Icepack
Amorosi on the news, nightlife, gossip and bitchiness beats.
Before I mention the Yankee Doodle bit where he jammed a feather into his cap and called it macaroni for no good reason, can I just congratulate the Philadelphia Macaroni Co.? Yes, we have that. And the PMC is so big — it's got pasta factories in Spokane, WA, and Grand Forks, ND, along with a local plant — that it's taking over one of Campbell Soup's operations in Ohio and will start making that plant's goods. That's why we're the birthplace of America. We will take control of your pasta like we did Britain's tea stash.
► How Slick are you? The School o' Rock grads are all over the place this week: Drummer Eric Slick joined Dr. Dog and will be on Craig Ferguson's CBS show July 2, and gee-tar-slinging sister Julie Slick opens for Adrian Belew at WCL July 1 with songs from her new CD featuring Robert Fripp. That's some prog-love, yo.

HALF OFF DEPOT
► Teri's in the Italian Market (they serve a mean duck) finally got its liquor license last weekend and started serving Pink Pussycats and Purple Pimp Shoes. Thus, I had one cottony candy Sunday.
► You're thrilled that whore-master Tiger Woods is doing the AT&T National Golf Tourney, and that McNabb, the Cos, Will Smith, Patti LaBelle (who killed it at the BET Awards on Sunday) and Stephanie Mills (huh?!) are supposed to hit Aronimink. I'm thrilled that Damon Feldman's Celebrity Wrestling jawn's taking advantage of the moment and seeking an opponent to fight Woods mistress Devon James for a July 30 bout in Atlantic City. Wanna do battle? Write opponent@celebritysportsentertainment.com or call 480-BOXING1.
► Thom "Mrs. Slocum" Cardwell told me at last week's fab Wilhelmena Model bash at Trust that he's bringing the star (Wendie Malick) of a film he co-wrote, You Can't Have It All, to his gaygaygaygay QFest premiere at Ritz East July 8. DO IT!
► Honey's Sit 'N Eat, NoLibs' best spot for vegan breakfast meat, opens a second location at 21st and South late fall. Sooner, on South: Percy Street chef Erin O'Shea holds a pic-a-nic BBQ July 3-5 with guests doing "cowboy karaoke" for free desserts, smoked meats and spiked watermelons.
► Schoolly D spent his b-day at NatMechanics enthusing about a label/production deal with MilkBoy Communication (we're waiting for their 11th and Chestnut café/live venue to open) and his new name brand (Int'l Supersport).
► When I hit Theater Exile's benefit cabaret at Neighborhood House at Christ Church in the OC, I got a firsthand look at its $4mil-plus renovations that will be unveiled this month — a clean, cool performance space, music hall and community center. This is where poor immigrant fams lived when they arrived in America. Now look! Happy birthday.
