[Angelyne.](http://www.autonetinc.com/mike/assets/images/angelyne.jpg) Wow. Her slogan: “There’s been enough Gray and Brown. It’s time for pink.” ---

Oh, good ol’ Angelyne. She’ll never go away! (Does she still have a billboard on Sunset? I haven’t checked lately.) I’d root for her too, if I weren’t rooting for Riordan. ---

How old is she now, anyway? I think I heard that she’s been around since the sixties. ---

The real issue is that when we watch the news and read the papers, we could have [this,](http://capwiz.com/photos/Federal/147x105/40137.jpg) or [this.](http://www.angelyne.com/hol/dt/images/1_hol.jpg) Please, Californians, consider the great weight that has been thrust upon you.

I saw her once when I was shopping in a health food store. She had a cute little pink outfit and this pouty expression. She is definitely like that even when the camera is off. ---

CNN: Headline: [**Huffington will run, Springer won’t, Arnold to say**](http://www.cnn.com/2003/ALLPOLITICS/08/06/candidates.announce/index.html) I thought that “Arnold” was a reference to Gary Coleman, but after clicking on the link, I realized that they meant Schwarzenegger. American politics is increasingly surreal. ---

No way. It has to be Angelyne. She is increasingly being taken seriously by national politicians. Here [Dick Gephardt](http://www.lvrj.com/lvrj_home/2002/Aug-30-Fri-2002/photos/gephardt.jpg) demonstrates how he would handle Angelyne. ---

It’s getting even better! In addition to [Angelyne,](http://www.worldartists.com/angelyne_postcard.jpg) the governor’s race now has a porn star named [Mary Carey.](http://www.onlineathens.com/images/080803/extras.jpg) I think these two ought to run together. I don’t care what the polls say – the pair look like they’re way out in front. Their platform? Shoes. They could run on a split ticket. ---

And now I can prove to BIL that Angelyne and “the porn star who wants to run for governor” are **not** the same person! I kept telling him, “Angelyne is a former stripper, not a porn star…Yes, there is a difference…Well, the bottom line is, I saw that porn star on the news and she was not Angelyne!” Now I can show him the link.
