    Definitely the first time "soulful" and "Olivia Palermo" were used in the same paragraph. Perhaps universe.

    "It's also interesting how she's holding her purse." Becuase if they were really committed, he would be holding her fucking purse, amirite? Emmy Rossum is really hot and, like, 13 years old (at least as compared to Adam). He should carry her whole Hannah Montana backpack and lunch cooler combo for her.

    This reminds me of the groundbreaking study by the team of Drs. Ben and Eileen Dover which stated conclusively that Liberace's flashy, effeminate demeanor was a mask for the ruggedly brooding Alpha male he really was.

    Ivanka Trump was in my yoga class today at 1 p.m. with her new husband. Very tall and beautiful in person. Not very good at yoga; she left half an hour into class.

    For real: Donald Trump Jr. recently agreed to be a "celebrity spokesperson" for my shitty company. I would reveal the name of the company, but that would cost me my unemployment if they fired me. All I'll say is that if you were to search for it, you'd see the word "scam" quite a bit. It's embarassing, but I can't afford to quit.

    People who impugn Trump's business credentials are ridiculous. To put it simply, if a man owns 100 companies, 90 of which are doing well and 10 of which fail, he is doing pretty damn well for himself. Yet every time one of Trump's business ventures goes under, people like Rosie O'Donnell think it means that he is personally bankrupt. Um, no.

    @Fuzzy Dunlop: the successes that Trump has had (chiefly the Apprentice and getting paid to put his name on buildings he didn't own or build) have always been from his celebrity, not his business success. Basically, his business plan from the start was:

    1. Do the sort of thing business guys do: buy and sell things.
    2. Promote myself as someone with amazing super business talents.
    3. ???
    4. Profit!!

    It turns out (3) is "People are gullible and will believe (2), which means I can sell my name."

    @large orange: It's true that he didn't build/develop many of the properties with his name on them, but that's not the case for all of them. In any event, according to Wikipedia (which can never be wrong), Forbes valued his personal wealth at $3 billion. So there's something to his business plan, whatever it is. I don't think its fair to simply tar the guy as a high-class Spencer Pratt.

    @Fuzzy Dunlop: Everyone would agree that Daddy Trump is successful if "successful" means "making a lot of money." (Which it does!)

    I think the reason he chaps so many people's asses is that his success is based on his self-marketing as a business genius. Which he is not, except in the very limited field of self-marketing.

    People who like Trump say "hey, if that's what it takes to play the game and win." People who dislike him say "he's still a wildly deceptive guy who exaggerates his own accomplishments in order to take money from people who want to be rich like he is."

    Both are correct!

    Correct as always, Bookish. The standard M.O. is that he packages a deal and adds his name. But this doesn't mean that he owns controlling interest. He ACTS like the does and many journalists accept this as fact because -- well, because he has a TV show.
