Where's Lindsay?


Lindsay Lohan has been more-or-less in hiding since her second DUI arrest. It was initially reported that she had checked back into rehab, maybe even the Betty Ford clinic, but those claims proved erroneous. So where is she then? The Himalayan foothills? On a couch in some opium den dreaming her life is a gangster movie? Actually, no - she's on Long Island. According to the N.Y. Post, Lindsay quietly slipped out of L.A. on Friday, went to New York and thence to her mother Dina's house in Merrick where her grandmother and three siblings are. One presumes Lindsay's people waited this long to get her back home in order to spare her family the worst of her withdrawal symptoms. Hope they've got lots of coffee and aspirin on-hand.

Loving father Michael Lohan of course used this news as an opportunity to again beg his way back into Lindsay's inner-circle:

If it is true that she's in New York, I hope we'll have contact. I'll help her in every possible way I can. ... I think it's a good thing that she's back with her family. Hopefully, the only element missing is myself. Lindsay has to get away from the people she's around in L.A. She needs to have her father and her mother in her life.

Michael is so repetitive it's hilarious. I actually think he doesn't bother saying this shit anymore, but just carries around one of those See & Say toys, except instead of saying "The cow goes moo" or some shit when he pulls the string, it says "Lindsay needs her father in her life," or "Lindsay needs to get away from her L.A. friends." When will he figure out that everyone in his family hates him, especially Lindsay, and that all these statements of his only make him look self-serving and idiotic? I can't wait for the pictures of Michael trying to get into Dina's house to see Lindsay, and grandma coming out with the garden hose and spraying the poor bastard. And Lindsay's little gleefully smiling face in the window.
