She's going through a tough time right now...we've been telling Kathy (her mom) that she's been spoiling and sheltering Paris from the real world.  Now she's finally getting a taste of discipline.  Unfortunately, it's been in front of the cameras for all the world to see.

Is that a joke or are you seriously related?

It doesn't really matter, as long as he gets to stay for free at any Hilton Hotel, in the best suite.



There used to a restaurant near Sens' neck of the woods, in Lorton, VA called Hillbilly Haven, which I recall was owned by actor Dan Ackroyd's father-in-law, the father of actress, Donna Dixon (Miss Virginia 1976, Miss District of Columbia 1977, 1st runner-up Miss USA 1977.)

Where in the world do you come up with these facts, N2P?  Are you an encyclopedia salesman?

I drove past the Hillbilly Haven at one time, which was on Route 1.  I thought the name was so hysterically funny that I took a photo of it.  I'm not sure if it ever got developed.  Adjacent Woodbridge VA was very redneck at one time; I remember telling my brother about the restaurant, and he didn't believe me until he saw it himself. 

When Ackroyd married Donna Dixon, I think the newspapers mentioned her father owning that "night club."  I just thought "small world" at the time.  I didn't know Dixon was a beauty queen until I just Googled her today.  That kind of explains how she got her foot in Hollywood's door.  She co-starred with a young Tom Hanks in a sit-com in 1980-82 called Bosom Buddies, which may still appear in re-runs on cable TV.  It was a weak TV version of 1959's Some Like It Hot, which starred Marilyn Monroe, Jack Lemmon, and Tony Curtis.  In the tv version, Two and a Half Men's Holland Taylor was the ad agency boss of both Hanks and Peter Scolari.

Hillbilly Haven's been there for ages...it's a bonafide biker bar roadhouse - lotsa long bearded guys with chains attached to their wallets.  Fights and shootings about once a month...not for the faint of heart.  I recommend to continue down the road for your sight-seeing pleasure.

Sens is related to Paris Hilton?  And his name is Ronald Hilton?

We need to preserve such places...it's getting harder and harder to find a place to get a beer and a shot at 9 a.m...there are countless places to park your Prius for a skim latte, but hawg bars are almost nonexistent between Winchester and Laurel!

Does it have the same name?  I tried to Google it and came up with nothing.  But that's what it looked like, a typical tiny redneck restaurant.  I remember reading that its ownership changed hands a long time ago, after Donna Dixon made her name.

There also used to be a big restaurant at the northern edge of Woodbridge that did a ton of business and drew people in for Monday Night Football.  I can't remember the name of it, but it had good-looking waitresses running around in shorts, serving beer at night, long before anyone heard of Hooters.




Bosom Buddies cast, Dixon on right

[nats2playoffs]

Has Donna Dixon ever been there?
I'm pretty sure she's been to the Hillbilly Haven...

[nospinzone1]

does anyone believe that Paris has seen the light?

[kimnat]

Uh, not sure.  But time will tell.  Her interview w/ Babs would indicate so.  But we'll see.  I'm not convinced.
