Arnold Schwarzenegger...acting career on hold! Maria Shriver hires divorce attorney!

In the wake of the scandal which has rocked Hollywood - who knew? - Arnold Schwarzenegger has just announced through his agent that the former Governor has nixed his plans to return to movie acting to deal with some personal issues.

You don't say!

In recent days, Schwarzenegger was also excited about an animated series about to launch - known as the Governator - but inside sources have confided that those plans are on hold at the moment, too.

Meanwhile, word out of Maria Shriver's camp is that the celebrated journalist (a member of the well-known "Royal" Kennedy clan) has signed on a high-powered divorce attorney to represent her interests in what now appears to be a vigorous fight over the couple's assets.

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned!

In addition, some State Authorities are questioning whether Schwarzenegger used State funds to pay for security details for his "extended" family, while he was Governor of California.

You know what the say.

In the past twenty-four hours the shit has really hit the fan as the dust continues to stir up on the heels of revelations about the love-child scandal now plaguing the Austrian-born actor.

Images circulating Internet in wake of scandal!

$1.00 joints...offered in mean streets of San Francisco! Battle rages over pot dispensaries!

Don't Bogart that joint!


 

As the battle rages over the legality of pot dispensaries around the country (in respect to licensing, for starters) growers are braving the political (and economic) storm by reaching out to consumers first-hand (and cutting out the middle-man in the process).

For example, yesterday, a casually-dressed pedestrian offered me a joint for a buck on Market Street.

Although I didn't take the enterprising marijuana salesman up on his offer (if I toke on a joint, I get lost in the pattern of a carpet) it did cause to me pause and wonder to myself.

Are the dealers checking for legal papers (prescriptions that verify the individual is entitled to partake by virtue of the compassionate use of medical marijuana laws in California) before they wrap up the sale?

Doubtful!

Notwithstanding, it should be noted that the pungent aroma of the green leafy stuff wafts daily beyond the fringes of outdoor cafes, and hangs thick in the hallways of quaint boutique Hotels around San Francisco.

Uh-huh!

This picturesque respite by the bay is going to pot, alright.

Should city officials (and law enforcement, too) just throw up their hands in despair and look the other way?

Jerry Brown...announces bid for Governor! "You the people" listen up...

Mad as Hell

(not taking it anymore)

Nobody's muscling in on my territory!

Jerry Brown called for smaller government and more clout for local officials in the decision-making process, when he announced his bid for Governor in the upcoming elections, Tuesday.

During the press junket, Brown - who was California's Governor for eight years (1975-1983) - took an obvious slap at Governor Schwarzenegger which appeared to resonate with supporters.

"Some people say that if you've been around the process, you can't handle the job, that we need to go out and find an outsider who knows virtually nothing about State government."

Enter the barbarian.

Brown - a once-handsome charismatic politician with a full-head of lustrous hair - couldn't resist a pointed quip in the aftermath of his attack.

"Well, we tried that, and it doesn't work. We found that out, that not knowing, is not good."

In a video online at his website, Brown asserted that he was the best candidate for big honcho, in so many carefully-chosen words.

"Our State is in serious trouble and the next Governor must have the preparation and the knowledge and the know-how to get California working again."

In sum, that was Brown's platform for political success.

"That's what I offer."

There were campaign promises, too.

"In this time of recession, there will be no new taxes, unless you the people vote for them."

You the people?

Ah, that has a catchy ring to it.

Jerry, you (the politician) may have something there!

Hair today

(gone tomorrow)
