Stop the presses! Brad Pitt paid a sort-of-but-not-really surprise visit to The Post's newsroom yesterday, and not since Denzel Washington's newsroom tour in 1993 did so many heads turn and so much workplace productivity swirl down the drain.

Pitt, 43, is in town researching his upcoming role as an investigative reporter in "State of Play," a Washington-based drama about hard-nosed journos trying to solve the murder of a young political staffer, according to production supervisor Kwame Parker.

In his signature gray tweed English racing hat, blue slacks -- not jeans! -- a tan blazer and a white button-down shirt sans tie, Pitt graciously offered a few waves and "heys" to in-house admirers while he spent four hours making the rounds with "State of Play" director Kevin Macdonald.

I don't know who originally coined the first one word name for a couple. Whoever it was, he or she should be metaphorically flogged. This is truly one of the more annoying linguistic mutations in a while. Let's see what we have.

Bill and Hillary=Billary
Ben Affleck and JLo=Bennifer
Tom and Katy=Tomkat
Brad and Angelina=Brangelina

I think Brangelina annoys me the most. It sounds like some really awful high-fiber cereal. Oh well, what would life be with petty annoyances?

Did the WaPo staffers demonstrate for Brad the officialdom-fellating technique they've perfected in the years since their paper's seemingly anomalous confrontation with authority, i.e., Watergate?

Angelina Jolie should stay away from Condi, Condi is BAD NEWS like Dick "Dart Vader" Cheney and Georgie "chimp" Bush.

Angelina possibly was just trying to share with Kindasleezy Rice how liberated she felt by coming out with her own experience as a lesbian.
Angelina, there is a lot you can do to effect positive change in the world, but even YOU do not possess the power to convince Repugs to be honest.
Don't waste your energy

I like to refer to them as "The Dick" and "Commander Codpiece."

Having the Secretary of State set aside time to meet with A. Jolie is soooo ridiculous. Just as when she begged to schedule a photo op with the Pope, Condi is now seeking to build her approval rating by standing alongside a media icon. Angie's reputation as a "healer" is dubious. Condi's reputation as a "leader" is spurious. It's hard to know who should be more embarrassed by this meeting.

Raisinmama,

Angelina is an UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador as well as a member of the Council on Foreign Relations. What is so ridiculous about her meeting with Condi? She was reporting on her recent trip to Iraq and Syria, and Iraq's 4 million refugees. Who else was she supposed to meet with, Jennifer Aniston?

For someone who looks up - I mean uses - words like spurious, I would think your post would have been more informative and intelligent.

No question about it. A. Jolie had to stoop pretty low to meet Condi. Angie is a really great person who is far above gw bush's lap puppy.
