I was noticing in the Sept VF that many monarchs came to the US for college. Are they here for the education, or just for the young firm American breasticles? I mean, did Crown Prince Haakon of Norway really need a BA in polisci from Berkeley, Or did Prince Jean of France, after receiving a master's in philosophy from the Sorbonne and a master's in law from the University of Law and Economics in Paris, really need an MBA from Azusa Pacific University?

Should Princess Madeleine of Sweden wish to continue her education in the US (after receiving her degree in art history from the University of Stockholm) I will be happy to provide private tutoring services, whatever the subject, gratis. Noblisse oblige indeed.

Thank you for being theonly one to reply to that post and not leave me hanging. And for being a fellow VF reader.

My sister's closest friend from prep school, who is quite a stunner I assure you, dated one Prince Bandar of Saudi Arabia while in college with him at one of them private New England liberal arts schools. This guy had like five houses in the states alone, and each had its own BMW. He rented a loft in the city with this girl for the summer that belonged to a semifamous sculpter, apparently bc the family looked down on his cohabitating like that. At the time I always asked my sister, why does she go out with Bandaid? He is so hideous. Given her family's relative money and renown in the publishing and fashion business, she didnt seem like someone who would cash in her chips. but that has to be the only explanation.

How come no Big Brother fans have said anything about the fact that Alison looks exactly like Sarah Chalke (from Roseanne and Scrubs)? Am I the only person who watches both Scrubs and BB4? I mean, it's really uncanny.

I don't see this. They may have similar facial structures and smiles, but there are a lot of blondes with strong cheekbones out there.

I do see the Alison/Heather thing, though. I wonder if Alison is as skilled.

If the whole Lewinsky affair showed us anything, dry cleaning alone doesn't get rid of protein stains. Something like Clorox 2 or another product that breaks down protein will have to be used in addition to the drycleaning to fully get the stain out.

Not to mention the Santorum.

1- the Lewinsky affair showed us only that if you are going to be bad, be all the way bad- none of this i'll let you blow me, but I won't shoot in your mouth,
2- this also answers yesterday's whole sex at host's home question- in proper homes you'd be given seperate accomadations if you are just dating, this is because the host knows you might screw if in the same room. given that, what's wrong with dirtying the place up a bit? what does a wet comforter say, but "we really felt at home here"? shouldn't the host be sort of glad, althought at first perhaps repulsed?

I cannot decide if Shape Shifter is:

a) a relatively new poster about whom we know nothing;
b) an old timer with a new identity. Say a LookingforMarket or a IAmSpecial; or
c) a non Penske sock.

Anyone? And thanks for playing in advance.

Modified (a). A relatively new poster, about whom we know several things.

He had a great entrance to the board, for which I am now giving mad props (Shape Shifter in the hizouse!), with the ghost in a jar sale on EBay. Hence the name.

One wonders how the family fortune is not already totally diluted a la the Kennedys and the Roosevelts, given the women the men in that family marry. Trash bimbos who think spending compulsively will make them classy.


But not to worry, PJ. If there is one thing that the Kaballah has taught me, its that what comes around goes around.

That show looks awful. Paris Hilton ain't bad lookin, but that other chick (I think she's Lionel Ritchie's daughter) looks like someone morphed Bill Joel's head onto a petite model's body. She looks like she has hyperthyroidism - like her eyes can be barely contained by her skull. Entertainment industry nepotism has gone too far when the even the ugly children of the semi-famous can get gigs on TV. In the old days, a celebrity child that unattractive would get a job working in production, where faces like hers belong.

This post was brought to you in part by Nextel.

Hey! That'll be 30 bucks please.

Uh, the Kennedy fortune is not all that diluted. I don't believe any Kennedys are missing any meals, or cocktails.

To be fair, the herion habit could be a contributing factor to the looks issue. Herion chic gone bad.

And it takes a lot of effort to dilute billions of dollars. Ask the rockefellers and their hundreds of spawn.

Heroin could only improve these useless drains on society. Or at the very least, it could make them more palatable to the rest of us.

Which reminds me, the new John O'Hara bio is now on sale. He's like early to mid twentieth century you.

And Tori Spelling was on tv for over ten years.

ANd I now heart Shape Shifter. Thanks for explaining him to me, ladies.
