It's obvious. TOO obvious!
For example

They never see each other in the eyes.

Again, from Daily News

Noticed that Sen. John McCain looks a little pained in his pro-Bush advertisements? Rock star Moby knows why: "I'm best friends with [John's son] Sid McCain. John McCain hates President Bush. He's just doing those ads to help the Republicans." We asked Moby if he'd be protesting the convention. "I'm just going to sit by and watch," he told us. "I'm not hopeful"...
I thought I gave up following up, but here we go another chapter of Tinkerbel Hilton...

from Daily News:

Stop the presses. Call out the SPCA. Tinkerbell may still be missing! Though Paris Hilton told the world last week that her prized teacup Chihuahua had been found, the pampered pooch she's parading may be a body double, according to this week's In Touch magazine...

Umm... It's weird... I would prefer liquid one. I mean, look at this. Does look illegal!
New alcohol craze is a cocktail haze (Daily News)

A machine that converts alcohol into breathable mist is slated to make its U.S. debut tonight in a trendy Meatpacking District bar.

Called Alcohol Without Liquid (AWoL), the machine is billed as creating a low-calorie, hangover-free buzz. Promoters say it's big with clubbers in England, where the nonliquid libation was introduced in February.

But a spokesman for the Trust Lounge, which plans to unveil the vodka vaporizer, said complaints from elected officials could force bartenders back to pouring drinks.

Dr. Marc Siegel, Associate Professor of Medicine at NYU Medical Center, said, "I can see a lot of problems with this." "My main concern is that people will be getting drunker than they realize," he said. "When you drink too much, you feel bad. With this, there's no safeguard to stop you."

The new laughing gas
AWoL users pour a shot of their favorite spirit into a diffuser capsule, which is connected to an oxygen pipe. Oxygen bubbles are pumped through it, absorbing the alcohol and creating a smoky-looking vapor, which is then sucked through a tube and inhaled.

The whole process takes about 20 minutes.
My last (?) followup of Tinkerbell Hilton (Read the previous blogs in detail)
"The Tinkerbell Hilton Diaries: My Life Tailing Paris Hilton" (Warner, $9.95)

Daily News

Reflecting on her debut appearance in a pink angora sweater, the Chihuahua writes: "I'm one of those dogs ... that people cheer when a falcon swoops down and disappears into the sky with one in its talons."

In the diaries, passed on to D. Resin to be compiled into a book, Tinkerbell expresses her unhappiness at having to "smell heiress armpit all day long."

She also recounts various traumatic incidents. There was the day Hilton got into it with Star Jones at a Rodeo Drive shoe store where the clerk was charged with producing strappy sandals that wouldn't make "The View" hostess' "feet look like a pair of breast implants being pushed through a tennis racquet."

Then there was the time Hilton tried to recharge her cell phone batteries in the microwave. After watching the hotel heiress spend 20 minutes trying to stuff a $100 bill into a vending machine, Tinkerbell resorted to licking a power socket for relief.

In the end, though, Tinkerbell's safe return can be judged a joyful matter, since she herself concludes that life with Paris is ultimately rewarding.

Or, as the dog puts it, "a mere bitch hasn't had a ride this good since Marie Antoinette before the butler let the mob in."

Here is the info
Then this is Aug. 19 followup! They are reunited:)
Lost & Found Dept. (Daily News)

It was lick, lick, lick yesterday as Paris Hilton had a smoochy reunion with her teacup Chihuahua Tinkerbell, who'd been missing for a week. Reps for the hotel heiress wouldn't say who returned the dog or whether Paris would make good on her $5,000 reward offer.

Some wondered if there really was a canine crisis, or whether it was one more bid to build buzz for Hilton's approaching book. One friend insisted, "Please, she doesn't need any more publicity. She really lost her dog."

All the same, the disappearance is bound to help sales of "The Tinkerbell Hilton Diaries," an unauthorized (and, for Paris, unflattering) humor book.
As seen in the previous blog, she was burglarized. And her Chihuahua was stolen. This is as of Aug. 18 (dunno why I keep following this story....)
Ay, Chihuahua! Paris is missing a pal (Daily News)

Paris Hilton has put up a $5,000 reward for whoever finds Tinkerbell. (Here is the Tinkerbell)

Hilton's minions have plastered her Hollywood Hills neighborhood with posters of a sad-eyed little Tinkerbell. Initially, Paris offered a $1,000 reward. Getting nervous, she's now promised $5,000.

The posters make no mention of Paris. "If they find out Tinkerbell is my dog, they'll hold it for ransom," Hilton worries in In Touch Weekly. "Everyone knows I'm rich, so they'll want millions." Though Tinkerbell is often seen in a pink Chanel suit with tiny matching shoes, she was wearing no couture when last seen.

Some wags wonder if the pooch may have bolted Hilton's pad in a jealous rage. After having only one pet for years, the "Simple Life" star has lately been seen fawning over a fluffy dog named Prince. She's also brought home a shifty-looking ferret and a kitten who puts on an all-sweet-and-helpless act.

Hilton's former chef Lyla Livingston claimed last year that Paris had been less than attentive to Tinkerbell - that she once found the dog in Hilton's bedroom looking malnourished, tail between its legs.

Paris, who fired Livingston, later retorted, "Tinkerbell is like my daughter!" A friend argues, "Paris has had a million pets, but Tinkerbell is special to her."

That's too bad, I mean, good.
No sequel, says Paris

Ex-lovers Paris Hilton and Nick Carter don't agree on much nowadays, but they both swear they never made a sex tape.

Published reports have claimed the hotel heiress could face a scandal hotter than the one she endured after half the world downloaded her videotaped lovemaking with ex-boyfriend Rick Salomon.

Burglars who broke into Hilton's Hollywood Hills pad on Aug. 6 are now said to have made off with explicit tapes of Hilton and Carter.

But Paris' spokeswoman says there never were such tapes.
They should broadcast this. The greatest reality show;)
Dressed to thrill
Jacko & kin don white to watch DA get gored
DAILY NEWS

Michael Jackson and his siblings dressed in white yesterday to watch a prosecutor squirm.
They kept their sunglasses on as Jacko's attorney grilled District Attorney Tom Sneddon, who is trying to nail Jackson on child molestation charges.

And when Sneddon lost his temper and was twice rebuked by the judge, Jackson giggled both times. "Mr. Sneddon, I'm going to ask you to stop sparring with the attorney," Superior Court Judge Rodney Melville said. "Just answer the question."

The King of Pop did not have to attend the hearing... but he wanted to watch his lawyer, Thomas Mesereau, dismantle the prosecutor. (Evil!!)

The Jacksons arrived at the courthouse in a double-decker bus and were greeted by 200 cheering fans, including two boys holding a sign that read, "If Michael Jackson is Peter Pan, then Tom Sneddon is Captain Hook."

During the lunch break, the Jackson siblings and their parents retreated to their bus and had lunch delivered to them from a McDonald's.

A 14-year-old girl named Vienna Wood, who runs a Web site called mercyformichael.com, insisted that "people need to be more fair toward Michael."

Time to switch the party!
Barbie for President
AP

Barbie thinks she knows who can make a difference in this year's presidential race -- girls -- and she's the one who is going to represent them.

She has pledged a campaign that will concentrate on creating world peace, helping the homeless and poor, and taking care of animals.

Marie C. Wilson, president and founder of the national, nonpartisan The White House Project, said Barbie's campaign shows girls that they can aspire to the highest levels of leadership, including the presidency.

Get together for B!

So cute!!!!
A ruff rider!
Lone pup hops train in Bronx, disem-barks with pal in blue

On a summer's Monday afternoon in the Bronx, she rode her way into the annals of city subway legend - and into the heart of the kindly cop who put an end to her joyride at the 180th St. station.

"She's a beautiful dog," gushed Officer John Santana, who is thinking about adopting her.

The canine's adventure began at the elevated Burke Ave. station around 9:30 a.m., when she scampered aboard a southbound No. 2 train. Apparently, no one had noticed her entering the station. But even hardened commuters had to look up and smile as the tan mutt wagged her tail and playfully approached riders, charming the crowd.

Maybe she was trying to get to the Bronx Zoo. But with no one to ask for directions, she overshot by one station and got off at Bronx Park East, three stops from Burke Ave.
She soon hopped another No.2 to 180th St., where she got off and met Santana and his partner, Officer Raymond Cruz.

The duo brought her to New York City Animal Care and Control's Manhattan shelter.

Santana said it's not the first time he and Cruz, who work in Transit District 12, have encountered the animal kingdom on the subway.

"We've seen chickens, cats," Santana said. "Once a rat took a train downtown."

Movie Review 29
Collateral (Rating: 4)

First of all, I don't understand why there were so many elderly people turned out to see this Tom Cruise's action thriller movie. When I saw The Notebook, which apparently attracted old couples because it's that kind of story and very sweet. But I don't know why Tom??

Anyway, as everyone knows, Tom unusually played a bad guy. But he is Tom after all. He showed his smile and teeth on purpose or not, which made this assassin unnecessarily cool. He carjacked cab in LA and forced the driver Max (Jamie Foxx) to drive Tom around so he can kill people easily. I don't quite understand who he was killing. Something about Colombia or something, anyhow, he was paid to kill.

The problem is this assassin the Tom is not so smart, I supposed. He trusted Max too much to keep his assassination plan going on. Like, Tom decided to visit Max's mom in the hospital with flowers. But as usual, Tom is so strong that he didn't get hurt that much even when the cab turned over and even when Max shot his shoulder. Tom is action hero, you know.

Having made fun of him, this movie is good. Especially, Will Smith's wife is so pretty.
Movie Review 28
Garden State (Rating: 3)

I wrote the loooooong review, but it's fucked out due to damn computer....

Anyway, what I wrote was so distorted and biased by my crush on Natalie Portman. I mean, the movie could be sweet and funny to certain people and obnoxious critics, but to me I hated to see the weird guy kissing Nat too much. I can't help but think that he wrote and directed and acted ONLY because he wanted to act with Nat.

See, you can't trust this review. So if you want, just go ahead to see the movie;p Natalie actually acted very well. Dog is fun to see. And NJ is very beautiful, I didn't know.

Let's hope next her film, Closer won't show too much her love scene so I can write proper review.
So Charlie's Angel is fake...
Lean times for Cameron (Daily News)

Justin Timberlake and Cameron Diaz's relationship has survived a few bumps, one of which occurred last Sunday in Miami. The couple was spotted at Skybar, tearing up the dancefloor to Fat Joe's summer hit, "Lean Back."

"Justin's an incredible dancer, and Cameron's not such a great dancer," says my hipster tipster.
"So Justin's leaning back in time with the lyrics. Cameron tries to keep up, but unfortunately leans back too far and falls down on the ground."

Laughs the spy, "Justin picked her up, but everyone saw her fall on her face."
