Last week, Biden addressed the National Bar Association. He demanded $300,000. I hear he took less. Speech halting. Words scripted. His burble — minus explanation — said President Trump’s trashing the Constitution.
Joe Babble pumped up the Supreme Court with his ideological types, allowed transpeople into the military, supported college violations, permitted nearly 14 million foreigners through our borders and stayed caring daddy to his sticky-fingered son.
What worked with Biden was a sticky middle finger.
They built to last
Peter Kalikow. Realtor. Onetime, short-time owner of the now about-to-be countrywide NY Post. Some festivities. His invite says it’s 100 years of celebrating Kalikow’s excellence. The company. The family. “This landmark event honors a century of the Kalikow family’s legacy in New York real estate. It commemorates 100 years of leadership, innovation, and impact on the city’s skyline and communities.”
This whole city — minus those lying on the street — will all be there.
Jackman’s clean cut past
Hugh Jackman’s been in the news because of his recent divorce and more recent affair with his also recent B’way co-star Sutton Foster.
But I heard that once he did a semi-nude bathtub scene for the aulde 2001 movie “Kate & Leopold.” The director cut it. Hugh said: “Thank goodness they cut it. Now people won’t give me a hard time doing nudity.”
The director said the scene was cut because it “didn’t really fit the film, but it will definitely be in the DVD.”
“Ugh,” said Jackman. Now nobody can see it — or him — except for maybe Sutton Foster.
Hometown Bills
Bill O’Reilly: “I watched the Billy Joel documentary. We were both raised in Levittown. He in the Hicksville section, me in the Westbury precinct.
“Nobody had air-conditioning. We spent summer nights at the municipal swimming pool. Joel’s crew was right out of ‘Grease.’ Slicked hair, cigarettes, T-shirt, chewing gum. We’d sing a cappella. If you sang off-key you could wind up in the pool.”
Awaiting groom
NYC beauty shop owner who shall remain nameless — or customerless: “You see bra straps that are filthy. A man wouldn’t put on day-old socks — why do ladies do that?
“Females today need grooming. Also more sexual awakening.
“I have customers all ages but a woman doesn’t turn beautiful until she’s maybe 35. Needs character. Who wants a child?
“The right colors attract. Second is the body. Notice her tush. The curves. Her physicality. Walks well, sits well, uses all she’s got. For me she has to dress well, walk well — definitely not smell.
“I beautify women all day. I certainly don’t want to go to bed with a child.”
Some cable stations keep showing reruns of old TV series like “Dick Van Dyke” or “Laugh-In.” Forget your television set now creating exciting new content. They’re offering refills. Next year you want news? It’ll be an AI machine that looks like a juiced-up Walter Cronkite.
Only in New York, kids, only in New York.
