Another erratic head-scratcher from Drudge:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A44300-2003May27.html

"Houston was in Israel with her husband, rhythm and blues singer Bobby Brown, to visit "friends and family" among the Black Hebrews, an African-American community that moved to Israel in 1969 and settled in the southern town of Dimona.

On Monday, Houston told reporters in Israel's southern resort of Eilat that she was on "spiritual retreat" during which she would visit family and friends in Dimona."

A bit off topic: Matt Drudge is a moron.

Have you noticed that none of the big boffo 80's icons are reaching midlife in anything remotely approaching a graceful way? Madonna, MJ, Prince, Whitney. Is there some sort of demigod-withdrawal syndrome at play?

Well, haven't all the old stars of the last...oh...4000 years...aged gracelessly?
Think about Sinatra if you doubt me.

Pharoah: Moses, I will not let you lead the Israelites to Canaan. On whose authority will you do this?
Bobby Brown as Moses: It's my prerogative, suckah!

Apparently Sharon took time off from his busy schedule--which included addressing the Knesset to speak about the "road map"--to meet with Houston. I can just imagine the huge yawning silences.

amateurist (amateurist), Tuesday, 27 May 2003 20:32 (twenty-two years ago)

... because someone had to top Michael.

wonder if this was the scheduling conflict that prevented Sharon and Abbas from meeting today.

gabbneb (gabbneb), Tuesday, 27 May 2003 20:38 (twenty-two years ago)

Well, Sharon wanted to meet up with George Michaels as well, but they juuuuuussssst missed each other.

James Blount (James Blount), Tuesday, 27 May 2003 21:20 (twenty-two years ago)

Apparently Sharon took time off from his busy schedule ... to meet with Houston

likewise, recently Valeri Putin took off time to personally conduct the Kremlin excursion for Paul McCartney in Moscow...

and some poor California congressman had to deal with Michael Jackson's fast food querys.

James Blount (James Blount), Tuesday, 27 May 2003 21:55 (twenty-two years ago)

(damn, Putin's really "Vladimir", not "Valeri", ain't he, heh-heh?)

Bobby Brown: Greatest Blues Groaner since those halycon days of Blind Lemon Jefferson and Robert Johnson.
I'd love to hear Muddy Waters version of "My Perogative"

rhythm and blues singer Bobby Brown

A bit of a stretch, no?

Are the group that Whitney and Bobby are supposedly sporting the same "Black Hebrews" as the colorfully-dressed gents who gather on 14th Street and yell arguable passages of scripture at passing white devils like m'self?

Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 30 May 2003 14:34 (twenty-two years ago)

supporting, not sporting....although maybe they're doing that to.

Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 30 May 2003 14:35 (twenty-two years ago)

Whatevah, Sharon just needed to score a big fat fuckin 8-ball, and he knew just who to call!

nickalicious (nickalicious), Friday, 30 May 2003 15:02 (twenty-two years ago)

Alex I think those are "Black Zionists" and they aren't from Israel but rather Irregulon-8
