Two nasty divorces, one with Ann Heche and the other Christy Brinkley. Tom Arnold, whose major talent is being a husband, caught pilfering the gifts.
Lots of Blind items and a way to stop smoking only it requires an operation on the brain.
Finally, Jennifer Aniston suing again, this time for a nose job she said she never got. Heh.

Behind the Scenes During the Christine Brinkley Divorce
There is none so dumber than the estranged husband of Christie Brinkley. I'd make a snide joke about men but won't. Heh.
From NY POST/CINDY ADAMS:
THE Christie Brinkley-Peter Cook saga. She's handled this brilliantly. Publicly, she just smiled, always looking in control, never taking one
opportunity to knock him in the press. Never speaking out once. But behind the scenes, this beautiful blond confection, who looks like whipped cream wouldn't melt in her mouth, was a killer. She quickly hustled the kids away. Didn't let him know where. Did not allow him access. Did not permit him to speak to them. And when she did finally grant him one minute on the phone, she'd, for instance, instruct their son Jack: "Tell him to call one of his whores."
When, finally, she let him see his children, she called all the shots. Strictly at the time she chose, strictly at her own compound. He kept trying to win her back. He sent love letters. Flowers. Forget it. We big brains who knew he'd been married to this terrific woman but like a jerk got himself involved with another jerk but was a great father - we all figured she'd take him back as other today women do. Not a shot. Supposedly, they were poised to open a furniture business. Smarter, tougher than all of us, she walked away from it all. And let him dangle. When he wanted to talk publicly, she told him don't you dare. She frightened him into submission. He stayed quiet. He cried. Lost weight. Got scared. She stayed beautiful. She posed for photographers at events.
Jen Aniston's Mad At Someone Again
I don't think I've been so amused as I have over the antics of former "Friend", Jennifer Aniston. Now we know, we whisper softly, that Jen hasn't had an easy time after her hit show went off the air. But Aniston's way of keeping the public's attention on her, such as it is, does amuse.
From TMZ.com:
Jennifer Aniston is pissed off at Beverly Hills plastic surgeon, Dr. Raj Kanodia.
Sources tells TMZ that a furious Aniston has placed several calls to Kanodia's office to express her extreme displeasure that Kanodia spoke to US Weekly for an article entitled "Jen's Secret Nose Job." The magazine claimed that Aniston underwent rhinoplasty at Kanodia's office on January 20.
For one thing, it seems that ole Jennifer never walks around topless without some photog or another snapping her pic. She's been photographed topless at the beach and she's been photographed topless on her front lawn. I must wonder why Jen keeps walking around topless what her bad luck and everything.
Not that down and out actresses don't sometimes have to pose topless to get some bucks and attention but hey, they can't LOOK like they're so down and out that they're posing topless. Yeah, it gets complicated.
So Jen constantly gets herself caught just going about her business with no top and life ain't fair, ain't fair at all.
Now Jen's nose job has been revealed although, heh, Jen's publicist claims the actress was not at all angry at the surgeon who came close to telling the world that Aniston had a nose job.
So we must ask ourselves, will we fall all over ourselves to see Jen's new nose job which she managed to tell us about in this strange manner? Or should Jen continue to get caught naked for the cameras to keep our interest?
The Boston Terror Over Lite-Brights
This story cropped up in the middle of my weekly Blog cycle, as it were. Thus I have no fine pics or quotes but no way could I let the saga of Boston and the little cartoon signs go by another week without a snarky comment from The Wise I.
Now there's mixed emotions about this event in that it is entirely possible that Osama Bin Laden could have went all the hell over Boston and put up these little cartoon-sign bombs so stop giggling.
And yet, my giggles don't stop. This is the absolutely definition of Pop Culture, ladies and gems. As for Boston, this city has defined itself with its nutty over-reaction to the cartoon signs. That definition? This is what you get when you put a whole group of liberal Metrosexuals in charge of things.
They pass same-sex marriage laws in defiance of elected legislators; they march against the war; they continually elect America-hating Ted Kennedy and John Kerry, that right there shows you that Massachusetts is a nutty state. But let some cartoon characters that look like little "light-brite" cartoon signs show up and we know where all the cowards live.
I especially enjoyed that duo who did the deed. "Guerilla marketers" they call them and Bloggers should be familiar with them. I am regularly bombarded with pleas from these sorts to publicize some TV show or another. Their specialty is off-the-wall contests and hey, that stunt they did in Boston. The guerilla marketing duo held a press conference right after their court hearing. Heh. The pair would only accept questions about their HAIR! Dogged reporters tried to get them to discuss their stunt but were shot down by a firm "That question is NOT about HAIR and will not answered".
The politicos and police in Boston are just so damn angry at looking so dumb and we suppose that Ted Turner will have to pay for the havoc their failure to lead effectively has caused.
It's just too funny and we couldn't make it up if we tried.
Ann Heche...All Out of Sexes to Love
At first she was the big love of admitted lesbian Ellen Degeneres. She dropped Ellen for a man and this caused some hoots across the fruited plain.
From Yahoo.com:
Anne Heche and her husband are separating after five years of marriage, her spokeswoman said Wednesday.
"They have requested that they be allowed their privacy at this time," publicist Lisa Kasteler said in a statement.
Heche, 37, and Coleman Laffoon, a motion picture cameraman, were married in September 2001. The couple have a 4-year-old son, Homer.
So okay, Ann, it's been female, then male....now what?
Smoking Cured by Spot in Brain
Our own wise self has stopped a three pack a day habit just recently so smoking stories currently intrigue. Myself had to rely on a nicotine replacement product but beyond this it wasn't all that bad. I didn't kill anybody or even loose my temper all that much.
Now I am to understand that a small needle through a certain part of my brain and boom, it's as if I never smoked at all?
From Yahoo.com:
WASHINGTON - Damage to a silver dollar-sized spot deep in the brain seems to wipe out the urge to smoke, a surprising discovery that may shed important new light on addiction. The research was inspired by a stroke survivor who claimed he simply forgot his two-pack-a-day addiction _ no cravings, no nicotine patches, not even a conscious desire to quit.
"The quitting is like a light switch that went off," said Dr. Antoine Bechara of the University of Southern California, who scanned the brains of 69 smokers and ex-smokers to pinpoint the region involved. "This is very striking."

ASKED
This A-list actor is fairly recently married and even has a child. Although he has had a serious drug problem in the past, most people thought it was just that, in the past. His previous drug use had caused him to be turned down for several roles which could have made him an even larger star. Because of the drugs, he was forced to take some roles that most actors in his position would turn down without a thought. Until his current marriage, his relationships were always on and off, depending on his drug use. Once everyone thought he was clean, they began hiring him again and again. Now however, back-to-back-to-back-to-back films without a break and a long absence from his wife allowed him to resume his old ways and habits. He still has a few films in the pipeline, but their dates keep getting pushed back to see whether or not he can kick his habit or whether he will be back to his old ways.

ASKED
This A-list actor recently had his movie delayed. It was allegedly so he could take some time off for exhaustion because he was working so hard. In actuality though, his herpes was flaring up and he kept getting cold sores. Makeup just made the problem worse, and it was going to be too expensive to digitally remove the sores from each frame of the film. Even worse, his co-star definitely did not want to kiss our actor and insisted something to be done. Time was the cure, but the co-star still did not want to kiss our actor. Seems odd for a couple playing husband and wife not to kiss, which is why parts of the film are being reshot.

ASKED
What relationship is on the rocks? This singer who had a notorious breakup has been with a new girl for many months now, but their long-distance relationship is starting to fade. Once thought to be headed for the altar, now this rebound relationship could be over. As they spend more time together, they are realizing they have two very different agendas and are in two very different places in their lives not counting their respective residences. She is trying to move her career to the next level while he is ready to settle down and have children. She will do anything for publicity and he is more comfortable out of the spotlight. Another sticking point is her choice of friends. He does not approve of many of them and this has caused additional
friction. She enjoys partying and he prefers to stay home. Look for them both to be spotted soon being friendly with other people. Do not expect any public comments or publicist's statements.

That Sundance Movie Festival
We've been reading about the child rape scene played by Dakota Fanning. Who is a precious 12 years of age.
Dakota is the daughter of actors and likely she's a Hollywood child who's been around. Still, should children be in any way involved with this sort of film, much less be acting in one?
OFFICIAL SUNDANCE SITE
Speaking of Sundance
Tom Arnold, who does have a sports show on ESPN so let's give him credit, is seen scurrying off with some free stuff from the Sundance Film Festival.
Somebody needs to tell the IRS. Heh.
