Today in Tweet Beat, Chris Brown still misses Rihanna and dishes out advice to men, Jenna Jameson wants everyone to know she didn't turn her back on porn, and Kendra Wilkinson is writing a book.

Today in Crazytown, Randall Terry is encouraging anti-abortion advocates to burn effigies of Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi. And another group of upstanding Americans is organizing an eBay auction to fund the defense of abortion provider Dr. George Tiller's murderer. According to the Washington Independent (via Wonkette), Terry — of the Da-Vinci-code-ily-named Operation Rescue Insurrecta Nex — is instructing followers to print out large pictures of Reid and Pelosi at Kinko's, then burn them in a Halloween-themed protest against "child-killing." This is apparently related to healthcare reform, probably because of all those mandatory abortions for schoolgirls we've been hearing so much about. In an instructional video (apparently more coherent than the one above, but sadly now removed from YouTube), a Terry acolyte says, "Be safe, have fun, and remember - you're engaging in a proud heritage of American protest." Another proud American heritage: eBay. Supporters of Tiller's assassin Scott Roeder — yes, apparently there are some — are getting together an option to pay for his legal fees. Items on the block will include an autographed bullhorn like the ones anti-abortionists use to yell things outside clinics, and "an underground publication for anti-abortion militants that describes dozens of ways to shut down clinics, including bombing." The donor of this particular gem, auction organizer Dave Leach, explains, I plan to cover up the offending eight pages of bomb recipes and instead insert a note saying that in order to avoid legal problems, we advise our bomb-loving friends to seek their bomb recipes in a U.S. Army Manual, which is approved by the Justice Department. I will also enclose my April 1996 issue, which contains bomb-making excerpts from a declassified U.S. Army Manual widely available in Army surplus stores. But the most stomach-turning items are three jailhouse drawings signed by Scott Roeder and sent to anti-abortion activist Regina Dinwiddie. Dinwi

Wikipedia notes that in addition to "travelers," gypsies were often referred to as "Wise Women." Don has certainly wandered; Betty is just now getting wise, so to speak. Right at the very beginning of the episode, she challenges Don: "You have no more money." A question phrased like a statement, because she knows the answer. She's seen the stacks of cash in his drawer. She's giving Don a chance to come clean, even though she knows he won't. Not that easily. newVideoPlayer("/MM021026_jez.flv", 500, 375,""); The other woman in Don Draper's life, Suzanne Farrell, was also wising up: "I see a man who is not happy," she says. "I'm happy now," Don replies. It's a lie. He's lying to himself. Or it's the truth; and he's happy with things the way they are: Cheating on his wife, sneaking into Miss Farrell's apartment for secret sex and pasta. Either way: Not what Suzanne Farrell believes, or wants to hear. newVideoPlayer("/MM031026_jez.flv", 500, 375,""); Meanwhile, Joan was coaching her husband's interview skills. Another example of the "Wise Woman." As usual, Joan is on the money. (Anyone else think she would make a good shrink?) Her intuitive way of dealing with her husband; explaining: "This is a talking profession," came off as experienced and savvy. She knows how to work with people; she's a gifted communicator. In addition, when describing the qualities her husband should project: "You're smart, you're funny, you're great to be around…" was Joan just projecting her own qualities on to him? Also, since this episode was about secrets coming out of the drawer and into the light, his "I can't believe I never told you that" fit right in. In bed, Suzanne said to Don: I just wanted more than I thought I would want. But it will pass." This reminded me of "This too shall pass," the ph
