The lowdown: Philbin, Flay, Gertrude Maxwell . . .
. . . Now that his sidekick Kelly Ripa’s left the area until next horsey season, Regis Philbin is being spotted all over Palm Beach –- including at Publix. Why? The star of Live with Regis and Kelly is staying at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago, and I’m sure toothpaste and oranges are cheaper at Publix . . .
. . . I don’t know how superstar TV chef Bobby Flay found his way to Dolce de Palma the other day, but he did. Flay, a regular on CBS’ The Early Show, paid a visit to local up-and-coming kitchen virtuoso Anthony de Palma’s new place last week. It’s set up in a warehouse district on Old Okeechobee Road in West Palm Beach . . .
. . . More than 100 well-wishers are expected at Mar-a-Lago Sunday to celebrate Palm Beach animal activist Gertrude Maxwell’s birthday. It’s a big one: The moneyed supporter of Gov. Charlie Crist is turning 98, which means she was born at the dawn of the administration of President William Taft . . .






While engaging a waiter at lunch one day, we discussed the Bentley out front. He said the woman is a frequent luncher, but is extremely difficult and has had the waitress in tears.
Gertrude Maxwell is rude to wait staff at restaurants.
She doesn’t know how to speak, handle staff.
Gertrude, if you have class, then stop treating waiters and waitresses so poorly. Only people with no class do that.
This just goes to show how having money doesn’t give you class.
If you can’t deal with the public GET OUT OF THE BUSINESS….Who gives a ratssass who it is….DUMB WAITER………..WHERE’S MY FOODDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD.
Gertrude Maxwell is one of the most generous “ladies’ you will ever meet. Not only does she save the lives of thousands of animals, she also helps people. I have eaten at restaurants with her and she has never been rude. But hey, who hasn’t been rude to a server at one time or another??? Hope all you negative people have something better to do than talk about an awesome 98 year young lady.
Hey Jose,
Is your life and job that boring and empty that you can’t find anything else to write about except Gertrude Maxwell? Why don’t you show some respect for a 98 year old fine lady. What have been your contributions in life? Bet they’re not even close to what Gertrude has done for both animals and people. Maybe you should find a new line of work.
