Birds Could Choke on the Flour, too. Duh.

Several people have told me that they used to read the Red Eye, Chicago's free daily commuter newspaper, but got tired of it's "fluff." "It's always the same." Blah blah. It took more than one issue for you to realize that? I knew it was bad from day one, but that's not why I don't read it; I don't read it because my train is so jam packed every day that there is no way I possibly could. There are, however, those who try to read it, and for that, I am thankful because I can sometimes read the back page, the gossip page. I'm sure they have some juicier name for this back cover.

Yesterday I couldn't read the back, but saw a picture of LiLo, whose gossip is really the only gossip I care about following. Since I couldn't read the text, I Googled it today, and I must say, I am glad I did.


Lindsay showers in blow! No, it's flour. An attack by French animal rights activists.

Her ladyfriend Sam Ronson gave a moving comment on the event:

"I'm pissed at the bag of flour thrown on Lindsay last night. Not because I got powdered down, but because the girl who threw it acted like an animal herself. I take that back -- it's an insult to animals to group her in with them, my dog is FAR more civilized than that person."

Ronson then pointed out, "I think there are plenty of families that could have used that flour for a meal. Nice job, lady."
