Still perky at 50: To celebrate Barbie’s 50th birthday, an interior decorator has redesigned a 3,500-square-foot house as Barbie’s Malibu Dream House, complete with pink carpeting, a pink Volkswagen Beetle in the garage and a closet with 50 pairs of pink high-heel shoes.
Missing from the Dream House is Ken, who apparently lost the house in a bitter divorce with Barbie and is living in his Fresno Dream Single-Wide Trailer.
Are you ever fired: Investors in a San Diego condo project pitched by the short-fingered Donald Trump have been told that the project has collapsed. They won’t get their condos and they won’t be getting back their $250,000 deposits.
The Donald has promised to make it up to the burned investors by inviting them to appear in next season’s “The Apprentice: People Who Shouldn’t Have Trusted Me In The First Place.”
Hand in the cookie jar: Bremerton police have arrested a fifth suspect in a counterfeiting ring after the 21-year-old woman was found with Girl Scout cookies in her car’s trunk that police allege she bought with a fake $20 bill.
Extra care was taken to make sure the cookies were booked into evidence rather than the officers’ break room.
