“I Mean…What?!?” – Abe Gurko

This cute little Valentine’s Day card came to my inbox and I wanted to share it with you. Which one are you? Peggy the whore or Viola the sad hag who’s family member (probably) sent her the card. I am neither, though I’d prefer to be Peggy quite honestly. Come on, she’s having all the fun. Alas, at my age that’s more than one can hope for. I mean…what?!?… Read More »

I don’t mean to go on and on about Patsy and Edina but surely you have to agree that what the world needs now is a lot more of them than, let’s say, Michael Phelps or A-Rod. Would someone please tell me why I should call someone that spent his waking hours in the water (avoiding his overbearing mom, no doubt) or an uber-jock who shoots roids (shot, whatever) my hero? Why because sports is such a heroic fete? Captain Sully, absolutely gets my vote as hero extraordinaire along with the drew of Flight 1549. But those other two? Not doing it.… Read More »

So next up is NY Fashion Week. And an interesting one it will be. You have Marc Jacobs cutting his audience by two-thirds, Vera Wang not doing a show, Betsey Johnson fleeing the tents, independant designers bellying up. I mean…what?!?  Has the world come to a fierce end? With all the doom and gloom in the financial headlines, WWD is beginning to sound like Chicken Little. But, this is the New York Fashion Week, for Christ sakes. The smoke-and-mirrors, Emperor’s-new-clothes capital of the world. We can’t act like we’ve been licked by this stupid recession. We have to “act as… Read More »

To all you bloggers and internet hags, I am officially starting my daily entries to this blog. I will comment on things in the news: political, gossip, and other such nonesense. Also, I will highlight groovy things to buy and to look into further. Granted, you might not give a shit what I think, but then again the feeling is mutual; I don’t give a shit about what you think that I think. So get ready for a fantastic summer with a lot of great ideas and dishy tidbits.… Read More »
