Marcia Marcia Marcia!

Brady Bunch Feud

Maureen McCormick, who played Marcia on "The Brady Bunch," claims Eve Plumb, who played her sister Jan, is upset because McCormick claimed they had a lesbian affair on the set of the '70s sitcom.

McCormick, blogging this week on Fancast.com, said all six Brady "kids" were invited to reunite on the Oprah Winfrey show in September: "All of us said yes except for one person, Eve Plumb, who used to be my best friend but now apparently wants to distance herself from the show and, most troubling, from me ... I have no idea why, unless she's mad at the joke I made a few years ago that we'd had a lesbian love affair. I made the crack to be funny — and for shock value. I'm sorry if she took offense."

McCormick "joked" about their sapphic sex last year just before her autobiography, "Here's the Story," was published. The "joke" made the book a best seller.

Plumb's agent, Mark Measures, downplayed any animosity: "No one from 'Oprah' called. We haven't turned down anything. There is no feud."

Then and Now

What you need to do Jan, is whack Maureen in the nose, preferably with a football.

A great batting game with cool sound effects. Easy to play, choose between left or right-hand batters, follow the path of the ball and center the "sweet spot" with your cursor and use the left mouse button to swing away.

It's not so easy to hit a home run, though, at least after the first pitching change.

Extra points for hitting birds as they fly across the outfield. There may be extra points for hitting the blimp, but I never did it.

I LOVE batting games; there's some odd satisfaction in watching the ball go into the bleachers or hitting the scoreboard and breaking it.

With an anticipated high of 103˚ today, it certainly will be a fervid, fiery, thirsty, and thermogenic Thursday.
