Idle Minds Want to Know

The former host of Fox News' The Heartland with John Kasich and semi-regular on The O'Reilly Factor, former congressman and gay accusation victim John Kasich is currently the managing director of Lehman Brothers' investment banking division. Or at least what's left of it. So begs the question: Find a job at another banking firm, or make a grand return to the television dial?

malwarelamag.jpg Why Google ranks LAMag.com as the first result for "Los Angeles magazine" searches, but also lists the website with a "malware" warning, claiming the site may infect your computer. As such, Google won't even automatically link you to the site; you have to enter the web address manually and assume the risk. Maybe they know something we don't?

… just how coincidental it is that the National Enqurier – owned by American Media Inc., which Clinton family friend Ron Burkle is looking to buy – pieces together a "secret love child" story about John Edwards just in time for the Iowa primary.

…Why Keith Olbermann refuses to comprehend the term "four-day weekend." The hardworking MSNBC pundit's bespectacled mug interrupted our lazy respite by popping up last night on The Simpsons (in all his jaundiced yellow/cartoon glory) and then again during the halftime of the NBC Sunday Night Football game—which, incidentally, featured the undefeated Patriots coming this-close to losing to the Philadelphia Eagles, much to the chagrin of loyal Pats fans/scary bookie types.

…why Judith Regan turned down a reported $6.5 million settlement offer and decided she'd rather take her chances in court, accuse her former bosses of colluding with News Corp. and claim she was fired not for greenlighting an offensive step-by-step guide to double homicide but, rather, as part of some giant conspiracy to get Rudy Giuliani elected president?

Whether anyone else was slightly uncomfortable upon discovering that a lengthy article (in Saturday's New York Post) about murdered "realtor to the stars" Linda Stein was immediately followed by an advertisement for an NYC brokerage firm.

Bizarre coincidence? Or a hilarious prank by the ad/sales department?

If a new poll suggesting that Stephen Colbert could be the presidential frontrunner within a month is to be believed, at what point does his publicity-fueled political campaign stop being a hilarious mockery of the campaign trail and start being an ominous sign that our country is on the brink of willful self-destruction, and gradually shifting closer and closer towards an irreversible state of moral and financial bankruptcy?

By throwing its 100 Hottest Bachelors party tonight at, ahem, Hawaiian Tropic Zone, is Gotham magazine trying to suggest half of its list isn't gay? Or are they just over-compensating? (We'll find out for you tonight.)

How exactly Debra Messing managed to get herself picked as a judge on the finale of last season's Project Runway. Are we the only ones who seem to notice this woman ALWAYS LOOKS LIKE TRASH? Giant muu-muu? Side-boob bearing tank top, complete with matching skort?? Come on, people, GET WITH IT.

We feel like we're taking crazy pills.

Did Page Six Score A Home Run? Or Just A Stolen Base?

If yesterday's Page Six "revealed" Mickey Mantle's fondest memory of Yankee Stadium (it was, as they say, a "job" well done, under the right field bleachers) then why is that we already read the exact same anecdote on the internet…more than a year ago?
