The GUILD 9-23-2002 Day ONe-- Emmy Thread Held Hostage

Posted on 09/23/2002 8:54:20 AM PDT by Hillary's Lovely Legs

In case you missed last night Emmy's thread, it was fabulous. Well the Emmy's were boring but the thread was great. Unfortunately, 2/3 of the way through, the moderators decided that the Emmy's weren't news and shoved the thread into the Cheesehole.

Since you all couldn't have possibly have heard anything about the Emmy's today in the newspaper or television, we will bring you some of the highlights.

Good morning everyone - things seem to be accelerating in our world. And yes, algore should get all the face time possible - this pud makes Howdy Doody look like Al Einstein.

A tremendous Tuesday is wished for all passing through.

Good Morning!

Speaking of face time you've got to see this pictorial of the bore! (in case you all haven't already) It's hysterical!

The life of Al Gore.

Watching FNC this morning, they've been running clips of albore when he was in FL recently and his speech yesterday. I noticed his hair is sort of grayish in the FL clips and much darker yesterday. I've been searching for pics of this trip to FL to compare here but so far no luck.

I think the bore is dying his hair, surprize, surprize.

I found the transcript of bore's speech. algore04 is so far the only place stupid enough to print this out (that I could find).

I hope they leave it up for future reference, I don't want to waste one of the tree's cousins to print it out.

Seriuos Question (Vanity)

Post:

I have a serious question for ths forum.

When a fly is approaching the ceiling, how far is from the ceiling when it decides to turn upside-down? I think someone should get a government grant to study this.

Here's some interesting stuff on the Harkin/Ganske race. Apparently a Harkin insider was able to get inside a Ganske meeting to tape conversations. Here is the URL for one of the articles:

And here is another article on the Harkin Wire tapping gig. Read about the Harkin camp's spin on how they obtained the transcripts of the wire tapped meeting.

Good grief, look at the size of that shirt - extra extra husky boy. What a dork. As Al's dye job has been mentioned, here's another hair-raising hair story. Liz Smith asked Rosie O'Donut why she got that new lopsided butch "do":

Rosie sighed. "You know, I knew I was about to go back into the hospital to have my hand operated on again. That is very inconvenient. It renders me incapable of doing a lot of things. I am also the mother of four kids. [Gag] I am terribly busy. I am involved in this thing with my magazine. I don't have a hairdresser and makeup every day as I did when I had my TV show. So I just said, 'Cut it off for now. I'll never be able to take care of it for the next few months!'"

The press breathlessly awaits the twins' birthday:

President Bush's twins are hatching one dilly of a hoedown for their 21st birthday on Nov. 25, we hear.

The White House won't comment. But a well-placed source says Jenna and Barbara are inviting a small group of friends to the Bush ranch in Crawford, Tex., for a party that could have been directed by John Ford.

"It's going to have a cowboy-and-Indian theme," says our spy.

A square dance is expected. Considering the twins will be of legal drinking age, the saloon will be open. (Barbara prefers vodka and cranberry, judging by the cocktail we saw her knock back Saturday at Vue.) [How did they know it had vodka in it?]

Dubya may want to make sure that the Western toggery is tamer than the ultra-sexy styles Barbara checked out on Sunday at Kimora Lee Simmons' Baby Phat show at Bryant Park. Mind you, the First Daughter of Fashion wouldn't have been mistaken for a schoolmarm: She wore a low-cut black tank top over a black leather skirt; her waist-length hair was drawn up in a ponytail. Sitting in the front row next to Tyson Beckford, she went largely unnoticed in the packed house, even as the presence of Wyclef Jean across the aisle created a near frenzy. Brittany Murphy, Vanessa Williams and Deion Sanders also got choice seats. NY Daily News.

And this, re the still-newlyweds:

Liza Minnelli and hubby David Gest swear they're still madly, deeply in love - despite that curious scene at Gino's on Lexington Ave. the other night. The couple was having dinner at the Italian restaurant when, according to a spy, "Liza stormed out. She was crying. Another man who was dining with them went after her and brought her back to the table."

The newlyweds' rep, Warren Cowan, confirms their security man did fetch Minnelli. But Cowan says she went outside, twice, simply because "she couldn't smoke inside." Cowan says that, if there were tears, their source was laughter: "She and David said they were having a fabulous time."

P.S. They're due to have a bigger blast on Sept. 30, when J Records honcho Clive Davis throws a party to celebrate the release of the CD "Liza's Back."

Guess who (or, who cares?):

One Emmy-winner, who shall remain nameless, was doubly rewarded. The actor had been telling friends his wife had recently had her breasts enhanced and that "she's hoping she'll heal by the awards ceremony." Guess she did; she was there at his side.

The WashPost tells the world exactly where Chelsea lives, just in case any nutcase or stalker wasn't quite sure:

• There's no mistaking whose daughter Chelsea Clinton is. New York nightlife maven Baird Jones, who lives in the same chic apartment building, London Terrace, where Clinton is staying with boyfriend Ian Klaus in Manhattan's -- where else? -- Chelsea neighborhood, sent us the following: "As I was leaving around 9 p.m. Sunday, I saw Chelsea with her hair tied back and Ian Klaus with his hair all curly and flowing, walking down the street. . . . There were quite a few people walking their dogs. . . . I was surprised that as Chelsea approached she and Ian were saying hi to everyone and also to all the dogs, even though it seemed that none of the people on the street were clicking on who she was. When they got to me, and I was completely looking down at the ground, they even said hi to me. I could see that as they made their way down the street they were saying hi to everyone they encountered, people, doormen, dogs. . . . Their excessive friendliness was not because they seemed stoned or drunk, just very lighthearted, much in love and obviously new to NYC." And maybe flexing those hereditary political muscles? link

Who says Albore is "stiff"?

If he runs again, we must make sure this photo is widely viewed.

CNN is trying to merge with ABC News. If the merger happens, CNN would own 2/3s, Disney the rest.

GRRRRRRRRRR

That being said, I am waiting for a new water heater since mine busted and flooded my basement.

...mine busted and flooded my basement.

I HATE it when that happens Good luck with it.

According to the New York Times, masculine chest hair is back in. (get a load of how these people think):

The male fitness magazine Men's Health, for example, hasn't featured a hairy-chested model on its cover since 1995...

It's fitting, then, that 30 years after Burt Reynolds posed au naturel for Cosmopolitan on a bearskin rug rivaled only in luxuriance by the Bandit's own magnificent coat, the wheel of fashion appears to have turned full circle. At the recent fall fashion shows, the pasty, snake-hipped rent boys and dolphin-smooth himbos -- who have sulked, preened and pouted their way down international catwalks for so many seasons [Eeeeeeew!]-- were, if not entirely replaced, at least upstaged. The new models were less pretty -- older, hairier -- grown-up men, in fact. In the front row, this rebirth of butch was attributed to Sept. 11 and the ensuing images of heroic firefighters, police officers and rescue workers that were beamed around the world. LINK

The NYT offers up their idea of a "hirsute" man
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Can't hold a candle to this 30-year-old image of a man's man

The LightweightPeabrains are at it again. Question: what did we ever do to them, and why do they obsess about it? (And who is this pathetic loser?)

The guild is just a bunch of dessicated debutantes drearily droning dumb daily directives to dullards....
