It's the annual Best Of post, the one post in the year where I get to use the first person singular! Hooray! From the Starbucks (not really a) bomber in January to the opening of the Daiso in December, it was certainly one heck of a year, wasn't it? There was BUSH TER DOWN; the Chron's series about police brutality getting upstaged by their misidentification of the cop in question; Kimberly Guilfoyle's new boyfriend,......

Ed Jew: I heard Vanessa Getty talked smack about you in W Magazine. Gavin Newsom: Oh, no she didn't! Ed Jew: Oh, yes she did. Gavin Newsom: Then I'm telling everybody how she wore the same blue dress on September 25th in SF, and November 13th in LA. Ed Jew: Isn't that the pot calling the kettle black?

Hats, capes, tiaras: 6, 0, 1. We've classified Cynthia Bowman's halo as a tiara. Stanlee Gatti count: 1. (in a forthcoming W Magazine spread.)......

[Kimberly] Guilfoyle's plump lips retreat into a Jessica Rabbit pout. "But you're hot Zoolander! Sexy Zoolander! Rrrrrrrrrrrargh Zoolander!" Thus are we introduced to New York's latest arriviste couple, The Guilfency, in October 2006's W Magazine, as Eric Villency gets called out for his sexy Blue Steel picture pose. (We cannot find an online link to this article for love or money, but we bet commenter ThatChick can!) We're sorry to tell you there is no......

Ha! We finally out-Googled everyone's favorite Newsom watcher, commenter ThatChick! Check out this picture we found of perennial SFist favorite, Kimberly Guilfoyle Newsom Villency and her incipient child (due in about 2 weeks), from Monday the 11th at the Marc Jacobs show for Fashion Week. We'd've tried to get a larger version of the picture for you, but now we fear we may have accidentally downloaded this unsecured picture off a secure site, like an......
