Hey Warren Buffet,

Why don’t you help Omaha out instead of hobnobbing with politicians in D.C.?

As a resident of Omaha Nebraska, and a kind of sort of neighbor of Warren Buffet (isn’t living a mile away pretty close to being a neighbor?). I don’t have any idea what the guy is thinking most of the time.  I mean this guy’s mind is completely baffling to me.  I guess Warren has been telling the media and every politician that will listen about the glorious idea of raising capital gains taxes.  I guess this will “level” the playing field and make old Warren feel less guilty about being rich.  Personally, I think Warren should start feeling good about being rich and start spending money to enjoy it.  After all, what would be of better use to the economy, Warren droning on and on about how his secretary pays less taxes or Warren blowing tons of money in Omaha’s local economy to boost the local GDP?  Hell, if I was as rich as old Warren, I would buy way more than just a big yacht like your small time rich guy, I would build a castle!  I’m not talking in Hollywood type jest here either. Like a really, really big house or something.  I’m talking about a freaking huge Medieval castle with ramparts, a moat, huge feasts every day, and people hired on to act as the local medieval population.  I will have people play knights, surfs, counts, and barons. This will be like government stimulus on super steroids and a lot more bad ass than namby pamby community reinvestment nonsense. It will likely add more value as well, I mean what would you rather have, a road repaved for the sixth time this year clogging up traffic or a big huge castle right outside of town. I will hire all unemployed people too and reduce Omaha’s unemployment rate to zero.

Unfortunately for all the citizens of Omaha, Warren is a guilty, guilty man for being so rich. So instead of enjoying a lavish lifestyle, he lives so humbly it could make a priest blush for living so lavishly. So not only does Warren not buy a Huge Freaking Cool Castle (HFCC) he does not even buy that big of a house.  You can almost feel his guilt while driving by it.  Think of all those jobs that he could have created if he’d just spend a little more on himself, but nooooo, he keeps all of that money to himself, permanently sealed up. He is some kind of Walking Keynsian Liquidity Trap (WKLT).

So Warren feels guilty about spending money on himself.  Well, why doesn’t he do what every other Billionaire does?  Invest huge amounts of money in his home town!  Hell, we just built a new stadium so we could keep the college world series in quaint little Omaha, but, where was Warren to help out with that?  Hell, Mr. “Badass” T. Boone dropped tons of money on his alma mater’s stadium, why can’t he be the local rich guy?  But no, we got dreary old Warren.  Speaking of T. Boone, at least he had some REALLY crazy, REALLY big schemes like millions of windmills going from Canada all the way down to the tip of Argentina or something.  What do we get from old Warren?  The same dreary old stuff we have been hearing since the New Deal.  There has to be something that Warren will spend money on in Omaha.  Wait a second, the food banks in Omaha are really low… how about pitching in there Warren?  Well, guess not, Warren has to go get some medals from some shifty politicians.

Well, I guess old Warren wants to be remembered by some dull old tax increase that reminds me of his drab old house.  Personally, I would want to be remembered as that “crazy rich guy that built that freaking huge castle right outside of town”. I would even settle for the guy that chips into the local food banks but, not old Warren. I would like to tell Warren to live it up, and that what he does adds value to society so stopping feeling so guilty. Alas, I guess Omaha is just a little too small for big hearted Warren Buffet to spend money on.

  4. Celine Dion had a hilarious reaction to her hit, My Heart Will
    Go On, in a new video this week.

    The iconic songstress, 56, who is best known for the 1997 Titanic soundtrack song, was
    seen attempting to stream her rendition of Edith Piaf’s Hymne à l’amour – but Siri failed to understand her
    and instead suggested My Heart Will Go On.

    In the clip, Dion says: ‘Hey Siri, play Hymne à l’amour by Céline Dion?’ with Siri responding: ‘I cannot find that
    track by Céline Dion but here is My Heart Will Go On. ”

    A frustrated Dion said: ‘No! Hello, No, no, no, Hey Siri, can you play Hymne à l’amour by Céline Dion please?’

    Again, Siri replied: ‘I cannot find that track by Céline Dion but here is My Heart Will Go On.’

    Dion burst out laughing and said ‘never mind!’ before suggesting she ask the question in a strong French accent.

    After this Siri responded: ‘Okay, here is ‘Hymne à l’amour by Céline Dion.’

    Dion looked shocked before smiling and giving the thumbs up.

    In July Dion made a musical comeback with the track at the 2024 Paris Olympic Opening Ceremony amid her battle with incurable condition, stiff-person syndrome.

    28 years after making her Olympic debut in 1996 at Atlanta’s stadium, Celine proved she’s still got it following her emotional act in the French city at the Eiffel Tower.

    And after bringing fans to tears, Celine reflected on the iconic moment with a heartfelt message on X.

    She wrote: ‘I’m honored to have performed tonight, for the Paris 2024 Opening Ceremony, and so full of joy to be back in one of my very favorite cities!

    ‘Most of all, I’m so happy to be celebrating these amazing athletes, with all their stories of sacrifice and determination, pain and perseverance.

    ‘You should all be so proud, we know how hard you have worked
    to be the best of the best. Stay focused, keep going, my heart is with you!
    – Celine xx…’

    Celine looked incredible in a shimmering silver gown as she performed in front of the Eiffel Tower.

    She gave a rendition of Hymne à L’amour, which was originally sung by French music icon Edith Piaf.

    The song was originally released in 1950 and its title
    translates into English as ‘Hymn to Love.’

    The My Heart Will Go On songstress looked to be on the verge of tears as she finished the performance to cheers from the crowd, whilst viewers
    at home were also left emotional.

  5. Beyonce went topless as she paid homage to iconic duo Prince and Apollonia in her
    latest Halloween costume.

    The superstar, 43, took to Instagram on Friday with her second look from spooky season, after previously dressing up as Betty Davis.

    She channeled both the late Purple Rain hitmaker and his protégée turned
    lover, Mexican model Patricia ‘Apollonia’ Kotero. 

    While roleplaying Apollonia, the Single Ladies hitmaker sizzled in a plunging
    black lace bustier under an open tuxedo jacket, before taking it off and posing in nothing but
    metallic purple gloves. 

    Meanwhile her version of Prince consisted of a
    purple coat with a white frilly shirt, black lace underwear,
    and a matching purple guitar.

    She wore raven curly tresses that cascaded down her shoulders, and accessorized her Apollonia look with a chunky diamond necklace.

    She followed it up with her as Prince sitting on a vintage red car and holding up her guitar, while sporting
    a short curly-hair look. 

    Her fans went wild for the outfits, with one writing: ‘ROCK ERA LOADING MAMAMAMMAAAAAA.’

    Apollonia had the lead female role in Prince’s 1984 film Purple Rain,

    Appollonia and Prince parted ways in 1985 but she managed to stay in the spotlight with a role on the soap
    Falcon Crest and in 1988 the release of an eponymous album.

    What’s YOUR take on Beyonce’s Halloween costume?

    Comment now
    It is not clear when Apollonia’s relationship with Prince began or ended as he was dating
    another one of the stars of Purple Rain during the making of the film,
    Susan Moonsie.

    Prince and Beyonce famously joined forces onstage at the 2004
    Grammy Awards, performing a medley that included his iconic 1984 single
    Purple Rain. 

    Their duet also included her fan favorite number Crazy
    In Love, which saw him accompany her on the electric guitar.

    Afterwards, Prince gave an interview in which he shared his appraisal of Beyonce’s musical abilities
    when they worked together.

    ‘I was really curious as to how much she knew musically, and I was really pleased
    to find out that she knew a lot about scales – Mixolydian scales and Egyptian styles and different things
    like that,’ he said.

    ‘And I was just trying to show her some chords on the piano and help her to respect the fact that
    if she learns piano à la Aretha Franklin and Ray Charles and
    things like that, the sky’s the limit as to what she could do, ’cause she’s so very talented.’

    Prince died of an accidental overdose in 2016 at the
    age of just 57.

    Earlier this year Beyonce posted a heartwarming Instagram montage of herself wearing a t-shirt promoting Prince
    on what would have been his 66th birthday. 

    Beyonce’s Prince costume comes after she transformed into a busty Betty Davis

    legs and curves.

    She completed the ensemble with white cowboy boots and a dramatic pop of red lipstick.

  8. Red takes center stage as the hottest color of the holiday season.

    All red looks have been trending with the fashion set for some time, but
    after Rihanna attended the Fenty Hair launch party in a monochromatic
    look accessorized with multiple ruby baubles,
    red-on-red became cooler than ever. 

    The ‘Stay’ hitmaker donned a custom red leather Khaite jacket and skirt with ruby and diamond jewelry by Sabyasachi, David Webb and Reza.

    Monochromatic outfits, particularly in red, exude confidence and
    sophistication. 

    With the vibrant color being synonymous with the holiday season, it’s a natural choice for parties and festive gatherings.

    By also accessorizing with ruby jewelry (à
    la Rihanna) you can add a touch of luxury to even the simplest of separates.

    Unlike your grandmother’s precious jewels, today’s ruby designs are being reimagined by edgy
    jewelers that aren’t taking the gem so seriously.

    Rihanna was photographed dripping in rubies at the Fenty Hair launch party and just like that…
    they are in vogue

    Rubies are often referred to as the ‘king of gemstones’ and
    their vibrant color – caused by the presence of chromium – is often associated
    with passion, love, and power. 

    The name ‘ruby’ comes from the Latin word ‘ruber’ which means red. 

    Rubies are incredibly sought after for their beauty and durability, they are ranked 9 on the Mohs scale of
    hardness (qualitative scale that measures the relative
    hardness of minerals and other materials by their resistance to scratching),
    second to diamonds.

    Beyond their sparkle and strength, they have held cultural significance for centuries.

    Throughout history, rubies have been associated with nobility and wealth, often adorning the crowns of
    kings and queens. They are also believed to bring good fortune and protection to their wearer.

    According to Melee the Show founders Lauren Wolf and Rebecca Overmann, ruby jewelry is on the rise.

    The fine jewelry trade show connects buyers
    and designers, with the next shows taking place in New York
    (February 1-3) and Tucson (February 5-7).

    ‘From bold gemstones to intricate craftsmanship, our designers bring
    rubies to life in ways that inspire and captivate,’ said the duo.

    Anthony Lent, Fannie Thomas, Heather Guidero, Jake Matluck, Amali, Karin Jacobson, Marian Maurer and Ciara Bowles are some of
    the exhibiting designers who work with rubies.

  11. Anthony Albanese has tried to claim his relationship with Alan Joyce was a strictly professional one between a Prime Minister and a corporate titan,
    as he battles claims the Qantas boss was his
    ‘personal travel agent’ for free flights and upgrades.

    However that characterization of the relationship was at odds with that made by Mr Joyce,
    who said he was ‘good mates’ with Mr Albanese and had
    been ‘for years’.

    In the wake of the explosive claims that the
    Prime Minister had Mr Joyce arrange free tickets and upgrades,
    Mr Albanese distanced himself from the Qantas chief.

    When asked about about their relationship on Sunday Mr Albanese implied
    it was purely in a professional capacity, having been Transport Minister and shadow transport spokesperson before
    becoming Prime Minister. 

    ‘He (Joyce) was the CEO of the national airline … I had the same relationship
    with him that I have with John Borghetti as the CEO of Virgin,’ Mr Albanese said.

    That assessment was at odds with the many photos showing Mr Albanese and Mr Joyce apparently
    greatly enjoying each other’s company. 

    Mr Albanese and Mr Joyce were pictured in high spirits on the red carpet at
    the Qantas 100th Gala Dinner in March last year.

    In photos from the event, Mr Joyce proudly walks the red carpet with one arm around the prime minister and the other around Mr Albanese’s partner, Jodie Haydon.

    Just five months later, in August, a smiling Mr Albanese attended
    Qantas’s unveiling of it’s special ‘Yes 23′ emblazoned airplanes for the Voice referendum.

    Former Qantas CEO Alan Joyce jovially walked the red carpet with one arm around the prime
    minister and the other around his partner, Jodie Haydon for a special anniversary
    event last year

    Mr Joyce was seen touching Mr Albanese’s arm, with the
    PM bursting into laughter.

    Even when Scott Morrison was PM,  Mr Joyce enjoyed an apparently close relationship with Mr Albanese
    as the pair stood close together at the launch of the Qantas’ landmark Perth
    to London flight in March, 2018. 

    During a Senate hearing in September 2023, Mr Joyce said he
    had been ‘friends for years’ with Mr Albanese.

    Asked about why he gifted Mr Albanese’s son Nathan a membership to the prestigious and exclusive Chairman’s Lounge Mr
    Joyce refused to confirm or deny but talked up his relationship with the Prime Minister.

    ‘I’ve been good mates with Albo for some time,’ Mr Joyce said. 

    However, the then Qantas CEO refused to say whether he lobbied the
    Prime Minister on the controversial decision to lock competitor Qatar Airways out of domestic routes.

    It has since emerged in a new book about Qantas, The Chairman’s Lounge, by former Australian Financial
    Review columnist Joe Aston that Ms Haydon is also a
    Chairman’s Lounge member. 

    Mr Albanese and Mr Joyce also appeared to greatly enjoying each other’s company
    at  a Qantas event in August last year

    Anthony Albanese fires up and launches a brutal personal attack on book author

    Reports have emerged in a new book Mr Albanese received 22 upgrades from economy
    from Qantas and he would liaise personally with the former airline boss for them. 

    Aston also alleged Mr Albanese directly contacted Mr Joyce while in his various parliamentary jobs to ask for special upgrades for himself or his family.

    According to unnamed Qantas ‘insiders’ 11 of
    the 22 flights Mr Albanese received upgrades for were ‘privately funded’ and included overseas trips to Rome,
     London, Los Angeles and Honolulu, with some being for holidays.

    Mr Albanese insisted on Tuesday that the London flights was for
    work purposes and all were ‘declared in the appropriate way’.    

    Opposition Leader Peter Dutton has leapt on the
    accusations describing Mr Albanese as being the
    ‘best friend’ of Mr Joyce. 

    Mr Dutton told Sky News on Monday night it was ‘strange’ Mr
    Albanese had directly contacted Mr Joyce to request upgrades while holding a regulatory position in the transport sector.

    ‘If you’re the Transport Minister and you’re picking up the phone to one of the
    most important stakeholders in the portfolio asking for a free upgrade,
    then again, I think the Prime Minister would be able to answer those questions more
    effectively than anyone else because I’m not aware of anyone else
    having done it,’ Mr Dutton said.

    It has since emerged that Ms Haydon also has membership of the Qantas Chairman’s Lounge

    The Prime Minister denied frequently asking Mr Joyce for upgrades on Tuesday at press
    conference in the NSW city of Newcastle.

    ‘The only discussions that I can recall with Alan Joyce certainly were not discussed
    through calls – we discussed the first flight from Australia to Dubai on the A380,’ he said.

    ‘I’ve declared everything in accordance with all of the rules.’

    Aston was asked on Monday night by ABC interviewer Sarah Ferguson about
    how confident he was that Mr Albanese had made calls
    personally to Mr Joyce for upgrades.

    ‘I am very comfortable with my sourcing,’ Aston said.

    Asked whether he thought Mr Albanese had been influenced by Mr Joyce’s lobbying to
    block UAE airline Qatar domestically Aston said it was ‘implausible’ to think that the Prime Minister’s office had nothing to do with the decision.

    Mr Albanese’s son Nathan, 24, has reportedly also
    been granted access to the Qantas Chairman’s Lounge (pictured, Mr Albanese and son Nathan in May, 2022)

    ‘It’s very hard to imagine a decision of any political sensitivity in the Albanese government that would not go through the Prime
    Minister’s office,’ Aston replied.

    He noted the opening up of the Australian domestic market
    Qatar had seemingly been sailing through with Transport Minister Catherine King
    speaking warmly about the proposal until ‘everything changed’ to stop it dead in tracks. 

     Ms King repeatedly denied in parliament the decision to
    block Qatar was due to Qantas lobbying her or any Labor colleagues.

    Despite Mr Albanese claiming he declared every upgrade received from Qantas the Australian Financial Review reported on Tuesday that he failed to do for his former
    wife Carmel Tebbutt when the two traveled together.

    Opposition Leader Peter Dutton has  questioned
    the alleged personal requests Mr Albanese made to Mr Joyce 
    while in his various parliamentary jobs

    Even when Scott Morrison was prime minister, Mr Joyce appeared to have
    a close relationship with Mr Albanese (the pair are pictured at an event in 2019)

    Sky New host Sharri Markson on Monday night labeled Mr Joyce as ‘basically Albanese’s personal travel agent.’

    ‘This is all a question of integrity. Most Australians struggle to afford even an economy airfare.
    They’d never be able to afford the luxury of
    business class. It’s out of our reach,’ she said.

    ‘Can Albanese truly be impartial when it comes to making decisions about Qantas when he’s been getting tens of thousands of dollars worth of free upgrades
    to business class? The revelations puts the decision he
    made as transport minister and prime minister under a
    cloud.

    ‘Aside from the integrity issues, this revelation is also politically lethal.
    Albanese took care to curate a self-image of a housing commission boy who made it.

    But now the perception is cementing of a long-term pollie enjoying the perks of
    public office.’

    Another awkward paradox of Mr Albanese’s  apparent close relationship with Mr
    Joyce is that the Labor leader in a trade unionist advocate while Qantas attempted to break the power of the Transport Workers Union by
    sacking 1700 staff during Covid. 

    The sacking has since been ruled illegal by Federal
    Court in a case brought by the union with Qantas facing possible hundreds
    of thousands in compensation payouts. 

    The friendship however did find one perhaps unlikely defender in semi-retired 3AW radio
    star Neil Mitchell. 

    ‘Quick test: upgrade Albo is a bad look,’ Mitchell wrote on X.

    ‘But does anybody believe he was seriously compromised by having Alan Joyce as a bestie?
    Time to rewrite rules governing politicians.’

  12. Abbie Chatfield has shared a very telling throwback image of herself and boyfriend Adam Hyde, six months
    before they went Instagram Official.

    The veteran presenter, 29, and the Peking Duk frontman went public with their relationship in June.

    However another racy photo, taken before they became a couple, captured Abbie and Adam waiting patiently together in a fast food line, with the
    presenter looking absolutely smitten over the strapping musician.

    Abbie had a huge smile on her face in the adorable picture, as she gazed intensely at Adam as they chatted while waiting to
    order.

    She captioned the picture: ‘One year and two days since this iconic photo of me being in love with Adam.

    ‘Before we ever even slept together LMAO. “Nah, I don’t have a crush on him anymore”.’

    six months before they went Instagram Official. Both pictured

    The podcast host was braless in the image, and her low-slung skirt showed plenty of skin.

    Shortly after they went public with their relationship,
     Abbie opened up about her sex life with her boyfriend in a candid and
    wide-ranging chat on her It’s A Lot podcast.

    She appeared on the bonus Ask Me Anything episode with Adam,
    in which they discussed their budding romance.

    As the new couple fielded questions about their bond, musician Adam cheekily boasted about the couple’s sizzling chemistry.

    It comes after Abbie revealed the sexual act she would never engage in with her boyfriend.

    She recently opened up about the launch of her ‘kink kit’ sex toys and admitted when it comes to bedroom fun, it’s strictly a two-person affair. 

    The veteran presenter, 29, whose relationship with the Peking Duk frontman went public in June, posted a loved-up image of them to Instagram
    from November last year. The photo captured Abbie and Adam waiting patiently together, with the presenter looking smitten

    While she does fantasise about having a ménage à trois, Abbie admitted it’s something she
    could never actually go through with.

    ‘I have a fantasy about seeing my partner f***
    someone else,’ she told News Corp.

    ‘But I think I know in my heart that I don’t actually want to
    see it. I just want to talk about it like, that’s something that
    I find hot. But in reality, would I want to see that?
    Probably not.’

    ‘Whenever we get to a point where we’re like, “let’s have a threesome!”, I’m
    like, “I don’t actually know if I’m gonna want to see that”,’ she continued. 

    Abbie and Adam’s relationship is stronger than ever since theyu went public in June
