Potpourri IX
I read where an enterprising fellow of Indian extraction plans to open the first Playboy Club in Goa, an island off the sub-continent. It has been established that the "girls" will wear bunny ears but their proposed attire is still being negotiated. Apparently they will be considered "hostesses" and not waitresses. In the beginning it is expected that the first wave of bunnies will be imported. Anyway, how can you do the "bunny dip" wearing a sari. Stay tuned.
Dateline Jerusalem - The Palestinian Authority announced it is expected to exhume the body of Yasir Arafat to check for poison. A Swiss lab detected traces of unusually high levels of a toxic isotope on some of his personal effects. French, Swiss and Russian teams will be testing later this month. He died in 2004 at age 75.
Position Open - The last prominent hostess in the Washington D.C. social circle was Susan Mary Alsop, wife of the late columnist Joseph Alsop. She was preceded by Perle Mesta, (the Hostess with the Mostest) - after that there were Pamela Harriman and Katherine Graham. It appears there is a void now so polish up those resumes, purchase a home in Georgetown and send out those invitations.
(This routine seemed to work in Tampa, Florida)
Overworked word of the week = HUGE..........for emphasis it can be HUUUUGE - or as a certain TV anchor states HUGE, HUGE. It has now rivaled and overtaken Woody Allen's favorite GIGANTIC.

(Pausing now for Thanksgiving Holiday - will resume later this month)
