Can you say, book deal?

Or, as my husband wondered...how long before she's posing in Playboy?

Our latest bit of pernicious pillow talk involved the recent identity-reveal of Eliot "I can't keep it in my pants" Spitzer's girl-for-hire. Ashley Alexandra Dupre, a 22-year-old aspiring musician according to her MySpace page and a scoop in the NY Times.

It seems that we are somehow expected to feel sorry for Ms. Dupre, who lamented that she had "slept little since the scandal erupted and was worried about paying the rent on her ninth-floor Manhattan apartment after her boyfriend recently left her." She said she didn't want everyone to think of her as a "monster."

Is this the point at which I'm supposed to brush away the tears?

I have a bit of unsolicited advice.

Put your panties back on, Ash. Find some roommates to help you pay the rent. Get a waitressing job like every other struggling artist out there. And why don't you, while you're at it, try to think about someone besides yourself.

But, girly, if it makes you feel any better, my husband had this to say when he saw your picture...

"Well, I'll say this for Eliot. He has good taste."

In her radio show, Dr Laura Schlesinger said that, as an observant Orthodox Jew, homosexuality is an abomination according to Leviticus 18:22, and cannot be condoned under any circumstance. The following response is an open letter to Dr. Laura, written by a U.S. resident, and posted on the Internet. It's funny, as well as informative: Dear Dr. Laura: Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law. I have learned a great deal from your show, and try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind them that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination ... End of debate. I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some other elements of God's Laws and how to follow them. 1. Leviticus 25:44 states that I may possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexic...

In memoriam...

I remember the first time I heard the name "Les Anderson." A bunch of Wichita State University communication majors were sitting around on campus, talking about classes they planned to take. Several people warned me: watch out for Les Anderson. He was tough. He had a murderous grading scale. It was nearly impossible to get an A. They weren't kidding. But he wasn't tough just to be a tyrant. From his teaching sprang a fleet of incredible, successful journalists, writers, editors, broadcasters, public relations experts, advertisers, non-profit professionals...I could go on and on. Most importantly, he created a legion of people who wanted to make a difference in the world. The greatest gift Les gave to them all? He believed in them, cared about them for their own personal stories as well as the stories they told for class assignments or in the pages of his hometown newspaper. Les was my teacher. My boss. My mentor. My conscience. My champion. My friend. When I started c...
