Sporadically, there's a feature on AOL which shows the mansions and the estates, the Malibu Beach homes and the NYC penthouse condos that are up for sale. Every week there's more and more appearing on the market.

Big names, folks, big names. They're selling their second homes, too. Some are quietly being evicted.

It sucks to be cash-starved. And because appearances have to be kept up to get future roles, the millions invested in a manor are desperately needed. So what's a star to do?

The recession is hitting million-dollar sports figures both former and present, also.

Nobody's buying, so their asking prices keep coming down, many being reduced to a sum way under what they paid for the property.

As Rahm Emanuel said out of the Saul Alinsky RULES FOR RADICALS playbook....

“Don’t let a good crisis go to waste.”

This is our chance to permanently kill hippie liberal editors and newspapers and lib Hollyweirdos who think that what they do can change the world.

We pay $7 for a ticket plus $20 bucks for popcorn, soda and twizzlers. Just act and entertain us you douchebags.

Indeed.

A lot of entertainment stars are no longer keeping homes on both coasts, instead keeping one house and staying at a higher-end hotel or renting an apartment on longer stays on the other coast. For example, Jack Nicholson still lives in those two attached houses in the Bel Air development he bought way back in the 1970’s!
