The Diamond Thong: We Presume She Gets To Keep The Sample
A FEW NOTABLES FROM THE NEWS:
A diamond-crusted thong is the highlight of a Singapore lingerie fashion show. Reuters reports, "The Triumph Luxurious Diamond Thong had 518 brilliant-cut diamonds, totaling 30 carats, studded into the front of a black lace thong in a floral pattern. The skimpy underwear that left little to the imagination also had 27 white gold tassels hanging off it." The model swears it isn't uncomfortable at all but that it's hard to handwash. We thought surely the model would be able to keep the cloth, but apparently the snatch patch will be sent off for drycleaning and then put on display. Wasn't that what they did during the show?
The press keeps pointing out how much money Barack Obama has raised compared to Hillary Clinton, $131 million in the first three months of 2008 compared to $70 million for Clinton. All of which begs the question: Does the candidate with the most money win? Just further evidence that presidencies can be bought, but here's a safe bet: money won't buy Pennsylvanians.
Hillary Clinton proves she has a sense of humor on The Tonight Show, joking that she was almost late due to incoming sniper fire. Then she gave her "gayest look," -- she smiled!
Sooner or later, K-Fed's free ride at Britney's expense has to come to an end. TMZ has the goods on how much the professional hanger-on blew in Vegas during a recent 8-month stretch of time. Crabby sees a Britney-Kevin rematch in the future: how else is he gonna pay his bills? And if Daddy Jaime doesn't rekindle the love, he'll have to split his share of the doe with his ex-son-in-law. Gotta put a stop to that.
And more reason for the common folk to be bitter: The New York Times reports that getting into the Ivies is tougher than ever. For every 100 kids who applied to Harvard this year, seven were accepted. College guidance counselors were busy trying to rationalize rejection to top students. "“I know why it matters so much, and I also don’t understand why it matters so much,” said William M. Shain, dean of admissions and financial aid at Bowdoin. “Where we went to college does not set us up for success or keep us away from it.” Who is he kidding?
