welcome back, comrade

19 years is a long time to be asleep... or awake for that matter.

From the Cable News Network:

A 65-year-old railwayman who fell into a coma following an accident in communist Poland regained consciousness 19 years later to find democracy and a market economy, Polish media reported on Saturday...

..."When I went into a coma there was only tea and vinegar in the shops, meat was rationed and huge petrol lines were everywhere," Grzebski told TVN24, describing his recollections of the communist system's economic collapse.

"Now I see people on the streets with cell phones and there are so many goods in the shops it makes my head spin."

Yeah we tease him a lot cause we’ve got him on the spot,
Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back, welcome back.

Somewhere Carrie Bradshaw is squealing... and Mr. Big isn't involved. Get your mind out of the gutter, gurl.

Manolo Blahnik launched his website and held a party to welcome in the the 90s. Somehow this is meaningful and important.

What's neither meaningful nor important is how much I hate "flash"y websites that take over valuable full-screen real estate better left to porn. They are impossible to navigate or even look at whatever it is the fuck they are selling. Take Hugo Boss par exahmpluh. Yeah!

JUST SHOW ME THE FUCKING CLOTHES ALREADY SO I CAN GET ON WITH MY LIFE.

Ok.

Whew.

I need a drink.

Who is this Cisco Adler and why am I so intrigued by his naughty bits?

Hee hee...

And who the fuck is Mischa Barton for that matter? I only clicked this story cuz I heard somebody wasn't mess up on mushrooms. Uh huh.

From da DailyNews:

Barton had "an allergic reaction" after combining antibiotics (which she was taking for bronchitis) with booze, according to her publicist, who vouches that her client was not among guests said to have been munching mushrooms.

Seems American Idol producer, industry legend and all around egotistical bastard, Clive Davis, can't stand Miss Independent doing her thing her way and making millions for his record label and can't resist an opportunity to trash his biggest selling artist.

Page Six whispers:

"Kelly wanted to make a deeply personal record. Here's an artist who didn't demand more money, who handed in her record on time in January, after making him millions, and now he rips her? The music business is collapsing, and this is why. They won't let people put out their real music. This is about his huge ego."

White House officially recognizes legal status of gay couples and parents

Vice President Dick Cheney and his wife, Lynne Cheney, welcomed their sixth grandchild, Samuel David Cheney, Wednesday, May 23, 2007. He weighed 8 lbs., 6 oz and was born at 9:46 a.m. at Sibley Hospital in Washington, D.C. His parents are the Cheneys’ daughter Mary, and her partner, Heather Poe.

Congratulations to the Cheneys for their latest addition and The White House, I guess, for joining the human race.

Lohan Reportedly Checking Back Into Rehab

Star Seen Passed Out in Car Just Days After Crash

It was a Memorial Day weekend that Lindsay Lohan would most likely like to forget, as the hard-partying Hollywood star was involved in a DUI car crash, and then less than two days later, was photographed apparently passed out in the passenger seat of her friend's car.

She's gonna need a new D&G shovel...check the gift bags!

Update: Britney shows what bottom looks like.

support a soldier, bring him home

Happy Memorial Day.

smells like teen spirit

She's like, so whatever.

You can't please everybody all the time, so instead of trying, I say whatever. Whatever, whatever.

Hey! Whatever.

I met the queen of whatever, drank with the Irish and smoked with the hippies, moved with the shakers. Wouldn't kiss all the asses that they told me to.

Remember? Whatever. It seems like forever ago.

Well, whatever, nevermind.
