Nicole Richie - spills, chills, & more pills

nicole richieCelebrity pill popper Nicole Richie is back in the hospital. Now if you'll recall Nic had quite a fondness for the pharmaceuticals. Back in her heyday she's pop 50 soma and 50 vicodin per day. She cleaned up her act after she got pregnant. We were all very proud of her.

Then some time back nix got into a minor car accident. Now that's the most dangerous and vulnerable time for a pill popper, for obvious reason. Just look at poor old Steven Tyler. He'd fought a 20 year on going battle against Valium and other assorted goodies. He was holding his own too until that fateful day when he fell off the stage at a concert. The very next day he was video taped at a Boston area liquor store making a take out in a brown paper bag. Now Aerosmith says that they're looking for a new lead singer (Hey boys, I hear that David Coverdale is available - in fact the real Robert Plant is also at loose ends!). Meanwhile Steve is telling every one that he wants to take his career in a more authentic direction. Just like John Lennon after the Beatles - wow what integrity!



That brings us back to poor fragile Nicole Richie. She's not insulting out intelligence by telling us that she's going in a more authentic direction. She's also not telling us that she's exhausted or dehydrated either. That would be beneath her. She is saying via her PR minions that she has a touch of pneumonia. Well at least she's not claiming to have H1N1!

    Warning to Children

    Children, if you dare to think
    Of the greatness, rareness, muchness
    Fewness of this precious only
    Endless world in which you say
    You live, you think of things like this:
    Blocks of slate enclosing dappled
    Red and green, enclosing tawny
    Yellow nets, enclosing white
    And black acres of dominoes,
    Where a neat brown paper parcel
    Tempts you to untie the string.
    In the parcel a small island,
    On the island a large tree,
    On the tree a husky fruit.
    Strip the husk and pare the rind off:
    In the kernel you will see
    Blocks of slate enclosed by dappled
    Red and green, enclosed by tawny
    Yellow nets, enclosed by white
    And black acres of dominoes,
    Where the same brown paper parcel -
    Children, leave the string alone!
    For who dares undo the parcel
    Finds himself at once inside it,
    On the island, in the fruit,
    Blocks of slate about his head,
    Finds himself enclosed by dappled
    Green and red, enclosed by yellow
    Tawny nets, enclosed by black
    And white acres of dominoes,
    With the same brown paper parcel
    Still untied upon his knee.
    And, if he then should dare to think
    Of the fewness, muchness, rareness,
    Greatness of this endless only
    Precious world in which he says
    he lives - he then unties the string.

    Robert Graves

    George Orwell’s 6 Rules for Effective Writing

    1. Never use a metaphor, simile, or other figure of speech which you are used to seeing in print.

    2. Never use a long word where a short one will do.

    3. If it is possible to cut a word out, always cut it out.

    4. Never use the passive where you can use the active.

    5. Never use a foreign phrase, a scientific word, or a jargon word if you can think of an everyday English equivalent.

    6. Break any of these rules sooner than saying anything outright barbarous.
