P.S. Yeah, the Smoking Gun is a really neat site.

Here's the URL to the hope page.

thesmokinggun.com

They have featured documents which change every few days, sometimes more often. But the archives are also fascinating. Just click on the Archive button and enjoy. They are a fantastic source of original documents for all sorts of controversial issues, plus a whole lot of just plain fun gossipy items, like the things some of the stars demand in their contracts for their performances. (For example, Paul McCartney won't allow any furniture made of animal skin or animal print, even if artificial fabrics. thesmokinggun.com Also, he is very fond of flowers. His must have six 6 foot full and leafy (not trees!) floor plants and two full and leafy four foot plants. Plus some very specific things he wants in floral arrangements. thesmokinggun.com

Personally, I think it's kind of fun from time to time to peer in on these demands. Some are pretty kinky. Many require, for example, not just bottled water but specific brands of bottled water cooled to specific temperatures. Talk about tempermental!

Anyhow, it's a really fun site. It and Snopes are two of my favorite recreational sites.
