Fore! Hopper's ridin' easy no more
"Dennis Hopper playing golf is one of the first signs of the
apocalypse. It's true -- he's become a Republican." -- Kris Kristofferson in the forthcoming issue of Esquire - - - - - - - - - - - - Their kiss is on Guinness' list ... Talk about a monster mash. An Israeli couple has earned a spot in "The Guinness
Book of World Records" for locking lips longer than anyone else
in recorded history. Dror Orpaz and Karmit Tsubera kissed for
30 hours and 45 minutes in a make-out marathon held in Tel Aviv's main

On Wednesday, the Minnesota governor told the Associated Press that Ali was his "idol," adding that Ali was "someone I looked up to from a very young age." Ventura says he plans to take Ali's gift with him even after he leaves office. (We can hardly wait.) "If you get it from a stranger, you usually donate it," he explains. "If it was from a friend who was a friend prior to the election, you keep it." We just hope he doesn't try to use them on his arch foe (and Salon columnist) Garrison Keillor in the meantime ... - - - - - - - - - - - - About the writer Sound off - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Search Salon - - - - - - - - - - - - Become a Salon member.Click here.
