<p>When the above-reproach Catherine Bigelow <a href="http://7x7.com/blogs/bigelow-report/its-all-good-pooch-turns-40"><br>
laid out the accomplishments</a> of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle_age">newly middle-aged</a> "PR pro" Lori Puccinelli Stern, she left off our favorite: defender and fellow bee-savior of <a href="http://sfist.com/2009/02/19/whats_the_media_saying_about_baby_n.php">Holy Mother</a> of San Francisco.</p>

<p><a href="http://sfist.com/2007/03/12/not_a_girls_kind_of_girl.php">Let us send you back to March, 2007</a>. Oh, yeah, you remember. And we'll bet you remember <a href="http://sfist.com/2007/03/12/not_a_girls_kind_of_girl.php#comment-1034863">this<br>
comment</a>, right? We have it on better than good authority that this commenter was the birthday gal herself.</p>

<p>While it's in our nature to mock, and you know that's probably one of the reasons you're reading this right now, we're not going to -- with all the Strurm und Drang that we think the next 8-9 months will bring the Newsom clan, especially <a href="http://sfist.com/2007/03/12/not_a_girls_kind_of_girl.php#comment-1034863"> that they're going to be a family</a> (Don't tell all those childless people you aren't a family until you breed! Oh, wait! We said weren't going to mock), friends that demonstrate that level of loyalty will be in short supply. So, happy birthday, Pooch!</p>

<p>Bonus: Bigelow's latest also features sun-kissed star of stage and screen Donna fucking Mills. That's right, <em>the</em> Abby Ewing. In a cheetah print. If that doesn't sell you on C-Big, then, well, you have no soul.</p><i>now</i>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Photo du Jour 171]]></title><description><![CDATA[Help find Miranda, won't you?
