For Congress: The Steel Butterfly
A former first lady of The Philippines, Imelda Marcos has filed as a candidate for congress for the Ilocos Norte district. Back when she was the wife of President Ferdinand Marcos she was known as the “Steel Butterfly,” presumably because of her determination and not because she drank nectar.It’s a congressional seat that’s being vacated by her son, Ferdinand Marcos, Jr., who is running for a senate seat.
Happy Birthday, Britney
Hey, we almost forgot — remember Britney Spears? Of course you do. She’s still among the most-searched-for celebrities on the internet (or does that mean people don’t remember her?).Today is Britney’s 28th birthday. MTV is celebrating by showing this video for “3”, which, oddly enough, features Britney Spears, extra dancers, skimpy outfits and a whole lot of gyratin’.
Cormac McCarthy’s Typewriter
We interrupt the saga of Tiger Woods, Elin Nordegren, Rachel Uchitel and Jaimee Grubbs for some even more exciting news: Cormac McCarthy is auctioning off his beat-up old typewriter!

Jaimee Grubbs PHOTOS
Here are pictures of Jaimee Grubbs, the woman US magazine claims has been a consort of golfer Tiger Woods.
How Old is Jaimee Grubbs?
When was Jaimee Grubbs born? We say 1985.We’re taking US magazine’s word for it here. They say Jaimie Grubbs was 21 years old when (they allege) she began a relationship with golfer Tiger Woods in April of 2007.Now, in December of 2009, they say Grubbs is 24 years old. Doing the math, that gives her a moment of birth between April and December of 1985.
Wikipedia and Jaimee Grubbs
Wikipedia has no profile of Jaimee Grubbs so far.Which is interesting, because a few days ago we noted that Wikipedia had no profile of Rachel Uchitel, either. (She was the first to be connected to Tiger Woods in a hubba-hubba way, in case you’re keeping score.) In that case, a (admirably) high-minded Wikipedia editor said “We are not here to repeat National Enquirer rumours.”
“More ‘Tiger Ladies’ Show Up on Scorecard”
If nothing else, the Tiger Woods fracas is a field day for headline writers.This particular piece suggests that Jaimee Grubbs was paid $100,000 by US magazine to talk about her alleged affair with Woods.
Jaimee Grubbs: Probably Not Good News for Tiger Woods
It’s shameful, but we appear to be experiencing Tiger Woods schadenfreude. He doesn’t really deserve our “misfortune joy” — who does? — though his own schadenFräulein seem to be causing the problem.
