Warning: Anna Nicole Smith free zone
Just returned from the Jerry Stiller, Anne Meara Star Ceremony
on Hollywood’s walk of fame with son Ben Stiller doing the honors
as guest speaker. Ben’s dad is, of course, best known as the father
of George Castanza on the Seinfeld show and the cantankerous
basement dwelling father on King of Queens. His real life wife
Meara is not as well known but you would recognize her from her
many film and television stints. I know them best as Stiller and
Meara when they appeared more times than any comedy team on the
1950s Ed Sullivan show. They were always my favorite comedians
because they argued like my folks except they were funny.

Television in the old days was great in that we did not have the choice to be stupid and just watch what we liked. You couldn’t just watch MTV or ESPN or porn because there were only three channels. So in order to see the Beatles or Ferlin Husky on the Ed Sullivan show you were also exposed to opera, ballet, broadway shows and stand up comedians who were funnier than hell without having to be filthy. Filthy is easy and most comedians are lazy so they take the easy way out and the sad part is they have an audience who is just as lazy. I’m glad I grew up when television exposed me to many genres of entertainment. Now I are more sophisticated and got’s culture.
Mr. Venzykulu. Thought she stopped writing but in my mail box a letter from that little old lady in K Mart tennis shoes and blue hair. “Mr. Venzykulu don’t you know this is the 20th Century but you still write like a sexist pig. Don’t you know you hurt our new District Attorney’s feelings when you comment about her four aye chee waa waa legs rather than her brain”?
Well, first of all, you old bag this is the 21st Century and second of all, I suggest you cut back on the dye job because you’re really losing it.
I think San Benito County District Attorney Hooper is intelligent enough to know when she is receiving a compliment. Aside from that, as a former political science major, I have a theory that has never been proven wrong. In political wins the one with the best looking legs wins. Period. You thought Kerry and Gore were the most intelligent? Maybe they were but just picture what those legs must look like. In Hollister you can check my scientific fact easily. Compare winner Pat Loe’s legs with loser Richard Place’s legs. In defense of Richard Place he is a good dancer and better kisser. Then there is Reb Monaco who beat out my former boss Tracie Cone in the other race for supervisor. Tracie has great gams but have you ever seen Monaco’s? Sorry, but I predicted his win before Tracie could cry foul. Check out my theory, no, my Political Science fact. Who won who lost on the Hollister city council? It can be hilarious but true.
Wow! When I asked is Flapjacks still serving up the 4 aye chee waa waa food I got lots of calls saying, if anything, even better than ever. Aye chee waa waa! 5 aye chee waa waa’s?
Do you think the San Francisco mayor would be in the political trouble he is in if he had slept with him instead of her? Me neither.
Politics can be more entertaining than anything here in Hollywood. Take your Ken Gimelli. Please. He is quoted in the 50 cent Lance “I thought it wouldn’t hurt for people to listen, but they didn’t get that chance”. This is in reference to the no vote on S where he spent a wad in trying to do good for the community. Huh?
According to the same paper, they spent $50 per voter while Machado’s Marauders spent $2 per voter to defeat yet another growth scheme. But wait, I did the math and per actual vote for they spent $354 per voter. While the winners spent $1.57. I think next time, and there will be a next time, that Ken should take that $354 and treat each voter to dinner, a night at a hotel, and a hooker. Hell even Gordon would probably change his vote.
Loved the front page news of something I have known for years. McDonald’s coffee is better than Starbucks and a hell of a lot cheaper. I have never understood people who start their day $5 in the hole when they can make coffee at home.
Said hello to Rip Taylor on Hollywood Boulevard and sure enough he set off this gadget that shoots more confetti than Hillary’s excuse on why she voted for the war. Aye chee waa waa!
