The Sunday Styles section of the Chronicle does it again! Not content to rest on its laurels after watching poor Jennifer Bumblebee Siebel decimate herself, Styles next turns its gimlet eye on two other prominent members of the Swells set: Denise Hale and the inimitable bicycle-intimidator Dede Wilsey. Sunday Styles RULES. Turns out Pat Montandon, mother of Sean Wilsey and ex-wife of Dede's late husband Al Wilsey, has decided to pen a book of her......

Fog City Journal is reporting that Matt Gonzalez has been in talks with a campaign manager, Nicole Derse, about running. We're all guessing it's for Mayor but who knows with Matt? We've heard speculation that he might be going for Kamala's job. Or maybe he's doing his patented "wait for the right moment" thing to try and snag a spot on "American Idol?" We hear his rendition of Christina Aguilera's "Beautiful" is pretty amazing.

Last week's winner, the Bay Guardian. Tim Redmond handicaps the SF mayor's race (they're becoming disenchanted with Matt Gonzalez?). It's the all Chris Daly news section: Chris on the How Weird Street Faire, Chris on campaign finance reform, Chris and the ethics commission. Why didn't they also ask Chris for a quote on the Mission street cleaning proposal? Cover article: "Where do stolen bikes go? Can they find their way home? Back to the open......

Ques-tion TIME! Ques-tion TIME! Wow, Gavin really doesn't want to take your questions -- he won't even take live questions on this morning's Energy 92.7 commute-time show. (We tried listening to the .mp3s of Gavin's interview, but we had to stop listening when he started whining (.mp3) about how everyone was asking him about the 20-year-old girlfriend "that I never even kissed.") Poor Chris Daly, dialing up the station, only to get a busy......

Before we begin, we'd like to extend our deepest sympathies to the family of James Kim. We are not, by any means, trying to discount that tragedy by juxtaposing posts about the Kims with more light-hearted posts. It's the nature of doing a compilation such as this one: we're trying to give a full slice of the goings-on in the Ist-a-Verse: the good, the bad, and the ugly....

These shows prove that the realm of divahood doesn't just consist of hissy fits and Botox or even transvestites....

Reading that Daily Dish feed on the 'gate is always such a guilty pleasure. And today is no exception! Top on the Dish is the revelation that Not Britney Spears (i.e., Christina Aguilera) and her fiance Jordan Bratman are getting married in Napa this weekend. Those of you loopily wine-biking up and down Silverado Trail this weekend, be on the lookout for a tent on the edge of a forest, or a pair of buttcheeks flapping up and down out the window of a white Rolls Royce with a big JUST MARRIED sign. Aguilera and Bratman are having a rehearsal dinner tonight at "an acclaimed local restaurant." (How much you want to bet it's French Laundry? And they're staying at the Auberge du Soleil?) And please, Xtina begs you, no gifts: donate money to Katrina relief instead. Free SFist t-shirt to any reader who sends in a picture of Fred Durst in Napa this weekend! ...
