    In reply to Tiger Woods, Media Equally Shady
    "Tiger's camp approached us, and was happy that Tiger and Roy had a previous relationship," she said.

    Didn't Tiger bite Roy in Vegas a few years ago?

    There was long an (alleged) rumor that the Enquirer and AMI's other gossip rags went easy on Arnold Schwarzenegger's spicy (and allegedly gropey) past when he was running for governor of California in exchange for keeping him involved with the company's muscle magazines. Synergy!

    When you can't trust the journalistic standards of the publisher of Weekly World News, who can you trust?

    So. Tiger and AMI were in bed together.

    Well, you just knew some kind of diabolical media dealings were happening. As much as Le Tigre likes to fuck it's almost like he damned near dared the media to find all his famewhoring fuck-holes and places he liked to take them, pics of his dong, his vicodin, his lame "daddy long stroke" voicemails...sheesh, I've never heard of anyone poorer at subterfuge. It's like he was Ron Jeremy doing his biz during the dinner hour at the Russian Tea Room and nobody noticed a damnable thing.

    In reply to Conde Nast's Subsistence-Level Holiday Gift
    I'm glad to have ever gotten anything. In my career at the Daily News I got from the first year to my last, absolutely nothing.

    This year I actually got two (!) items with a combined value of perhaps just over $20.

    After a prolonged famine, having some bones to boil into stock is better than nothing. Merry Recession to all!

    In reply to Conde Nast's Subsistence-Level Holiday Gift
    My company makes everyone write letters to 'Santa' and from those submitted, 6 people will be selected and get the thing they wrote for (has to be under $100).
    I still don't know if they draw the names, or pick the letters they liked the best.
    Needless to say, in the 4 years I've worked there I've come home empty handed.

    Bloomy is doing radio promos for the all-news AM station in Toronto, identifying himself only as founder of Bloomberg Media. I think the station must have recently signed with Bloomberg for business news reports.

    I guess in the third term, anything goes.
