Geragos Nonsense
Mark Geragos is the spotlight grabbing attorney who represented Susan McDougal in the Whitewater investigation. Yon reader might recall Geragos would doll up McDougal, who refused to testify against the great Bill Clinton for God only knows what compensation, in a bright orange jumpsuit and leg irons. No, the government prosecutors didn’t dress that woman like that. It was all a Geragos publicity ploy, designed to make us see the horror of this young woman shackled and manacled, poor baby.
Geragos is also the fine lawyer who got Ashley Judd jail time for a shoplifting conviction even though it was her first offense. Yon readers might also recall that Geragos was involved in the Michael Jackson defense until he was fired.
Perhaps most damning of all, Geragos wasn’t even in the court room the day the Scott Peterson verdict was announced, this fine attorney having other obligations that precluded his presence in this most important day of any trial. Methinks he knew his precious client was going to the gallows and didn’t want his face on the TV screen when the guilty announcement came down.
But that’s just me.
Now the man has a web site soliciting contributions for the defense of his fine and noble client, Scott Peterson, who was “unjustly convicted” for the murder of his wife and their unborn child.
I can’t wait to send in my dollars.
From SFGATE.com
Insisting that his client "has been unjustly convicted," the Los Angeles attorney who defended Scott Peterson is using the Internet to solicit donations to continue the investigation into the murders of Laci Peterson and her unborn son.

ITEM: What Oscar-winner better order a lab test now that she has that new boyfriend?Others who've dated him say his money isn't worth the risk of getting his STD...
GUESS:Kidman & Bing
…from yon editress-this Bing fellow is the father of actress Liz Hurly’s baby and it took a blood test to prove it.
ITEM: WHICH actress is brow-beating the cast and crew as if she were still above the title? She could use a good part on the big screen, but everyone in Hollywood remembers how badly she treats underlings so now she's settled for appearing in a TV reality show . . .
GUESS: What about Farrah Fawcett? I've recently heard she's taping a reality show about herself.

Found this listing on a celebrity gossip newsgroup and thought it interesting. Forthwith:
The Top 10 Entertainment Stories of 2004
Scripps Howard News Service
1. A flash of Janet Jackson's breast during the Super Bowl halftime show got
the Federal Communications Commission all hot and bothered, but had a
chilling effect on broadcasters. The fear of FCC fines for "indecency"
caused radio stations and the networks to grow cautious, and prevented many
ABC stations from airing the World War II movie "Saving Private Ryan" uncut
because of profanity.
2. Domestic diva Martha Stewart began decorating the pokey, serving a
five-month sentence in a federal prison for obstructing an investigation
into possible insider trading. But Stewart has already found a television
halfway home pending her release, with plans for a new syndicated show
produced by "Survivor" and "Apprentice" guru Mark Burnett.
3. It's anchors away, as both NBC's Tom Brokaw and CBS' Dan Rather announced
their retirements after more than 20 years each on the nightly news.
4. Three influential and long-running sitcoms - "Friends," "Frasier," and
"Sex in the City" - came to an end, prompting retrospectives, viewing
parties and speculation about the end of the genre.
5. Michael Moore's "Fahrenheit 9/11" and Morgan Spurlock's "Super Size Me"
proved that documentaries can find success at the box office while also
helping to shape the national debate.
6. Mel Gibson had trouble finding a studio for "The Passion of the Christ,"
a film completely in Aramaic that featured grueling torture scenes detailing
the last hours of Jesus. But he had the last laugh as the film became an
unlikely phenomenon, tapping into an unexpectedly mainstream market for a
fundamentally Christian film.
7. Crunk, the form of hip-hop made by Georgia-based rappers, dominated the
music charts. Usher's "Confessions" was the year's top-selling album at 7.1
million copies, almost double the runner up, driven by the success of the
ubiquitous "Yeah." That ode to dance floor lust, featuring Ludicrous and Lil
Jon, was inescapable on the radio, in clubs, on music video stations and
even from cell phone ring tones.
8. The success of Dreamwork's "Shrek 2" and Pixar's "The Incredibles"
continued a string of computer-animated hits aimed at both children and
adults.
9. Ken Jennings became a household name, winning a record 74 consecutive
games of "Jeopardy," earning $2.5 million, also a record.
10. "Lord of the Rings: Return of the King" won 11 Oscars, including best
picture. Currently, there are no plans for "Lord of the Rings 2: Return of
the Return of the King."

From Jesse Jackson
Gotta love this guy, who I’ve reduced to pop culture status so silly and irrelevant he has become. Now Bush is guilty of casting the Christ child from his home with his economic policies!
Jesse Jackson: Bush Would Have Left Jesus Homeless
President Bush has implemented economic policies that resemble those of the Roman Empire, which forced the baby Jesus into homelessness on the night of his birth, former civil rights leader Rev. Jesse Jackson said in a pre-Christmas rant late Thursday.
"In the last [Bush] budget, we cut housing again, and that was Jesus' dilemma. In Bethlehem, his family ended up homeless," Jackson told MSNBC's Campbell Brown.
