Here's one that'll pick you up ...

I goto Gawker.com and during the week, they have gossip posting. It consists of 'clues' where they give the low down on someone, "sometimes interesting" is putting it mildly, and people try to figure out who it is. They don't ever post the answers (they'll culled from other gossip pages), so people post their guesses.

Today, the last item was this story. This is the first time I recall them posting one like this, but this is just so cool, especially since they didn't announce it to make it into their own story. I have an idea who it is ....

"A few weeks ago this C list movie and television actress who used to be B and has a very distinctive voice was in the airport when she met a woman and her wheelchair bound daughter. The mom and daughter were going back to their home after being in Los Angeles for what they thought was going to be a Make A Wish type event. NOT Make A Wish but some other organization. Anyway, it turned out that the event the daughter was supposed to go to to meet one of her favorite musicians was canceled. Literally all the daughter got was a t-shirt. No Disneyland, no nothing. Well, our actress called her manager, canceled her own ticket on the flight and took both the mom and the daughter to a hotel, called all of her friends and anyone else she could think of and threw the girl a party at her house with about 20 A and B list actors and also the girl's favorite musician. She then arranged for a limo to take the two to the airport the next day." (CDaN)
