Donald Trump and Rudy Giuliani—two brash New Yorkers as New York as New York can get—are planning to become residents of Florida. The president and the former mayor both have homes in the Sunshine State and already spend much of the year down south. Sources tell me the two are planning ...
I’ve never done an honest day’s work in my long and useless life, so it is acutely annoying when people brag about the horrible jobs they had when they were young. If I had been forced to work at McDonald’s, mow lawns, or be a bicycle messenger, I would keep that shameful secret to ...
How much money is enough? Would $30 million suffice for an old woman with no children? I ponder these questions as I try to understand why Marianne Nestor Cassini has spent several months in Nassau County Jail for contempt of court. The widow of Oleg Cassini was left half of his $60 million ...
It is dangerous to stereotype nationalities without seeming to be an imperialist pig. However, some international news stories require no dateline for one to know immediately where they occurred. Lying in bed in the morning sipping coffee, my news-junkie girlfriend will suddenly look up from ...
Pat Buckley would be spinning in her grave if she knew what has happened to the Met Gala she used to cohost with Blaine Trump. The benefit for the museum’s Costume Institute is now an orgy of vulgarity starring Kardashians and pop stars I’ve never heard of wearing getups one might see in a ...

We love Yale sluts! “No” means “yes,” and “yes” means “anal”—that’s the beastly braying cry at Yale these days. The frat boys from Delta Kappa Epsilon (G. W. Bush’s club) have been accused of taunting female undergraduates in this fashion. Yale requested that the fraternity be ...
I just happened to lay my hands on a recent copy of The New York Times" "Dining & Wine" section that a friend left hanging around. Believe me, I don"t buy the Times. At $2, the copy is no longer good value for starting fires or lining the toucan's cage. In typical Times fashion ...
Aren"t you fed-up with goofy renditions of our national anthem? I refer to the dreadful Miss Aguilera's butchering of "Oh, say can you see...?" at the Super Bowl. It's not so much that she skipped a line"an egregious gaffe"it's the fact that she chose to render the song in a ...
