    I think you mean "hawk", not "hock".
    Gawker has very few problems with homophobes, but many with homophones.

    Pee Wee's Twitter would be fun. He's doing a series of shows in LA this fall where he's reunited much of the Pee Wee's Playhouse cast.

    Pete Rose never bet against his own team. He was suspended for betting on his own team to win which is still against the rules. Then again I guess that's the point of this article...even the writer can't get the facts straight. It appears the only way to get reinstated to a professional sports team is to make an apology on Oprah or Larry King or 20/20 after less heinous crimes than betting on your own team to win like killing dogs, or shooting people or yourself or running over a cop or doing sterioids.

    New York Social Diary had a tribute up on Tuesday night. At that point, DPC mentioned that Dunne has been given "last rites". Also that his first job in television was on the Howdy Doody Show. I am not kidding!

    I saw Gore last Thursday at an opening in the U.B.S. bldg., the same one Chuck Close attended. Gore looked great, v robust wearing Chucks and shorts. All Gawkers must think the same cos, my mind went to Gore when I heard the Dunne news. So glad I saw him last week.

    I am really going to miss him. No one name-dropped and shamelessly starfucked like he did. His coverage of high profile justice was incredibly enthralling. Particularly moving was the diary regarding his daughter's murderer's sham trial.

    @MissPeacock: And back in those days domestic violence, and the lack of decent prosecution against it, wasn't taken so seriously as it is now. His article was important in its time and I think created a consciousness of the problem, and not just within the privileged group of Vanity Fair readers. If he went a bit overboard over the years in his coverage of murders, you could see where it came from. Poor lovely Dominique.

    They were trying to avoid "Farrah syndrome" with a bigger name dying the same day. Thankfully, Dominick had the good taste to refuse Ryan O'Neal's proposal.

    You'd think his family would appreciate the fact that Dominick, the loveable name-dropper, would have appreciated having his name mentioned right alongside Teddy Kennedy's.

    Man. Is it me or does it seem like there is a non-stop parade of folks dying in the past year or so? It's going to be non-stop death for the next 25 years as we begin to lose all of the boomers, huh?
