Gather ’round, all my children.
     Soap sudser Susan Lucci obviously has been nice, not naughty, since she has been chosen as this year’s 2009 Grand Marshal for The Hollywood Christmas Parade.
     She’s flying in from Long island where she lives with her family while filming All My Children. We don’t know if there’s room on Santa’s sleigh or if she’s flying the friendly skies a more traditional way.
     “I am thrilled and honored to serve as the Grand Marshal of the 2009 Hollywood Christmas Parade,” gushes Susan ina press agent dram statement. “I am so happy that this year’s parade will be telecast for the first time ever as a two-hour primetime television event, spreading holiday cheer and happiness to Americans across the country. The Hollywood Christmas Parade is for children and families, both of whom are very important to me in my personal life. All My Children will be relocating from New York to Los Angeles in January 2010 where the show will be filmed in the years ahead. I’m looking forward to working in Los Angeles and enjoying the beautiful sunny weather in the Southland.”
     Southland? What the hell is she talking about?
     She assume she will continue hawking her fake gems and not-made-in-the-US clothing, shoes, cosmetics, microdermabrasion system  and Malibu Pilates on HSN.
     Joining La Lucci in the parade will be (and this comes straight from the horse’s mouth) “celebrities from film, television and stage; award winning bands; colorful equestrians; ornate floats and specialty characters . . .  with a special appearance by Santa Claus.”
     The parade will travel on a U-shaped route throughout Hollywood, California on Orange Street and Hollywood Boulevard, traveling East onto Hollywood Boulevard turning South onto Vine Street, and then traveling West onto Sunset Boulevard back to Orange Street. The fun starts at 6 p.m. local time on Sunday, November 29, 2009, but the “live“ event won’t be telecast until Thursday, December 10, 2009. (Edit the horse poop, the Lucci flubs . . .)
     After all, we only have one life to live.
