Re: Wot's a Bot?
You can choose to be hidden in your profile, so that it doesn't list you at the bottom. I do that, mainly because I'm terrified of being "chatted" with.
And usually, the bot is Google, so I assume it's any search engine that's scanning our posts for search terms.

Re: Wot's a Bot?
Yesterday while lurking on this forum,I read somewhere that Melbert has earned the new title of Mr. Clooney. Congrats Melbert,but I think you truly deserve the Mrs. Clooney title.

No nononononono no no nooooooooooooooooo!
That's a very definite: "Ooh, Mr Clooney!" (think 'ooh matron!' from the Carry On films). Nobody here gets to be Mrs Clooney and that's final.

No, Melbert, I'm afraid I have to join Katie on this one. You have already shown us how it would be. If you won't SHARE THE BEDROOM at the villa, you can't be Mrs. Clooney.
Humph.
Humph.

Re: Wot's a Bot?
Years ago on Clooneyfiles we did suggest he have a harem...then we could all be Mrs Clooney and because we are all in different parts of the world we could all have a share...

Re: Wot's a Bot?
We could make it easy for him. The poor guy is going to be working his a-s off on his new movie. He will absolutely need time to "relax". If we worked out a schedule I'm sure he would appreciate all the care and attention we would show him.

We tell Stan nothing, but we might need some muscle. How about inviting G's Italian bodyguard? In my present state of stupor I can't remember his name.

The admirable Clooney.(interview with George Clooney)(Interview)(Cover Story)
Vanity Fair | October 01, 2003 |
Despite an abiding passion for practical jokes, George Clooney is a man of deep convictions. At the star's new villa on Italy's Lake Como, where Clooney has been contending with burglars, cell-phone-camera-wielding babes, and paparazzi, NED ZEMAN gets him talking about his dating dilemma, his high-octane partnership with director Steven Soderbergh, and the dangerous line he walks in his latest romantic comedy, the Coen brothers' Intolerable Cruelty, opposite Catherine Zeta-Jones
Italy needs good leaders. As usual, the country is suffering a doomed prime minister, this one being the magnificently obnoxious Silvio Berlusconi, who recently suggested that a certain German parliamentarian be cast in a concentration-camp movie, then noted that "Italians love to tell Holocaust jokes." This latest scandal played out while Berlusconi was visiting Lake Como, the beautiful resort area between Milan and Saint-Moritz. But, in Italy, politicians' blunderings have become so commonplace that a clutch of photographers abruptly abandoned Berlusconi upon hearing that George Clooney was in a nearby minivan, eating dried ham with a supermodel.
It turned out the details were a bit off, but in a fun sort of way. The Clooney part was right, and also the minivan. But there was no ham and no model; it was just Clooney and his driver, Giovanni, a thickly muscled Roman whom Clooney calls "Gio." Gio favors wraparound sunglasses and has forearms the size of armadillos. He speaks rarely. When he does, you can barely hear him, which only adds to his air of authority. In Italy, he and Clooney are never far apart. "We've developed a relationship, haven't we, Gio?" Clooney says, winking. "See how big he is? What Gio wants, Gio gets. That's all I'm going to say."
Last year in Rome, Clooney and Gio once found 10 paparazzi, riding motorcycles, on their tail. Actually, it started out being 10, then became 12, as Clooney hid on the floor of the car and Gio left rubber in the Piazza della Repubblica, careering past vegetable carts and fist-waving pedestrians. "On one level, it was really kind of hilarious," Clooney says. "Every time you looked back, there was another one. It was like a Preston Sturges movie." The allusion is particularly apt these days, since Clooney's forthcoming romantic comedy, Intolerable Cruelty, which also stars Catherine Zeta-Jones, owes much to the 40s-era Sturges-Howard Hawks subgenre-"madcap" and "screwball" being the operative adjectives, and the Coen brothers being the writers and director.
That an affable, self-effacing Kentucky-born Hollywood actor is fast becoming the most popular public figure in Italy says a little about Italy and a lot about Clooney, who isn't Italian, doesn't speak Italian, and lives here only in summertime, rarely showing his face outside the stunning 15-bedroom villa he owns in the hills above Lake Como. He'd love to step out more often, but he can't. Whenever he does, it's Amarcord. Just the other day, a paparazzo cut a hole in his fence, squeezed through, and snapped a picture of him in the pool.
Plus, there are the damned cell-phone cameras. "I've literally gone out to dinner and a girl comes over to the table and says, 'Can I have a kiss?' She leans over, gives me a kiss, I go back to the house, and the photograph is on TV. It's hysterical." He means that both ways. "I'll tell you what's going to happen next, which is the scariest of all. Somebody's going to get one of those lipstick cameras and put it right on the top of your TV-in the hotel room, when you've got Spanktravision on-and that's going to be on the Internet. That's the next step!"
Clooney spent last night at Rome's luxurious St. Regis Grand hotel, where he'd holed up with director Steven Soderbergh, tinkering with a script until 5:30 a.m. That was four hours ago, though you wouldn't know it. Clooney isn't a big sleeper. After leaving Soderbergh's room, he lay awake in bed, worrying about an Act III plot point in Ocean's Twelve, a sequel to their winning 2001 remake, Ocean's Eleven.
Next thing Clooney knew, he threw on his usual outfit-khakis, black T-shirt, white Nikes, yesterday's whiskers-and Gio escorted him through the crowded lobby, where Clooney was a wonder to behold: shoulders forward, head down, eyes dead ahead, ears pinned. The ears are key. "The first thing you do is, you pretend you don't hear. Sometimes I actually pretend to be deaf. You're walking and you hear, 'George!' You just keep walking, and your friends do it, too, and people start to think that maybe they don't exist. They're yelling, and nobody is reacting to them. But playing deaf buys you a little bit of escape time. Because the truth is it's embarrassing."
