Bette Davis stamp! That's all kinds of awesome. I still have the Marilyn stamp they released when I was a kid and stamps were like 29 cents.

Give Barack/MoveOn your money and time in battleground states if you have it.

@ifearzombies: You won't get a husband based on what you wear. It's what you DON'T wear, darlin'!

@sybann: Ha, dingleberries! And to think what she paid for a dingleberry bag...

I did surprisingly well, but I had ZERO idea what the fur add was for. Sure, she's wearing a gigantic fur coat, but she's also perched on top of two boys rolled into a Cirque de Soleil ball. I was distracted by what in all hell they were supposed to be doing.

Maybe she's just checking to make sure she's still gorgeous as all get out. Signs point to yes.

I SAID everything you own in the box to the left!

I got excited for a second there because I thought the Slate writer was named NOMI Malone. I thought maybe she'd somehow equate the McCain campaign to the doomed "Goddess" show or work "erect nipples" or "whore nails" into the discourse.

@skellywelly: Totes. Nothing gets a celbutante press like achieving that "near-death" look. It's super-sad, both for them and the countless girls who find them aspirational.

Man, I too get irritated when I'm being chauffered from LAX after sitting front row at all the good shows at Bryant Park and those bastards INSIST on taking my photograph.

@squeakel: I feel the exact same way when people use "thin" to mean "healthy". Maybe it's because I live in LA, but many of the "thin" girls I know are chainsmokers and/or pill-poppers. The assumption that they are healthier than a clean-living girl 20 lbs heavier who works out and eats square meals has always…

@recidivicious: I was going to say the EXACT same thing! Although, because it's so Marilyn and over the top, I kinda like it.

@funnyface: Well at least we're more than halfway there...

I have to admit, on a shopping trip this weekend, I totally bit your style. For Fall, I think I'm all about fun dresses and gorgeous grandpa sweaters.

@descent_into_votd: And I should add, I don't WANT Dems to fight as dirty as Repubs. I just wish somehow presidential elections did not descend into lies, lipstick, and straight-up Voters Rights Act violations...

Foreclosure lists. Lovely. Nothing says Fall like the GOP disenfranchizing voters.

He may be the one Sweet Sixteen kid I actually liked. He was just so sweetly gay and slightly dorky.

@gherkinfiend: Prisoner rights is a sticky subject. They are still human, and does their conviction of a crime mean that they shouldn't be allowed to reproduce?

Wow, she looks like a mannequin. And the guy in back center looks like a stalker.

I've wanted to be her since I was a teenager. Nothing's changed.
