Abe Vigoda: Celebrity Sighting o’ the Day

From Gawker, who no doubt posted something raincoaster-swipe-worthy to celebrate my new status as a certified (and certifiable) Gawker commenter. The few. The proud. The ones who read the open invitation on Sunday night and emailed just before passing out.

Abe Vigoda

Sunday I saw Abe Vigoda putting the moves on some broad who couldn’t have been more than 60, on a bench in central park outside the Delacorte waiting for Macbeth. I was sitting next to him when I called a friend and told her Abe Vigoda was alive and well in central park. After I hung up, the dame said, “is that who you are, Abe Vigoda? Weren’t you Luca Brazi in Barney Miller?” and he said, “No, I was Sally Tessio in Fish.”

Pride week is coming, people. Thought I’d help you set the mood.

Paranoid, angsty, and awash with free-floating guilt.
Why should us Breeders be the only ones, dammit!

Danth a little clother to…CHARO!!!

Yeah, maybe. But you and I both know you’ll watch it when nobody’s looking.
The greatest flamenco guitarist of her generation, and this is what she’ll go down in history for. I no longer feel underappreciated, relatively speaking.

I am also heartened to see that even seasoned Vegas performers and Love Boat semi-regulars have great difficulty dancing in those stupid heels. Bars should have shoe caddies under the tables so you can swap to flats for hitting the floor.

Durham University: parent’s dream, wanker’s delight, plumber’s nightmare

All I want to know is, what in the name of all that is holy are they feeding these boys?

I’m assuming it’s a boy’s dorm. I lived in a girl’s dorm, and I can tell you that’s not neccessarily a given.

Pirate Booty Call, with bonus casting couch!

Orlando Bloom discusses the universal desire to get taken from behind by Johnny Depp. From AP:

Pirate Booty, arrrrrr!

AP: What makes these “Pirates” films so appealing?

Bloom: I guess we all want to be a pirate. Somewhere inside us I suppose it’s a real fantasy about being out on the open sea. Nothing’s stopping you from living whatever life you want to live. You’re not landlocked. And pirate booty, everyone likes a bit of pirate booty…

AP: What was it like … with Johnny Depp?

Bloom: He just tears up the s—–. It was great for me. I think he’s [made] brave choices and doing m—– that he wants, not conforming. I really admire that and I think he really delivers as Jack Sparrow. It was great for me …

Even I couldn’t have said it better, melad. Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

And here we have the job listing for aforesaid pirate booty. Apparently, Depp has a gimp fetish.
