Page Six columnist Ian Spiegelman on the Hilton sisters: "You take the Hilton sisters you can brush 'em off as a couple of stupid rich bitches, and they might be that, but at the same time, they're like this American tragedy. They have everything. There's no reason why they shouldn't live a great life and do great things, but at the same time, they've had no parental supervision, ever. There's no one around who seems to care what happens to them, and so, every time you look at them, they're falling down. And as much as I dislike rich people, I have sympathy for what's happened to them, because they don't even know what's happened to them. They're just two girls who someone should've looked after, and no one ever did, and no one ever will. They're gonna go through guy after guy that they think could be Daddy. It's not gonna be Daddy. And they're going to abuse maid after maid." [See also the letters page for the ULA's Karl "King" Wenclas' complaint that there will likely be celebrities at Ian's book party tonight for his new novel, Everyone's Burning. McSweeney's/Men's Journal contributor John Hodgman jumps in and Ian responds that Dave Eggers is a "sneaking, dishonest freak." Much fun is had by all.]
