Who's Going to Hell This Week?

Helen


You never know who's going to trade their soul away or what they're going to get for it unless you're Helen A. Handbasket, ex-executive chief in charge of operations for the burning flames of hellfire. Who are her sources? Wouldn't you like to know?

WHO'S GOING TO HELL THIS WEEK?
August 13, 2001
Gary Condit won't quit and neither will I. This week has seen a lot of counter advertising. Del Taco's ads trying to convince us they hire nothing but morons is helping push the Faith-Based Missile Defense Program through both houses of congress, and Ben & Jerry's search for "Citizen Cool" is being countered by a search for "Citizen Sin," only it's not part of an ad campaign, it's for real. Be on the look-out for professional shoppers who really work for the company.
- Helen -
10. 100 child pornographers exposed a global FBI investigation ring resulting in no FBI arrests.
9. A coalition of black comedians is protesting the census report stating that the black population of the U.S. has only seen "dramatic" growth.
8. Japan's Takara Co Ltd. is releasing a gadget that translates dog barks into 200 words like "happy", "fun", "annoyed," "frustrated" and "how come humans don't lick themselves?"
7. The U.S. Postal Service unveiled a Lucille Ball stamp, but I'd rather lick Anne Heche.
6. Why did Whitney Houston take Bobby Brown to the hospital for "dehydration?" How else could Britain restore home rule in Northern Ireland?
5. Britain has opened the world's first stem cell bank and David Crosby has volunteered to make the first deposit.
4. Will supermodel Rhea Durham leave Stephen Dorff for Mark Wahlberg? Not if Cardinal Richelieu has anything to say about it.
3. The restaurant Benihana is sponsoring PETA's annual award show, proving once again that it's ethical to eat animals as long as they're sliced and cooked right in front of you.
2. Why did Macy Gray flub the words to the National Anthem? So Drew Carey could survive his angioplasty. Way to go Macy! And the number one person going to hell this week?
1. What do Beelzebub and the State of California have in common? Excess energy.
Personal to the Taliban: Keep up the good work. Soon the whole world will think that all Muslims are nuts.
Personal to Ben Affleck: Who says you can't keep pitching Sam Adams beer while in rehab?
Arithmetic from Hell
The 20th anniversary of the PC times 118 dead crew members on the Kursk plus an 8-year-old boy who survived a shark attack divided by 8 officers charged for falsifying the safety record of the Osprey minus the Oakland Athletics 11th straight victory plus $45.1 million made by "American Pie 2" times Richard Nixon minus intelligence equals George W. Bush plus the number of days Mariah Carey spends in the hospital times the 40th anniversary of the building of the Berlin Wall minus 32 killed in a bus accident in China divided by 15 anti-missile protesters facing felony charges in America plus $34,567 America paid China for allowing us to park our Navy plane there last spring.

More Musings From The ShadowCatcher

The ShadowCatcher
 Hey Rube!

Motor Bikes and Motor Boats, dirty jokes and bearded goats, different strokes for 
different folks.~~~~

Tattooed ladies and crying babies, rings on her fingers and bells on her toes, 
rings in her nipples and rings in her nose, and she shall have music wherever she 
goes..~~~~

We are poor little lambs who have lost our way. ba! ba! ba!  Name your poison, 
wine, beer or gin, get the hell out of here woman, can't you see the rotten mood  
I'm in?

So much sin, little lead soldiers and all of them dead, & nobody listened to what 
I said. And out on the dance-floor, a tall thin man waltzes with a short fat lady, 
she's pretty but a little shady.  Hey Rube!, now that's the cry of alarm there in 
the Circus, where the Clowns run around in their nightgowns, just like "Wee Willie 
Winkie". 

Now none of you will believe the life that I've led, I can hardly believe it myself, 
but that don't bother me, I know what I've done. I've dated famous movie stars, and 
danced the Tango in Rio, and rode on a Streetcar named Desire. Ok, call me a liar,
a bird on a wire, but I'm not for hire, and there's so much bull shit going around, 
and nobody wants to hear the truth because nobody would know it, if they heard it, 
if there is such a truth. ha!
                                                   
					Regards

From USA Today

Jeannie Williams in USA Today reports that Carson Daly's ex, Tara Reid, on her 
American Pie2 promotional rounds noted that her role in this installment is smaller  
than in the first hit.  But she realizes that's the case with all the girls, except 
Alyson Hannigan (Michelle). 

Pie 2 has its icky moments, including an episode with super glue that I won't go 
into. "Some of it's icky," agrees Reid, "but even in real life, things that are kind 
of icky we all kind of like! With the ickiness comes an innocence; that's what makes 
it acceptable." Of the faux lesbian scene, she says, "It's hysterical!"

Reid also thought it was "hysterical" that President Bush's twins, Jenna and Barbara, 
19, were at a party last week for Pie star Jason Biggs.

"They're a little wild, these ones, compared to Chelsea (Clinton); she was like the 
perfect daughter. They're more interesting, more normal. They're human. They'd fit 
in more with our cast!"

Jon Stewart 'Expresses' Himself

jon stewart

Page 6 is reporting " FOR a nice guy, "Daily Show" host Jon Stewart sounds like one 
tough taskmaster. According to a source, when three writers recently left the Comedy 
Central show, Stewart tore into his remaining writing staff at a closed-door meeting. 
"He was yelling at them, calling them a bunch of bleepheads and dilettantes," said 
the source. 

Stewart admitted he might have been a bit hot-headed that afternoon, but added 
that he was just expressing himself. "It was more of an encounter group than a 
staff meeting," he tells PAGE SIX's Ian Spiegelman. "I played the bongos and 
wrote a poem about my feelings. We did a sun dance."  

The latest eruption came after writer Alison Silverman left the show to join "Late 
Night with Conan O'Brien" and the writing team neglected to invite "Daily Show" head 
scribe Ben Carlin to Silverman's going away party. 

In addition to Silverman, writers Dan Goor and Charlie Grandy also have left "The 
Daily Show" and are heading for "Saturday Night Live," but Stewart said he believed 
there were no hard feelings. 

The funnyman then asked for our assistance in furthering his success: 

"I need to run over a bunch of people in my SUV. Can I get a Jonny-mobile? Can we 
work that out with PAGE SIX? Hey," he laughed, "if I ever go into rehab, I'm going 
to call you first."

SAG Elections Heat Up

It's 'Rhoda' vs. 'Short Stuff'

SAG Election
Heating Up




Melissa Gilbert


Valerie Harper


The campaign for the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) presidency has heated up with 
candidate Melissa Gilbert, a former child star on ``Little House on the Prairie,'' 
blasting retiring boss William Daniels and rival candidate Valerie Harper.

Mrs. Boxleitner says SAG is failing actors. Too weakened by mismanagement, too 
preoccupied with internal power struggles, the leadership is neglecting issues 
that have a profound effect on the well-being of members.''

The statement represents the first serious shot in the campaign to succeed Daniels, 
who has endorsed former ``Rhoda'' star Harper, as head of the 98,000-member union. 
Board members Eugene Boggs and Angeltompkins are also seeking the presidency; 
voting is set for the last three weeks of October.

Gilbert said SAG should focus on three basic issues: halting ``runaway'' 
production by producers to cheaper locales overseas; residual payments; and 
respect for members, staff and allies.

Kathie Lee Who?

How Many Nannies?

kl
Jeannette Walls of MSNBC is reporting...Kathie Lee Gifford has said that one 
reason she quit her talk show is that she wanted to spend more time with her 
children. That's ironic, a source tells the Scoop, because Gifford has "at least 
four nannies, maybe five." Gifford's spokeswoman angrily denied that Gifford has 
four nannies, but declined to say exactly how many she has.
