Bio

I'm a former panelist on the CBS game show "What's My Line?" and longtime columnist for the Hearst publication, The New York Journal American. My 1965 death remains a mystery to this day. On November 8th of that year, I was found in my New York City town home, having ingested a deadly mixture of alcohol and secobarbital. Investigators were unable to determine whether this was accidental or suicidal. Many believe that my untimely passing at age 52 was tied to the JFK conspiracy after I vocally critiqued the Warren Commission and had very recently interviewed Jack Ruby. Impressively, I am also a senior in COM.

This Ain't a Scene, It's a Theme-Restaurant in Foxborough

@ Anonymous: Well, attending Boston University, many of us live in Boston. And some of us attend New England Patriots games at Gilette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts. Posted 12/10/2007 2:13 PM

This Ain't a Scene, It's a Theme-Restaurant in Foxborough

While running CBS is fun, Les Moonves has been waiting for just the right opportunity to hit it big in the restaurant business. Next year, his dream will come true with the unveiling of his own three-story CBS-themed eatery at Gilette Stadium.

Following in the footsteps of great themed restaurants, like Planet Hollywood, Rainforest Café and Dol...

Ralph Nader is Mean

Posted by Dorothy Kilgallen12/05/2007 10:34 AM

Nobody knows how to inspire the masses like Ralph Nader. Speaking at Metcalf last night, part of BU’s “Ready to Vote” program, Nader was brought in to yell at students for being lazy. Because the kids who are actually willing to miss the “Plastic Fantastic” Nip/Tuck episode and go to Metcalf Hall on a Tuesday night to see Ralph Nader are the apa

Smoking Out the Truth

Posted by Dorothy Kilgallen11/26/2007 9:30 PM

BU prof Michael Siegel is calling out the Truth campaign for being the annoying ****s we all thought they were. Apparently, multiple anti-smoking groups claimed that 30 minutes of second-hand smoke exposure could lead to deadly heart episodes in completely healthy non-smokers.

Siegel disproved these claims by using science, and, you know, basic

The city of Boston will light a big Christmas tree on the Boston Commons next Thursday, November 29th, and CGS is hosting!

Well, technically the city of Boston is hosting, but CGS student government is hosting the Facebook event. They are inviting students to come for Christmas songs and a Christmas tree and ice-skating and pretty lights and ma

As Much As We All Love The Constitution...

Boston Police are psyched about their new pre-crime strategy---searching teenagers rooms for guns without warrants.

So basically, the plan works like this:

Detectives come to a home in a dangerous neighborhood. They politely ask the residents of said home if they may search the bedrooms of any teenagers. The residents, terrified of their child

Rhett Keeds, He Keeds!

Posted by Dorothy Kilgallen11/06/2007 07:32 AM

It turns out there's a reason mascots are normally mute. In this promotional video for the GSU's snazzy new diner, the cleverly named Rhett's, a puppet Rhett hilariously interacts with students lining up for overpriced indigestion.

An otherwise crappy BU Today propaganda video here takes a turn towards the meta. When hand-in-puppet Rhett meets

Oh, Look Sire, the Herd is on the Move

Survival tip: avoid riots.

At least a few devoted fans living in west campus shared this sentiment, with statements like: “Shit. Do we have to go all the way to Fenway now? It’s really cold.”

For those of you who avoided the Kenmore-area riots, all you missed were alcohol-induced chanting, maniacal broom-waving, partial nudity, crowd-pleasing

Smiles All Around? Are you f**king kidding?

To placate the torch-wielding …dozens(?), up-in-arms about Damon Davidson’s cheating scandal, Programming Council has devised a solution where everyone wins. Or no one. Whatever.

Specifically, Damon must share the responsibilities of his hallowed office with runner-up Jillian Jorgensen. Because they don’t specifically have a rule that says you

Sometimes Cheaters Prosper

Dorothy Kilgallen says,

What was it you found hilarious about Damon? His jokes? The ones he didn't write?

I'm sure all the other competitors who got up in front of a group of people to do standup--with material they actually wrote--would agree that it takes courage. Posted 10/15/2007 8:08 PM
