Yule be seeing them soon
Twenty year🅺s ago Paul Giamatti in big♓gie “Sideways.”
The director-writer was Alexander ♑Payne, he nabbed an Oscar.
The pair currently reunited for the Christmasy “The Holdovers.”
Giamatti, playing a professor stuck with misfit students: “I actually went to prep school like the one in the movie. My father was a Yale professor, mౠom a teacher. My grandparents were all teachers. My preparation’s from that.”
Payne, who once challenged Giamatti to read from the Omaha phonebook, says,🌳 “The guyജ’s brilliant. Most well-read human I know.”
Omaha phone book? Imagine if he read froꦰm a Washington, DC, notebo🦩ok.
Self-governing
One thing people do not understand about Biden: He doesn’t really care.
Only cared for two things in his life. A long time do nothing in DC, he only thirsted for The Job. Desperately wan💜ted to be president.
And two? Family. His — not yours. He got what he wanted. All he ꦏever wanꩲted.
And, far as he’s concerned, the rest of this whole effing w🌸orld can basically go to hell.
Celeb spots & stops
Nancy Pelosi into the Regency schlepping a bag so small it barely held private numbers of those who don’t call her anymore . . . Home improvement guy Ken Langone’s supersize yacht “World” docked at Pier 92 with security larger than the crew. He raked in Chinese food with friends . . . Lori Loughlin doing time this time 🥃at the Carlyle. Sipped drinks at Bemelmans with friends. Brooke Shields there, too, did autographs for a fan . . . Liza Minnelli organizing for an upcoming movie role about an artist . . . Joni Mitchell hunting for a shot at singing here again. She could slug it “Joni Jam.”
They’re De-vesting
Ron DeSantis. Several donors want to un-donor him.
Obliged to cut them rไefund checks, he🅷’s upset. Looking to minimize stories about these refunds.
Some who want money back said he lost 𝐆them when his biggest issue became Mickey Mouse. Do not ask me how I know this. I know this.
Doc appt pending

Natural talent
Don’t say I’m not trying to help you. Comes the Academy of Art’s “Take Home a Nude” auction. Two hundred works offered online to fund scholarships.
Listen, if you get one of them, make sure it’⛎s well-hung.
Intentional acts
The Hamas charter calls for murdering Jews. Its current horror was not only destroying Israel, kidnapping the elderly, killing the ill and t💃he babies primarily to free “Palestine.🌱”
Hamas was simply living up to its charter.
Soon due new credit card commercials: “Tonight, steak in Los Angeles, tomorrow, teriyaki in Tokyo, th🎐is weekend, bankruptcy in Manhattan.”
Definitely in New York, kids, definitely in New York.
