At Tortilla Flats... the DELL guy... Benjamin Curtis is actually a waiter. I noticed him immediately, cause the guy has dimples for days... was nice. Has a band and was promoting the fact that they are playing this Friday in the city and yeah... was not to open with the fact that he was the dell guy, but finally admited it. He was cool. Also, Cuba Gooding Jr. there with a friend or bodyguard... looked like a bodyguard to me... came in sat at the end of bar and had one drink... Was cordial, but not overly talkative.. my moms friend actually went over and asked for a hug and was cool about it, but wouldnt take a picture in the bar... image reasons im sure. Left after the drink. Also

Evening of October 17. I was at the Hennessy event and got to meet hottie Jason Schwartzman, who was very gracious and charming in person if shorter than I'd imagined. He spent most of the evening making the rounds with Kirsten Dunst, who for some reason kept going back and forth between him and Jake Gyllenhaal. It goes without saying that if I were her I wouldn't have left Jason's side for a minute, but that's neither here nor there. Guess I shouldn't complain too much as at least with Jason and her it looked like promotional work only, not so with the latter. Whenever I looked over at them he seemed very focused on her and at one point it looked like they were briefly and discreetly holding hands under the table. So YES! My Jason fantasies need not be put away yet ha ha.

11am - Eastern Parkway and Washington ave, Prospect Heights, BKLN—— Saw that fierce bob that is Anna Wintour walking out of private car and ushered into the Brooklyn Art Museum early today. Maybe she was checking out the Annie Leibovitz exhibition that goes on tomorrow? Best looking person in Brooklyn at the time- all eyes were on her. On her cell phone as soon as she got into the back of her car.

I saw Dylan McDermott walking down Mulberry Street with a male friend. He was dressed pretty casually but looked good.

I saw Jake Gyllenhaal and Martha Plimpton talking outside of ONeals on W. 64th Street yesterday (October 21st). She was telling him how she is happy to be working again. She's so pretty up close. So is he!

Maggie Gyllenhaal and a friend (not sure if famous) came into the Corner Bistro in the W. Village... 331 West 4th street...Ordered food to go, sat at the bar and had a beer, was very happy, jokey and surprisingly left at the same time as my friend matt and I and was eating a piece of her burger from the aluminum while they walked home(?) Sighting was at 9:30pm... Left at 10pm. She had a pair of black worn in leather boots... kind of like riding boots... they were cute. I wanted them.. aha.

I was having dinner at the Cornelia Street Cafe in the West Village, as I was leaving Anna Paquin was waiting patiently for a table - she is short but gorgeous!

I saw Matt Lauer holding two cute little kids, standing next to a horse stable fence posing for pictures in Bridgehampton. He looked like he was being very obliging to the female photographer.

I saw Hilary Swank and her agent/boyfriend at Tartine Saturday morning having brunch. They were seated in the corner against the wall and not near the windows. She was wearing a navy blouse with a weird, faux pearl necklace and he looked kind of like a rat. He gets to sleep with her and take 10%? That's a better deal than Chad! He was chatty and Hilary mostly listened and ate (I think she had eggs of some sort). My boyfriend swears he saw a tear trickle down Hilary's face. She did seem red when leaving and of course, she left first and he waited a good minute or two and then followed. He is really short too.

Tim Robbins on Sunday the 22nd at about 3:30 playing roller hockey on the corner of 6th and Houston. Looked majestic as ever with yellow shades and a windbreaker. I must say he's very graceful giant on skates.

I was at Doro Bush's book signing on oct. 11 and i saw Barbara Bush wearing the same ring on her married finger since last year! it was gold, silver and big. I believe she's engaged.

My wife called and said she just saw Adrian Grenier heading into the Bagel Zone - Ave A at 3rd Street. He was carrying a Tempurpedic pillow box. Must need a rest.

October 23, 2006, 9 am, Union Square East and 17th Street. My geek love fantasies have all been fulfilled as I stood next to Edward Norton at the traffic light. He seemed to be coming from a morning meeting (W Hotel perhaps?), laptop in hand. His eyes could melt steel, they are that intense. I officially forgive him for making whoopie with Courtney Love and for making movies with Brett Ratner. Ed, you and your intenso-vision eyes have de-throned Gyllenhaal, and you've climbed back to the top of my fantasy wish list.

Today we saw:Johnny Knoxville on Spring Street during the World Series game. Lester Holt on 8th Avenue/teens looking very handsome. Philip Seymour Hoffman on 8th Avenue/teens sitting at an outdoor bar with friends.

I saw Liev Schreiber last night(10-22) around midnight on bond street between broadway and lafayette. He was clutching quite a few bags with his head down, resonating the look of a homeless person.

Sat next to Joe Torre eating at Elio's on 2nd and 84th last night around 8pm. Was with his wife and looked kind of sad.

Saw Parker Posey yesterday (Oct 19) around 3pm on 9th and A walking her weird looking dog, Gracie, yelling at her, straight out of Best in Show. She was in a dress and heels and very rude.

9:30 am. I saw the perky Lauren Ambrose with an unshaven Kevin Reome heading down the street at 7th near 14th holding coffee cups, giggling and sharing a huge bagel. Ambrose had this huge rainbow-y scarf on and a long grey suede coat with high boots. Stunning as ever.

W 57th St at Avenue of the Americas, Oct 20th, 2006 3:15pm: Just saw Anne Hathaway at the Duane Reade downstairs waiting downstairs at the pharmacy to pick up a prescription. She was reading a gossip magazine commenting to her personal assistant on how fat some of the other actresses were! She looked cute. No makeup, skinny jeans, black flats, and a wide black headband.

Sat a few rows behind John Waters at the 1:20 showing of Deliver Us From Evil at the Angelika today. Very skinny but wow, I could spot that mustachioed face from a mile away.

Saw Ed Burns sitting outside of Bread Tribeca on Church and Walker. He was eating with three hipster guys. Wasn't sure if it was him until I heard him talk. Very attractive in person.

Judah Friedlander (30 Rock), on his cell, wearing a mesh trucker hat, Harley T-shirt, and baggy jeans. He looked as cool as his character does on TV (I can't remember if sarcasm translates well in print).

Saw Chris Klein and Ginnifer Goodwin last night smoking outside of Pastis. He's hot but has a questionable goatee mildly resembling Suri's toupee. She looks like a Mormon wife.

Just saw Kate Winslet walking in All Mobile Video at 9:50am on 26th St btw 7th and 8th Ave. She got out of a black suburban with an entourage. She was wearing all black and looked really good. Kate must of been shooting something in there.

Tyrese at the W Hotel in Times Square at about 8:45-9pm last night.

Saw Gilbert Godfried walking down Broadway near Bleeker Street today around 6:30 pm. Was looking very sullen, and is much shorter in person. Decked out in a simple blue sweat shirt and blue jeans.

Ice-T at Newark airport at 5ish on Sunday the 15the of October. He was wearing a baseball hat and sunglasses, but I recognized the ponytail/braid in the back. He was with a women I assume is his wife, who was wearing a very, ummm, revealing white spandex-y outfit.

Donald Sutherland was outside (later inside, I checked) of Le Cirque in the Bloomberg building. He was in a nice, dark suit even though it was Saturday noon. He had a shock of very white hair, was all smiles and not at all scary like you might expect because of his giant teeth.

October 19 at 1PM, 49th Street btw 6th and 7th Gerard Way, lead singer of My Chemical Romance, spotted outside NBC Radio City Music Hall smoking a cigarette. Looking hot with blonde hair and all-black attire, obviously the epitome of badass. Luckily, he wasn't surrounded by swooning teenage girls.

10 minutes ago Sandra Bernhardt was in the produce section of Whole Foods Chelsea, 5 minutes ago the botlled water area. She's filling up a shopping cart, but there's a very short line today at the checkouts so you're going to have to hurry!

Who: Saw Janeane Garofalo shopping on the lower level of Whole Foods Union Square. When: about 9:00 PM, Saturday night October 21st Noteworthy characteristics: With a man, she was dressed like a cross between a hippie and little boyish street urchin — presumably attempting to appear invisible. She is so tiny for a such a big toughie (personality).

Was walking my dog when I got to see Eddie Van Halen walking into Jamba Juice. Damn I was speechless. He looked awesome, though a bit haggard- just like every rocker icon should. Seemed chatty in the store, even signed an autograph or two for the people who approached him.

Saw David Blaine at Bubby's Saturday 10/21 around noon, making some pancakes disappear. Looked a little bloated.

About 2:00 this afternoon (sunday) in the H&M on 5th Avenue and 50th, Alice Cooper! I didn't believe my own eyes when I first saw him because who would have thought Alice Cooper shops in H&M, but I got a second look a little while later and it was him for sure. He was hiding out in the corner near the third floor dressing room talking to another dude, apparently waiting for someone to come out of the dressing room. He seemed like a pretty normal guy without the eyeliner and in jeans and a warm-up jacket. I don't think anyone else noticed.
