post that now has a comment that now links to Fall Out Boy.

* What the hell? The clip stops before Valient Thorr's exam. THAT I want to see.

That article needs additional citations for verification.

a) I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner, really.

b) This one doesn't cut off, but the Valient Thorr section is a little disappointing; there's also a brief bit of him in 2006 edition. Just for the sake of completeness.

Awesome! I can giggle at Ray Romano saying "sex hormones" over and over.

Also enjoy Iman saying "total estrogen blockade" like she's an Eastern European war correspondent.
