Celebitchy 2016. I CAN’T! “I understand the businesses are getting something out of it, but perhaps we should stop pretending that Will and Kate are anything other than B-list celebrities getting freebies at every turn? What have Will and Kate done that another celebrity wouldn’t do with a lot less expense to the British taxpayer? Not to mention the French taxpayer every time Will and Kate travel abroad, whether it’s for work or pleasure, the host country picks up the tab for extra security.”

In the past, I have made no secret of my disdain for Chef Gusteau’s famous motto, “Anyone can cook.” But I realize, only now do I truly understand what he meant. Not everyone can become a great artist, but a great artist can come from anywhere. It is difficult to imagine more humble origins than those of the genius now cooking at Gusteau’s, who is, in this critic’s opinion, nothing less than the finest chef in France. I will be returning to Gusteau’s soon, hungry for more.

Ratatouille (2007)

Submitted: She graduated…

Her name appears on the NWU 2003 Commencement program with a Bachelor of Science in Communication from the School of Communication, formerly the School of Speech. It is in a long list of names and you will see the degree if you scroll up slowly, though the formatting is wonky. . 

It appears she did not do any double major but a vanilla Communications degree. 

US Treasury Secretary Paul O’Neill visited Argentina in August 2002 right around her 21st birthday which explains why some articles say 20 and some say 21.

I don’t know if NWU has fall and spring commencement but she likely missed fall commencement deadlines and/or needed a couple more credits and so went for spring commencement even if she had already started auditioning.

ps: several articles stated the internship was 6 weeks not 6 months, which makes more sense. 


Thank you for finding that commencement program! I knew I’d seen it around but I couldn’t .

I’d also add that most–if not all–universities and colleges in the US, require you to apply for graduation. You have to prove to the registrar that you have met the requirements for graduation. You do not inadvertently end up on the commencement program by accident.

You don’t need to have a degree to take the civil service exam. You only have to be 18 years old.

Sorry, I meant foreign service. From what I can remember you had to have a bachelor’s and they actually preferred a master’s or even a doctorate.

Actually, having a degree isn’t a specific requirement to become a foreign service officer. State Department leaves that door open. It’s statistically unlikely that someone would become a foreign service officer without one though.

Tarot reader update. The Markle mess has been delt with we won’t be hearing from them anymore. Harry having money issues Meghan’s spending has to stop. She’s not happy. Will and Harry have had a falling out Will didn’t agree to this marriage & told Harry he was rushing it that he would regret it. Kate is also not happy about how this has all turned out. Charles & Camilla are ignoring the situation bc Charles is worried about becoming king. Meghan is hiding a bad secret.

Thanks! This sounds like it could be accurate based on that recent leak from Thomas” curiously well-educated “adviser,” and that weird Tom Sykes article attacking Charles. Who is the reader? Is it on YouTube?

Naomi Tarot did a recent one. Much of what is said above seems to be in it.

“Actually, Phillip doesn’t call hm cabbage. He’s been heard to call her “mon chou” or however it’s spelled, which is a common french term of endearment that translates to “my cabbage.”” Can I please correct this as a French person. “Chou” does mean cabbage + the plural of cabbage is “choux” (pronounced the same), but that’s not what he’s calling her. “Choux” is also a word for a kind of puff pastry filled with cream. It gets my goat when people make this translation error. Google “choux pastry”.

I was wondering about this! Thanks.
