The hard-partying lass puffed right under the nose of the minders who try to keep her out of trouble.

The first of his guns-n-babes epics -- Picasso Trigger and Hard Ticket to Hawaii -- are due November 13. Followed in January by Savage Beach and Guns (with the great Erik Estrada!) Each disc will feature brand new transfers, Dolby Digital Stereo tracks and be hosted by Mr. Sidaris and the can-tastic Julie Strain. Also included will be audio commentary by the legendary filmmaker, The Andy Sidaris Film School featurette, trailers, a photo gallery featuring never-before-seen steamy stills and much, much more. http://www.andysidaris.com/ - - Steve __________ PAGE SIX has learned that the fun-loving First Daughters attended wild parties two nights in a row last week - including a Beverly Hills bash where Jenna was photographed holding a drink. - New York Post ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 31 Aug 2001 22:07:24 -0500 From: "Brian Huddell" Subject: Who says there's no room for integrity the music biz? From a blurb about P. Diddy's collaboration with Bowie on some movie soundtrack: http://www.cnn.com/2001/SHOWBIZ/News/08/31/showbuzz/index.html "We're just going to have a big old fusion of flavor," Combs told Associated Press Television News. "And hopefully we'll make a hit record that represents the movie but ... isn't just for the movie. Where it's also a hit record." I love the way Mr. Diddy reassures his public that he hasn't lost sight of what really matters. Oh sure, he'll bend a little to represent the movie but not at the expense of commercial appeal. Way to stand your ground, Fluffy. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 31 Aug 2001 23:34:09 -0500 From: steve Subject: Surprising Mr. Pullman http://www.guardian.co.uk/bush/story/0,7369,542656,00.html - - Steve __________ Last week the International Monetary Fund, which has no political stake in the debate over Social Security, told the prosaic truth: "the long-term financing problems of Social Security are not large" and "could be addressed through relatively small adjustments in the program's parameters." - Paul Krugman ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 31 Aug 2001 22:13:07 -0700 (PDT) From: Jeff Dwarf Subject: Re: The blubbering goes on...and on...and on....

Godders (or should that be Goddo?).... Didn't see anyone recording the post tour bash. I've searched my fading memory and for the life of me I can't remember which Creedence song the boys may, or may not have played...Sorry. I'm a big CCR fan, though I don't whether this means I should or shouldn't remember it....Eh? What am I blethering about...? Matt.... The Wilde was groovy down Newbury way. Filmed something in Hamburg since then, but didn't have any time to do any Beatles related tourism. I'm supposed to play the Mayor Of Hull soon which will be, erm, interesting Probably won't be able to make it to Evershot as I'm supposed to be attending a memorial get-together at noon the following day for a school-friend who died recently in rather sad circumstances. But will be at the RFH to see The SBs blow The Pretty Things off stage;-) Kay.... It's 909 on my copy of Let It Be ;-) All you Romantics.... The Last Man by Mazza Shelley is an interesting if rather embittered work. Percy's pamphlet which got him chucked out of Oxford was called The Necessity Of Atheism (not exactly pulling punches with that title...) co-written with Thomas Jefferson Hogg. Fascinating stuff. Hamish quipped about Peter Buzzcock Shelley - I wonder if he took this tag more in homage to Tom Television Verlaine than our Bysshe boy. Actually, there's a mildly interesting thread - Favourite rock soubriquets and their origins... yer Ariel Benders and yer Captain Beefhearts...It's a thought. Talking of silly names and personae I'm off to see The Tubes and The Residents within the next two or three weeks. jmbc ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 2 Sep 2001 11:28:25 +1200 From: grutness@surf4nix.com (James Dignan) Subject: reap Brian Moore, on the morning of England's Munich triumph.
