| Halle Berry, Bruce Willis and Giovani Ribisi are currently shooting a movie in Manhattan called Perfect Stranger. They were shooting on my block of West 10th st. last night. A production assistant told me the movie, a thriller, was pretty bad. |
Yes, we all had to wend our way through that mess to get to chorus rehearsal at the school last night. Alas, none of us got to see Halle Berry.

So non-accredited is good, right?
And "there is no need to falsely your claims". Oh, good.
Sign me up! (I actually applied for a Masters degree, with my fake name of "Spamela Killspammers," and said I've been shutting down fuckwits like them for seventeen years. Which is true.)
That site involves a lot of work for a lousy degree. The places that email me only require a credit card number.
If only one could get the degree, the larger penis and supply of Viagra from the same source. One-stop spam.

Some of us don't want a larger penis.
I do, of course, but not everyone's a size queen.
I don't want any of those things, regardless of whether I might need them or not.

Who wants plastic, dawl?
And from our "Nice Work If You Can Get It" files: CIA employee arrested for burglaries: caught with over 1000 pairs of women's panties.
As bad as things may be for us, just imagine the poor slob who actually replies to that spam or, heaven forfend, buys something. I shudder to think of the spam that will come from that!

The size issue is relative, isn't it? You could have surgery to tighten you up so that certain small members would seem relatively larger. That way you avoid the plastic. Just sayin'.

Everybody knows the great sexual scandal known as "Klinton-Levinsky".
After the relations like this Klintons popularity raised a lot!
It is a natural phenomenon, because Bill as a real man in order not to
shame himself when he was with Monica regularly used Voagra.
What happened you see. His political figure became more bright and more attractive.
It is very important for a man to be respected as a man!

The Tour of California, a new multi-stage bicycle race, has Amgen - the maker of EPO - as its title sponsor.

My brother-in-law flew down to Tampa last week on Jet Blue. Sitting next to him was Mariano Rivera (Yankees closer, for those of you non-baseball fans. Arguably the best closer in baseball) who was traveling with the rest of his family.

uh, just came back from the local Japanese place with a carton of "mixed simmered vegetables", containing carrots and mushrooms and root vegetables and . . . tongue. A big ole piece of tongue.
What kind of tongue? 
mooooo, I think. Too small for duck tongue and it tasted like cow. I hope it was cow because the alternatives are upsetting.
You ate it? I hope you saved some for the dna test.
over on espn's nba shootaround show there is a re-enactment in progress of the recent exchange of pleasantries between phil jackson and mark cuban--with greg anthony as phil jackson and tim legler as mark cuban.
One of those little Manhattan moments: I was reading on the subway Friday morning when an odd movement caught the corner of my eye. It was a single green grape, rolling with apparent purpose down the center of the car. Each passenger it passed looked up until everyone was watching the grape's steady progress. When it rolled to a stop at the far door, we all looked at each other and laughed.

Stopped for a light. The two cars side by side in front of me each had personalized plates. From the left--"DEEP JOY"* and "ANKSB2G". Juxtapose/do you suppose?
*In California fashion, this actually read "DEEP J[heart]Y."

My best friend has been seeing a nutritionist for over a year. This is not necessarily a bad thing, since she previously existed on cappucino,cupcakes,champagne and the leftovers of her child's meals.
However, she is now 8 1/2 months pregnant and when I had dinner with her last night she was all atwitter because the nutritionist had scolded her for gaining 3 1/2 pounds in the past week. Hello??

Parked right next to me, with my "I [heart] FARMS" was an SUV with "GOTDIRT."
I don't know if it was here or at Readerville that someone posted the license tag for a Mini Cooper:

Salads with truffle shavings on West 38th St. 
In the future, everyone will enjoy expensive luxuries for fifteen minutes. 
I figured out why there are always tables available at Sea Grill. According to Open Table, it's not in the Rockefeller Center at all. Midtown West, apparently. If you search Rock Center restaurants on OT, you don't search Sea Grill.
Ha. Seriously, the restaurant needs to to fix that.

There's going to be a new, off-broadway musical version of Siddhartha called

OK, I made up the exclamation point, but the rest of it is true.

Last month I wrote checks for a credit card bill and for professional insurance. I must have placed them in the wrong envelopes which I only discovered recently. Totally different payees (Chase vs. Marsh-Seabury and Smith) yet they both managed to pay the wrong check into their bank accounts. Is there any point in writing in a name?

No you're not.
I do recommend it. Say goodbye to envelopes and stamps and keeping a tally of which check went where (if you do
).
