Paris, you're not alone

Oh, life's crushing cruelty! I'll forever remember May 4 as the day I learned that Paris Hilton was going to serve hard time for violating her probation.

Everything I believed about truth, justice and the American way came crashing down as I contemplated the challenges facing the heiress. And for what? I believe that Paris was completely unaware she was driving on a suspended license, even though the paperwork notifying her was in her car. Would you expect anything less of her? She's Paris! Being woefully ignorant is what she does best!

And so now I make a pledge to Paris. Beginning the day she enters prison, I will go on a "bathing strike." That's right - no showers until Paris tastes the sweet nectar of freedom again. I will suffer (Daily News staffers will suffer more) so that she won't be the only one feeling the pain.

Paris, America has done you wrong. They've held an extraordinary person up to the expectations of an ordinary one. And that's definitely not "hot."
