Maple Leaf In the name of diversity It’s a good thing, obviously. To be open and allow a forum for different voices … of course it is. Can’t stand Elisabeth Hasselbeck but she belongs on The View absolutely . And in the same spirit, I suppose, Jennifer Lopez belonged at the 2008 Women’s Conference?

Clown The real star of The City Whitney Port is getting her own “reality” spin-off. She moves to New York, she gets a “job”, there’s boy drama… and all the activity happens AROUND her instead of ABOUT her. At least that’s what it looks like from the new trailer. Whitney stands around with her mouth By Lainey • Oct 23, 2008 04:04 am
On being a snob Duana: So the idea that we Canadian folks are supposed to be the tough ones who can handle cold is a myth. Because I have seen British girls out on the town.
