Annoying People Of The Week
Are you relegated to “Thanking God It’s Friday?” Is life under the thumb of an annoying boss that is not as smart and witty as you are make you ponder, “What is the meaning of life?” or “I want to bitch slap that asshole.” Don’t despair. It just means you’re in need of a smile to help get through the day before dashing off for cocktails at some horrendous 2-for-1 watering hole, where others like yourself congregate to “download” the stress of the week. And if you are not working on the cure for cancer, then surely, you should not… Read More »
UPDATE: DECEMBER 21, 2009 Brooke Astor’s son, Anthony Marshall has been sentenced one to three years in state penitentiary. This is the mandatory jail time carried with the charge of grand larceny in the first degree. The 85 year old Marshall will also receive one year for each of the other charges for which he was found guilty, to be served concurrently. THIS WAS THE ORIGINAL STORY This ongoing salacious, sordid story about Brooke Astor, her namby-pamby eighty year-old son, (85 year-old and son in the same sentence sounds weird) Anthony Marshall and his cow (or pig) of a wife… Read More »
Here’s the thing about aging…no one does it well. And no one means what they say about how people age. Here’s a few for instances: “She looks great for her age” which really means “She’s had tons of work done and who is her doctor?”… Read More »
A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Words
The Chinese expression “A picture is worth a thousand words” is all I have to say today. I’ve perused the images of Anna Wintour’s guests last night at the Costume Institute Gala and have three words for the following people…I MEAN…WHAT?!? (Click on each photo for full frontal horrendosity.)… Read More »
Anna Wintour must be exhausted and the party has not even started. All this negative publicity about tonight’s Costume Institute Gala is even tiring me out. Publicity whore Michael Gross is the culprit here. His book is coming out about the Metropolitan Museum and he timed it’s release with the Gala. Naturally, any salacious tidbit of gossip is good for him. Frankly, I think Anna Wintour gets a bad rap. Yes, she might be a bit tight-assed, but she has done for fashion and New York City what few have. She created Lucky Bitches. These are the girls who work… Read More »
The best part of COVID-19 is that the Quirky Man-Hat is going to be retired forever. You can’t wear that AND a mask.… Read More »
It’s the weekend, and after a long ass week, the only thing I want to know or write about is cute news. Cute news are things that make you say “Awwww”. Chelsea Clinton is getting married this summer. Awwww. Word is that she and long-time love Mark Mezvinsky will tie the knot in August in Martha’s Vineyard. Chelsea is marrying a Jewish boy. I am kvelling (Yiddish for filled with pride; mostly done by Jewish mothers when their sons become doctors). I cannot wait to see the photos of Hillary, Bill, Barak and Michelle dancing the Hora together. See how… Read More »
If I read one more article about the Big Stupid Three, (stupid = U.S. automakers), I am going to barf. This is not the first time these companies have been squeezed to the point of doom. Hello, the 80’s. I’ve been asking everyone if they remember the K Car, developed during the oil crisis, which crippled the industry. No one seems to have any recollection. Having been accused on many occasions of dreaming things up, I found in Wikipedia (my newest obsession) that the K Car series, which rolled out in 1981, was attributed to saving Chrysler from bankruptcy. Over… Read More »
This is a great news day for me, for all sorts of reasons. First being that the 100 Days are over and second because I can finally report that Carrie Fisher is coming to Broadway. Why am I so excited? Mostly because this town could use a good laugh. New Yorkers have got to get that stick out of their ass. So, we are having a bit of a financial set back. To quote Cher, “Snap out of it!” Carrie’s one-woman show, “Wishful Drinking” is friggen ha-larious. It’s a two-hour therapeutic, laughing session. Plus, Carrie’s my friend and I’ve seen… Read More »
How About 100 Days Of Solitude.
There’s two things captivating the headlines. Swine Flu (you know how I stand on that issue) and Barak Obama’s 100 Days…which has now been celebrated for the 100th day. And just when you thought that there was nothing else to commemorate these 100 Days, comes fresh from the White House Press Office, 100 pictures of his 100 Days. Has anyone bought the commemorative plates yet? There’s a plate for every flush of the toilet…they are numbered…they’re amazing. Oh, and by the way, it’s not the only thing on Earth having a 100th milestone and to these other accomplishments, I’d like… Read More »
