    So, Frank Sinatra told Trump to himself, after he tried to screw him over on appearance fees at his casinos.

    Gave him his private phone number, if he wanted to hear that again.

    Probably true about a number of other companies and industries.

    Well, not cool, but strange, this is the 'anarchist dog', facing riot police in Athens:





    His stupid name -'Loukanikos'- refers to (i suppose) his fondness of being fed sausages.

    Today I was baffled by people yet again. Apparently antisecular motions like reversing a ban on religious headscarves are somehow progressive.

    What are they trying to tell us? That Hollywood and its awards nights are full of backroom dealing and smearing? I think most people hopefully already knew that.

    ^Which is pretty interesting, given that Vienna is (afaik) the richest municipality in Europe.

    Anyway, the following gives new meaning to the phrase 'got one in the oven' :/

    The father of the children, Jameel Penn, says Williams called him by video chat Friday night. Penn says Williams panned around the room, and he called police after seeing his sons on the floor.
    "After I seen what I seen, you know I called the police," Penn told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution on Sunday.
    Longtime friend Neesa Smith told the paper Williams called her before she called Penn Friday night.
    "I asked her what was wrong and she said, 'I can't do it no more,'" Smith said.
    Smith said Williams told her both the boys were dead.
