Quickies!: Ellen Smacks Down Sarah Palin On Gay Marriage
Ritchie Rebounds With A Redhead
Looks like Guy Ritchie has already gotten his rebound. So much for our suggestions — the director has decided to dip his ink in the company pool. Ritchie’s been seen canoodling with the leading lady from his forthcoming film, “Sherlock Holmes,” Kelly Reilly. How cheap! Seriously, can’t he shag someone who isn’t on the payroll?! Although, he was on Madonna’s for seven years…one would have thought he’d learned his lesson. It’s elementary, my dear Guy. [LA Times]
San Francisco Voters To Decide Whether To Decriminalize Prostitution
It’s easy to forget with a Presidential election as exciting as this one that there are actually many, many, many people and bills on the ballot November 4th besides Barack Obama and John McCain. One of the issues that got our attention early is Proposition K, a San Francisco proposal that would decriminalize prostitution in the city. If passed, the law would forbid local authorities from investigating, arresting or prosecuting anyone for selling sex. The ballot measure still technically would not legalize prostitution since state law still prohibits it, but Proposition K would eliminate the power of local law enforcement officials to go after prostitutes. The local Democratic Party has endorsed the measure, but the majority of actual local government officials are opposed. A similar measure in Berkeley lost in 2006 — while San Francisco is typically a liberal-leaning city, it’s pretty up in the air as to whether this Proposition will pass with voters. If it does, SF will become the first major U.S. city to decriminalize sex work. With that in mind, vote in our poll! [The Huffington Post] Keep reading »
If Sarah Palin Shopped For Her Campaign Clothes At Walmart…
Politico reported that the Republican National Committee has spent more than $150,000 on clothes and accessories for Sarah Palin and her family since she became the party’s vice presidential candidate in late August. This handsome allowance included spending sprees worth $49,425.75 at Saks Fifth Avenue, $75,062.63 at Neiman Marcus, and $4716.40 on hair and makeup. We’re not sure why America’s favorite model hockey mom is spending so much on her wardrobe when she could be shopping for similar styles at strip malls. Below, we show her how to get the same looks for less. Keep reading »
Crave: Ebelskiver Stuffed Pancake Pan
I recently registered at Williams-Sonoma for the typical stuff any person needs—cookie sheets, bagel cutter, grapefruit spoons (hey, I’m a fan of citrus). But whenever the catalog arrives in the mail, I always look longingly at the pages, wishing my registry was a bit more on the adventurous side. The one appliance I’m borderline obsessed with is this “pancake” pan—but they’re not really pancakes. They’re actually ebelskiver, a traditional Danish puffed pancake filled with jelly, fruit or cheese. They look so ridiculously easy to make, and the finished product looks like a work of edible art. But instead of the other (dare I say boring?) fillings, I plan on stuffing them with Nutella and peanut butter. Yum. [$40, Williams-Sonoma] Keep reading »
The Star Trek Movie Cast: Pretty Boys, Goofy Scotsman, & The Perfect Spock
Simcha and Amelia have not kept their love for “Star Trek” a secret on this blog. That’s why they were the perfect people to review the casting for the upcoming “Star Trek” prequel feature film, in which the main characters have been recast with younger, shinier new actors. Do they approve? Find out, after the jump… Keep reading »
Crimson Chronicles: How I Came To Love Red Hair
I was born a redhead, but these days when people ask if my hair is natural I’m not sure the honest answer is still ‘yes.’ I started dying it shortly before my thirtieth birthday when my once fiery locks began fading a sort of washed-out auburn shade. At first, I was in denial about this sad sign of aging. I convinced myself it was seasonal, as my hair always darkened a bit in the winter, but when summer rolled around and my hair was still drab, I had to face the fact that youth wasn’t the only thing time was robbing me of; it was also trying to steal my identity.
Last Chance To Win A Tim Gunn Bobblehead!
Congrats to Deirdre from New Jersey who won yesterday’s Tim Gunn Bobblehead sweepstakes. Oh, and watch the above clip from “Tim Gunn’s Guide to Style.” My favorite line: “I don’t want to sound unkind, but you look like your twin brother.” Where does he come up with these one-liners? Keep reading »

Comment That Should Get Trademarked
“Jocelyn Nubel” from “5 Signs You’re Dating Someone Emotionally Stupid”
Pay attention Library of Congress, because here comes some creative genius:
“I once told a particularly emo-tarded exboyfriend, “I NO LONGER HAVE THE PATIENCE TO PUSH YOU AROUND IN YOUR EMOTIONAL WHEELCHAIR!!! Sigh. It felt so, so good.”
That clever cutie is so good at communication that she not only stuck it to her ex-boyfriend, she took the terminology to a whole new level of slang. She popped an emotional wheelie! Keep reading »
