Long celebration yesterday. Drank some beer and wine, cleaned the house with Marie and the kids, took everyone to the drinking club for dinner, rented a movie (teen comedy *[John Tucker Must Die](http://movies.yahoo.com/shop?d=hv&id=1809273670&cf=info&ref=thedailyeudemon.com)*, which wasn't bad, but maybe because I slept through half of it). Today, I'm just taking it easy and resting up.

Is anyone besides me (sinfully?) enjoying this [Rosie/Trump dispute](http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,238284,00.html?ref=thedailyeudemon.com)? It's nasty stuff. Both have landed accurate--and therefore painful--blows. Rosie's bald criticism of Trump is too obvious to merit much comment, but I tend to agree with Trump's slightly-more nuanced analysis of Rosie: She's out of control. I'd even go a little bit further: She's out of control, and no one wants to stop her because she's the most visible lesbian in America and people in the entertainment industry don't want to take down a lesbian. I could be wrong, of course, but can anyone else explain how that unpleasant figure continues to get media time?

[A sign that the fashion world hasn't gone wholly mad](http://www.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/europe/12/22/italy.fashion.ap/index.html?ref=thedailyeudemon.com):

> Italy's fashion industry on Friday signed a code of conduct aimed at fighting anorexia among women and the vogue for stick-thin models. The self-regulatory code, drawn up with the Italian government, requires models to show medical proof they do not suffer from eating disorders, bans models younger than 16 and calls for a commitment to add larger sizes to fashion collections.

Sounds like a moderate-enough approach, and it's better than the scary demand from some quarters that fashion designers use overweight models.

PSA: Blogging will be unsteady for the next week. I will post something every day, but the quality will be uneven (as if that's something new). I hope everyone has a great Christmas and New Years.
