Hillary Clinton is once again hurt by a high-profile sex scandal.
Thanks to Eliot Spitzer’s (aka Client 9) rendezvous with a petite, brunette, American woman-of-the-night named “Kristen,” in a Washington D.C. hotel room, his resignation from office is eminent. Sources tell the Associated Press an official resignation announcement will come today (March 12) at 11:30 am EST.
Once Spitzer steps down, he will be replaced by his Lieutenant Governor David Paterson. David Paterson’s post will then be filled by the president of the New York State Senate Joseph Bruno. Bruno is a Republican and is not a fan of Spitzer (to say the least) (Bruno was to be steamrolled by our philandering governor).
So what does all of this have to do with Hillary? Read more »

I am a fan of the Discovery Channel and the History Channel, they usually work nicely when there isn’t much on television, always nice to tune in and see what Mike Rowe is up to or to see some one struggling to survive on an crab fishing boat, driving to and from a diamond mind in the Arctic, or lost in the wilderness.
In fact, the lost in the wilderness concept is so popular it has spawned two shows, both on Discovery Survivorman and Man vs. Wild. Survivorman has Les Stroud, an American a Canadian, with his own with a camera or two, stomping around in the wilderness, setting up his shots and then going back, breaking down the camera and moving on to his next shot. The idea is to survive the wilderness and make it back to civilization some how. Man vs. Wild features Bear Grylls a British ex-SAS “adventurer,” stomping through the wild, with a camera crew in tow, also stranded in the wild and trying to make his way back to civilization.

A recent comment to my old Perry Street review left me writing a too-long response in the comments section. I think it deserves a wider airing here.
Stevie Vong points out that he had recently eaten at Perry Street and
The food was delicious. Does the author has no taste? Or was so drunk, couldn’t taste the food?
The rabbit especially- very tasty. That new avocado, mushroom with jalapeno appetizer is to die for.
You want taste…go to Spice Market…if you don’t taste the food- it’s you!
I responded with an indictment of the Citysearch comments section. It’s not their fault, actually. It’s just hard to know if overly positive comments are spam or if these people can’t stop taking happy pills.
My reply, and Andy Rooney, after this jump:

Following up on my post about the Evils of Social Networking and the importance of not lying on your resume (this post). I just got this email (edited for names, etc.):
Subject: John Smith is cheating you on applying to your school
–
Dear Sir /Madam,
My roommate, John Smith, enrolled in a Graduate School of Random University in 2006. But he failed several important courses, cheated during exams and then was then kicked out of the school. After that he got a job in another part of the school, I heard he was applying for your University for Fall 2007 and did not inform you that he had failed out. It is an outrage, but the message is true. Please contact the admin office of Random University or human resources there to check on his current status.
His last name is Smith, First name is John. He is from a Random Country.
Please contact the school to verify what I have said [Contact Information erased]
Sincerely ,
John Smith’s Roomate
So remember, watch your back and don’t lie, you never know who is going to rat you out.
