As do I. I am shocked and appalled by David's decision to out your
girlfriend in this newsgroup. Being a homosexual himself, David is
(or should be) held up to a higher standard when it comes to accepting
the comfort levels that people have in discussing their sexuality in
public. That he has chosen to so brazenly parade your secrets and
the secrets of your loved one is just as despicable as Judith's
habit of fabricating stories about my personal life.
At least when *I* say something about a person, it's only to
repeat something that has already been well discussed. Yes, I
may not exactly smell of roses, but I'm covered in much less
shit than either David or Judith, two people who deserve to
be locked in eternal combat, rather like those matter/antimatter
twins in that Star Trek episode.

I second that Nancy. Jane take a little break if you like but
come back ok? I didn't see your original post and I never
bother to read the fights, I'm here for the gossip and the
trailer park parties. But do come back.

Oh for Chrissake would you shut the fuck up. One of the most
intelligent members of this group feels the well-justified need to
leave and all you can do is use it to your own end to start trashing
someone. Who gives a flying fuck if your stories are true or not?? If
you consider revealing facts of people's personal lives that you know
will hurt them just so that you can be "honest" the thing tthat will
make you friends and influence people, then I feel VERY fucking sorry
for you. We're not talking "you're full of shit" or "you never slept
with ______ " kind of traditional Usenet flames here, we're talking
about personal hostilitites that go above and beyond what anyone here
would consider decent. You don't even stop at telling the "truth".
You taunt people until they can no longer hang around here like you've
just done with Jane.
If you consider eveyone such a bunch of cretins, why are you bothering
to hang out here?? Obviously it's because you get some kind of
perverse pleasure from your sadistic attacks on people's characters
and/or airing their private pains and problems. At the risk of using a
stupid newbis statement, GET A FUCKING LIFE and get the fuck out of
here!!! Most sensible people don't stay where they're not wanted.
Hopefully Jane will reconsider and come back because she is a valued
poster. Hell, even the guy who claims to have slept with Tori is at
least on topic and the dialogue on that topic has been intelligent
... something that you probably don't understand.
I left this group about a year ago partly because I was tired of the
flame wars but I'll be fucking damned if I'll let the likes of you
drive me off this time. I enjoy MOST of these folks, eben the ones I
disagree with, and I definitely enjoyed Jane. People like you are what
killfiles are for.
If anyone else reading this feels some of these facts apply to them,
so be it. Anyone behaving this way deserves to be thought of in the
same warm terms.
Fuck that felt good. We now resume our regularly scheduled gossip as I
go looking for my nerve pills .

Try reading before you go off half-cocked blathering like an
idiot. I said it didn't matter who was right or wrong. Your using
personal information about people as a weapon against them is wrong.
Winning at any cost is dead wrong if all you end up doing is hurting
innocent people. Your argument appears to be with Judith and yet
your"truths" that you seem so determined to make known aren't even
about her. Most people woula aim their barbs at the person whose
reputation they're trying to destroy. I really don't give a flying
fuck who's telling the truth. In this case, the truth does NOT set you
free. It makes you look like the asshole that you insist on being.

Ever heard the expression "if you can't say something nice, don't
say anything at all"? There's no need to lie but there's also no need
to be so blunt in telling the truth that you make everyone's life
miserable wo happens to be unfortunate enough to be a target of yours.
When the "truth" you tell is none of your fucking business to be
discussing, I see no point in setting the record straight if that's
what you feel you're doing. Why do we all need to know who is doing
whom and who has medical or emotional problems ... unless they happen
to be in showbiz of course.
>And, as therapists are so fond of saying, you own your own emotions.
>If the truth bothers you, perhaps you should examine WHY that is
>instead of blaming the truth for your troubles.
People have the right to privacy. They have the right to reveal
only as much of themselves as they feel others need to know or they
want to share. Even those in public life don't owe the public any more
than the fulfillment of their duties. We may enjoy speculating about
people's sexual preference but they're under no obligation to tell us.

Darlin', I have long ago come to grips with who I am (including my
shortcomings). That doesn't mean the world at large needs to know what
those are although they're welcome to speculate. Your opinion of me
... and of most people in this NG .. is just that, an opinion and you
have a serious problem if you think it's anything more. You're
entitles to it no matter how assinine it might be.
I think the problem can be traced back to when people
in this group started meeting each other in real like.
Then some found that others weren't quite as they expected.
And since then the group has regularly been filled with
bitching and sniping. On the one hand, some of it is pretty
juicy stuff, but on the other, most of is of the "did so!
did not!" variety. Maybe we need a reviewing committee
for meta-gossip - or another newsgroup entirely.
alt.showbiz.gossip.gossip, anyone?

with more in the works--no fireworks, just pleasant conversation.

I thought "Maggie May" was Margaret Trudeau, the Canadian Prime
Minister's wife who slept with anyone who charted on Billboard's Hot
100. Or was that "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes?" Naah, that was Judy Collins.
How about Gordon Lightfoot's "Sundown"? No, that was John Belushi's
speedball date Kathy Smith (was that her name?)...

Alexandra may have a modicum of class, but calling Judith classy is
merely another indication of how detached you are from the real world,
much like when you tell perfect strangers they must be me.

Actually, the problem is that Melody Clark seems to have had problems
getting her daily dosage of Zoloft calibrated, and runs around telling
perfect strangers that (1) the I does her favors and (2) if you don't
agree with Melody Clark, you must be Ron Hogan in disguise.

I often wonder if some of the showbiz personalities who've been skewered
here are now reading this group and laughing their asses off.

Grace, I wasn't implying that all such meetings end in disasters, just
that they sometimes do. And anyway, it wouldn't be a problem if some
people managed to keep their personal lives separate from the group.
There are thousands of people reading this group who personally
couldn't give a toss who is doing who with what.

Didn't he write a song about his wife too?
Carly Simon's "You're So Vain" was directed at Warren Beatty.
: I thought "Maggie May" was Margaret Trudeau, the Canadian Prime
: Minister's wife who slept with anyone who charted on Billboard's Hot
Margaret Trudeau would have been about 15 or 16 when "Maggie May" was
released, and I don't think she would have qualified as an older woman...
unless I'm confused and "Maggie May" was by Bill Wyman.
Disappointing gossip about Margaret Trudeau and Mick Jagger - she launched
herself at him like a heat seeking missle, but he dodged her advances, and
said in an interview that he wasn't interested in her. I think he said
something like "for god's sake, she's a mum!"

I believe it was Warren Beatty, who she'd had a small fling (a
flingette) with. Mick Jagger actually sings back up in "You're So
Vain".
I don't think it could have been Taylor -- as I recall, they didn't get
involved until after the song came out. Besides, the problem she had
with Taylor wasn't his vanity, it was his heroin use.
As I understand it, she's always refused to say about whom "You're So
Vain" was written, but everyone's always assumed it was Warren Beatty.

At the time it came out, there was much speculation that it was about
Mick Jagger (it would probably have amused him to sing backup on a song
about himself) or Warren Beatty.
Didn't Elton John and Bernie Taupin write "Philadelphia Freedom" for
Billie Jean King? Seems like I read this somewhere.
