Who says the Pontificator is not at the forefront of modern pop culture? I sent the following response to a great friend and former colleague who sent me news of Zsa Zsa Gabor’s being “victimized,” to the tune of $10mm, by Smiling Bernie Madoff:

Ooohhh, Zsa Zsa!!!
Several thoughts come to mind:
First, being famous for being famous, or serially marrying many rich men, must pay well. Can Paris Hilton be far behind on the list of those whose money Bernie made off with? Given her relative youth, and the head start with her chunk of the Hilton fortune (of which I am sure Zsa Zsa also has a piece), such as it is, has afforded her, she is in a good position to surpass even the 1936 Miss Hungary contestant and star of “Queen of Outer Space” in the marvels fame for the sake of fame, and not giving anything away, can do for one’s portfolio. Well, perhaps we have to scratch the latter in Ms. Hilton’s case.
Second, Zsa Zsa’s husband just noticed this last week when he “checked on the couple’s finances.” Either these two are a couple of witless dolts or they have so much money that they never even bothered to check on their mere $10mm investment with Madoff when the story broke. See my first comment again.
Third, if Merv Griffin were still alive, none of this would have happened to Zsa Zsa. He doubtless would have counseled the object of his constant adoration, and the woman whose career he sustained in its later years, to avoid the clutches of the wily and slimy Bernie Madoff. Either that or Merv would have been one of Madoff’s major investors.
Ooohhh, Zsa Zsa!!!
