Weekend Fodder

Eliot Spitzer, guilty of male perfidy and sanctimony, resigned from the post of New York Governor.

Tibetans just got a crazy spokeperson
. Emboldened by berserk Icelandic singer Bjork's battle cry, Tibetans are taking it to the streets to demand independence from China. Not to be outdone by Bjork, American gigolo turned Buddhist Richard Gere threatens to boycott the Beijing Olympics if China mishandles.

Tang Wei of Lust Caution fame just got banned in the Chinese media. Apparently her no hold bar performance is too hot for the old men to handle. Unilever which hires Tang as a spokeperson for its Pond's brand stands to lose some money, like in the neighborhood of $800,000. Good job muddling international business.

Another week, another sub-prime mortgage crisis. Bear Stearns is on life support.

The gloves are off. Cathy Horyn vs. Giorgio Armani and Michael Reichmann vs. Ken Rockwell.

Speakeasy says I am connected at 3021kbps and 487kbps, at least in the mornings, some of the time. But most of the time, the downstream is more like less than 1000mbps.

You know you are cheaper than a call girl if you make less than $800 an hour. Another reason to feel depressed. The seven diamonds ones make like $5000 an hour. Kristen is in the $1000 an hour range. I heard Client #9 hardly needed an hour but then they don't prorate.

Hong Kong is now just 12 hours ahead of New York City.

Civil War (2024)

This is basically a Dorothy yellow brick road kind of story.  Also, something to do with the new replaces the old, the circle of life thing....
