Jared Kushner's charming and no fool. So I wonder why he's rubbishing the Observer's editorial traditions quite so publicly. It could be that he learned from his father that's how people are managed (even journalists). Or maybe he tried the softly-softly approach and grew tired of it as the paper's losses worsened. The trashing of Kaplan's Observer could just possibly be a deliberate attempt to shock the newspaper's staff out of old habits.
Is it just me or did the actual PAPER get thinner this week? I don't mean as in fewer pages, I mean as in onion skin style pressed pulp. All that's left is a skeleton staff with the busiest employee selling legal notices.
I used to love the Observer. Well-written, if not meaty stories. Now it's a glorified Hamptons social rag. I still receive it because I already paid for my subscription, but now I just go straight to the crossword puzzle.
Cheating in the 80's must have been so much easier, no emails, cellphones etc to get you in trouble. And the excuses, much more plausilble: "I have to go return some videotapes." Now who can argue with that. Remember those late fees?
"I'm happy for him when he is at the office working late." Wow. That sounds like a relationship made in heaven. I suspect the divorce lawyers are already lining up for when these two get married.
I hear you Bill. It's funny because though I am a big fan of Obama these days...I still can't stand Caroline and Bill Richardson, either. It's not because they supported Obama v. Hillary exactly...it's that they were close family friends and they supported Hillary before that and all of a sudden they were allergic to her.
However, I do get a quite a bit of enjoyment out of the fact that Caroline's attempted grab of Hillary's seat failed so spectacularly and that Bill and his stupid beard got no cabinet position (same goes for you John Kerry!).
Meanwhile, Obama gives me Hillary as SoS and a Hispanic woman as a SCOTUS justice. Awesome.
@ellagood: Somehow I just knew you'd be in this thread with with some sort of comment related to fucking Bill Clinton. I am so proud of myself right now.
Honestly, anybody who is not afraid to call P. Diddy a "fucking idiot" is OK in my book. Not to mention, the attempted head-butting incident scores him bonus points.
Don't you find something distasteful about these go-getter baby-tycoon boys who lose their virginity to girls too early? I mean, the poor girls (and does it ever get any better for them?)...
@Lucia Toledo: Um, there are things I find distasteful about them, but losing their virginity in high school (like the rest of us non-uglies did) isn't that big of a deal.

Conversation sure to end this way:
Ruth to Sonia: "Oh, and stay far away from Clarence. Trust."
