The Las Vegas Review-Journal reports that super-smarmy Leach and his ripe young gaggle of gals were supping in a glassed-in private room at Las Vegas' Delmonico Steakhouse in the lavish, new Venetian hotel and casino when two of the women began a delightful little window striptease for the kitchen staff.

"The women began coming up to the glass and flashing us, topless and bottom," a scandalized source told the Vegas paper, adding that lecherous Leach lovingly looked on, applauding and encouraging kitchen staffers to do the same.

For a startlingly sweet finale, one of the women stripped off her duds, clambered onto the table and lay back as her dinner companions adorned her with whipped cream. One peckish participant climbed atop her and set to lickin', and soon fully clothed Leach uncovered his own naked debauchery, pouring chocolate (not hot, I hope) on one boffo babe's buttocks.

Now the ritzy new restaurant faces losing its liquor license (along with its champagne wishes and caviar dreams), while lewd Leach is on to his next randy adventure. Hmm ... guess that's the real life of the rich and famous.

Give this guy some verbal Viagra!

"She puts a smile on the face of the Republican party, and that's going to be very helpful."

-- Bob "Flopsy" Dole, proving that he's still a VIP (very impotent person) with these flaccid words of endorsement for his wife's presidential campaign.

Who says this campaign promise will not pass "Go"?

Let Al Gore and George W. Bush drone on about the economy, family issues, the environment and all that crud. Republican presidential hopeful and eligible candidate for Robin Leach's old show (the one on TV, not in the steakhouse) Steve Forbes has a big idea that'll blow all other campaign promises away.

Forbes has vowed to do away with the new $20 bill, which he says (and who will argue?) looks like "Monopoly money."

"That's going to be changed if a certain person is elected president," the Oval Office aspirant most familiar with money told the Des Moines Chamber of Commerce last week. "We'll have money that looks real again."

Now that's a cash-solid platform to stand on, Steve-O.

Throw the book at her!

"I think it's outrageous that they arrest you ... It ain't like I did a huge crime, like I killed somebody."

-- Sabrina Davis, who was handcuffed and carted off to jail for not returning a book she borrowed from the Clearwater Public Library in Florida.

Juicy bits

The U.N. Population Fund's spicy goodwill ambassador may be going over big with teenage gals in the Philippines, but her message of safe sex and condom use is proving a bit too peppery for the country's men of the cloth. Catholic Church leaders are condemning the contraceptive concepts being condoned by the artist formerly known as Ginger Spice. The church's head, miraculously named Cardinal Sin, has denounced Geri Halliwell's visit as immoral. The cardinal, who is encouraging young girls to ignore Halliwell, has said condoms are evil and only fit for animals. Geez, cardinal, what size did you try?

Sophie Rhys-Jones doesn't want to be compared to Diana. Really. She's nothing like the late Princess of Wales. Honest. But in an interview with the BBC, she recently admitted that even she sometimes gets a little confused by the physical similarities. "I've in the past done double takes when I've seen a picture of what I thought was either me or the Princess of Wales and actually, from a distance, not knowing who it was." So was there any chance it was actually Diana in that fuzzy topless tabloid photo?
