10.05.2006 JOSH HARTNETT IS REALLY SMART

Josh Hartnett hints in GQ this month that he suspects President Bush had a hand in the death of Sen. Paul Wellstone, who died in a 2002 plane crash in northern Minnesota.  GQ writes:

"He's angry, and he's not convinced that pilot error or mechanical failure or fog was to blame for the crash.  (He) points out how close the race was, how Republicans were hell-bent on winning control of the Senate, how George W. Bush" made several visits to Minnesota "to support Wellstone's opponent, Norm Coleman."

The official line is that the small commuter plane carrying the senator crashed because Minnesota is 900 degrees below absolute zero in winter and those planes have an engine equal to a lawnmowers.  But Josh isn’t so sure:

“It didn't make any sense.  It was really, really suspicious, but I don't even want to think that. I just hope it's not true, because that would just be so, so, so wrong."

I know what you’re thinking President Bush.  “Damn, Josh Hartnett is on to me, he’s figured out my evil plan”  And yes, it would appear he has pieced the clues together and cracked the case.  You probably thought you’d gotten away with it, but you have to wake up pretty early in the morning to fool Josh Hartnett.

08.14.2006 SCARLETT AND JOSH ARE TOO LOUD

Life & Style says that Scarlett Johansson and Josh Hartnett are moving into a 6 million dollar loft in New York.  The 2,648-square-foot condo in Tribeca with three bedrooms, 2.5 baths and two balconies has had but one major modification commissioned by the couple - soundproofing.  Around their bedroom.  A source says:

"They asked that we change the design to include extra insulation between the bedrooms of the pent­house and the unit next door."

Another awesome idea would be to put soundproofing around anything Josh Hartnett has ever acted in.  If my TV ever showed one of his movies, I would run across the room and attack it.  I would have to teach it a lesson because I would feel like it had betrayed me.  I may have to throw it right out the window.  In fact, I may have to sell my entire house.  I'm just not sure if I could ever feel comfortable there again.
