Grazie! I’ll be here all week!
Blog Guy, what can you tell me about that Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi guy, who seems to be involved in lots of controversy these days? Have you seen him speak in person?
He doesn’t give speeches. He does comedy shtick. He patterns his stage act after hip ’60s comics like Shelley Berman and Bob Newhart, with imagined telephone chats.
He’s hilarious! Well, uh, actually I don’t speak Italian, but I guess he’s probably okay.
Ah. And what’s this stuff about Berlusconi’s scandals involving young women? Any truth to that?
I can’t say, but I do know that after I blogged this week about actor George Clooney’s rumored ability to get women just by gesturing what he wants, Berlusconi appeared to throw down the gauntlet, describing better-endowed chicks, as you can see in these photos below.
Thanks, but I’d rather see pictures of the chicks they got.
Sorry, this isn’t that kind of a blog.
