Great Stuff 5-11-08: Last-minute Mother’s Day ideasMay 9th, 2008, 1:28 pm by Sam MittelsteadtYou DID remember it’s Mother’s Day, right? My problem is that I always remember it from a planning point of view … but then Tuesday or Wednesday rolls around and — what the?! Why is that box still sitting on my couch waiting to be mailed? Why didn’t you buy a card to go with it? If your mother, like mine, lives across the country, you’re pretty much out of luck except for that mandatory phone call. It is, after all, the busiest holiday for phone calls (but the Monday after Thanksgiving is actually the busiest day of the entire year, according to the Urban Legends Reference Page Web site). But count your blessings if Mom lives nearby — you’ve got a few chances to pick up one of these last-minute gifts! What’s in Store: BabetteMay 8th, 2008, 4:40 pm by Sam Mittelsteadt

When the girls get home from saying goodbye to ka-TAR-zhe-na, the realize that some evil madman has vandalized their house, covering their walls with poster-size prints of – agh! – Saleisha.

Dominique says when she first saw Saleisha during the previous cycle, she knew she would win. “I guess you could say I’m the Saleisha of this competition,” she adds. If by that she means both appeared on “America’s Next Top Model” and then never heard from again, she might be right! About that whole victory thing … not so much.

I don’t know if it’s such a good idea to give away the brand of the shoe right there in the headline — I mean, some people are going to be swayed by its pedigree and not its appearance.
