Oh well. Whatever. Nevermind.
Of Course Paris Hilton’s House Is Easy To Rob
$3 million in clothes and jewelry taken from the likes of Paris Hilton, Lindsey Lohan, Audrina Patridge and Orlando Bloom. Rich kids robbing the houses of young Hollywood stars. The culprits dubbed the “Bling Ring” by the tabloids. A story made for E! TV and US Weekly. Nancy Jo Sales has the story of these dopey kids came up with the idea and how they justified it to themselves. The behind the scenes stuff about the E! reality show producers is fun too.
Also, this is kinda funny, from a Q&A Sales did about her profile;
How many times did they rob Paris Hilton?
Five times! It really introduces the question of whether they were more interested in stealing her things or pretending they were her friends—so much so that they could go into her house whenever they wanted. Nick said the first time they went to Paris’s house, the key was under the mat, so they took it with them when they left. The next time they came back, he said there was another key under the mat. Not only did she not notice she’d been robbed, she replaced the key under the front mat, according to Nick.
Come on Paris, you have to at least try.
David Frum On The Real Waterloo
David Frum writes a frank piece on healthcare passing from a conservative perspective.
Chris Cillizza Defies Parody
President Obama, in remarks last night after the House passed healthcare:
Now, it probably goes without saying that tonight’s vote will give rise to a frenzy of instant analysis. There will be tallies of Washington winners and losers, predictions about what it means for Democrats and Republicans, for my poll numbers, for my administration.
With the health care debate now over, the debate over what it will mean politically in both the 2010 midterms and the 2012 presidential fight can begin in earnest.
And, as is the Cillizza trademark, a “Winners & Losers” piece!
The House health care vote is in the books and the after-action analysis has begun.
The Fix, of course, is knee-deep (heck, we might be waist-deep) in sorting through the winners and losers from the health care debate that was.
Our first cut at those who soared and those who stumbled is below.
Washington political journalists, truly one of a kind.
Rich Eisen Runs The 40
The best part is towards the end when they do the computer visualizations of Eisen vs. other runners.
Give the guy props, he is running in a suit.
A Flood Of Videos Coming
My sister is at the Mozambique beach house for her spring break and I’m borrowing her computer while she’s gone. As such I get to enjoy the delight that is a one year old MacBook instead of Sylvia, my six year old PowerBook G4. Sylvia is so old she can no longer play YouTube videos, or really any online video, with out freezing. I’m just now catching up on a ton of videos I’ve been saving, so expect a flood of video posts here as I see the viral stuff that was cool two months ago.
Sweating It Out At The Finnish Embassy
In DC think tanks and organizations and embassies throw cocktail parties or happy hours. The Finnish Embassy is different. They know how to get down. Down and sweaty. The Fins, you see, host the exclusive Diplomatic Finnish Sauna Society of D.C., 150 members strong. That’s right, a sauna club. How baller is that? And the Finnish Embassy does it right, with a 190-degree sauna, not that pansy 130-degree Swedish kind (so the article tells me). I think I could get over my hatred of small-talk and networking if I was doing it in a sauna. Now I just need an invite.
