Ron Jeremy? Is that who that guy is? GROSS! He does an infomercial for some kind of herbal male enhancement product. I came across his little perverted show late one night. The people who were with him were absolute freaks, of the Jerry Springer/Howard Stern/Jenny Jones variety. I should have guessed his occupation.

" Tickets cost $25 with the money going to Reno's campaign."

Money goes to the Reno campaign? But what has she done for the global AIDS problem? and Haiti?

WOW! So much to catch up today! I am 5'11'' so I don't wear heals too often (I feel like a drag queen), but I wanted to contribute to Shoe Day and I found these over at nordstrom.com


They have ankle straps, which I am normally against, but they seem to work great on these shoes! I just love them, they look straight out of the 40's or 50's. They look like something I would expect Lucy to wear.

Has anyone ever heard of viviscal before? It's supposed to help your hair grow, but it's fairly pricey.

How did that porn king get on our nice, wholesome shoe thread? Be gone, smutmeister! Back on topic:

"Off-the-wall," "hip," trendy," "funky" and "wild" are often used to describe Steve Madden footwear. Whatever the description, young women are flocking into stores to acquire the company's leopard-print pumps, zebra-print loafers, seafoam sandals, even clunky satin-trimmed prom shoes. Steve Madden's 40-plus styles of shoes have an average retail price of $65.

Mr. Madden said the store appeals predominantly to "Generation Y" -- namely, "anyone who listens to the Spice Girls." When Chelsea Clinton headed off last year to Stanford University for her first year of college, she took several pairs of Steve Madden shoes along. According to Ms. Camen, the Secret Service asked that the Montgomery Mall, Bethesda, Md., store be closed one day last August so Chelsea could shop with her mother. Ms. Camen said Hillary Clinton reportedly vetoed a pair of Steve Madden shoes Chelsea wanted because she thought the heels were too high, but Chelsea persisted and bought them the next day. link.

My computer monitor is about to bite the dust. The screen keeps going black. I'm going to talk with my son about assisting me in ordering a new computer tomorrow.

I may, or may not be here. I'm looking thru the closets for a compatible monitor,,, there surely is one aroundhere somewhere.

Oh Granny! I had a laptop screen bite the dust last week. That is truly frustrating, isn't it? It was an old laptop but I loved it because it was really thin and light weight. Oh well.

Hope your quest for a monitor is successful.

I second the nomination for Clark's sandals. I have many pairs and styles. I have tried the Keds leather tennies but did not have good luck with them.

I love W, I love the military and I love the flag. And here is a great picture including all three....

U.S. President George W. Bush waves to soldiers at Fort Drum, New York, July 19, 2002. Bush appeared before thousands of soldiers from the Army's 10th Mountain Division here to push Congress to quickly approve his proposed increase in U.S. defense spending, including a pay raise for troops. Troops from Fort Drum were among the first Army units to be deployed overseas after the attacks on September 11. (Kevin Lamarque/Reuters) [Mail to Friend]

Hillary, Dem shout it out at Capitol

WASHINGTON - Sen. Hillary Clinton got into a closed-door shouting match in the Capitol yesterday with the top Democratic backer of campaign finance reform, sources told the Daily News. Clinton (D-N.Y.) faced off with Sen. Russ Feingold (D-Wis.) during a luncheon discussion of a landmark fund-raising law set to take effect Nov. 6. When Feingold dismissed warnings that senators could face legal challenges on unpredictable grounds under the new law, Clinton exploded. "Russ, live in the real world," a tight-faced Clinton shouted at Feingold, sources said.(snip)

It was also suggested that political events, like former President Bill Clinton's infamous White House coffees for big donors, could theoretically be criminalized under the new law. The coffees were investigated by Congress and the Justice Department, but no charges were filed.(snip)

Sources paraphrased Clinton as saying she spoke from experience - eight years as Bill Clinton's First Lady in a White House beset with controversy and federal investigations - when she warned that "political adversaries" would make senators' lives hell.

Hi, nice to see you here! (To everyone else - hacksaw and I freeped Janet Reno a couple years ago when she gave a graduation address at a nearby college, so please give him a big welcome).
